The teenage star of The Last of Us has said she believes its popularity has made a second series "likely".
Bella Ramsey, 19, from Leicestershire, has previously had roles in Game of Thrones and Lena Dunham's film Catherine Called Birdy.
She plays the lead role of Ellie alongside fellow Game of Thrones alumnus Pedro Pascal in the HBO series.
She said: "If people keep watching, I think [a second series] is pretty likely. It's down to the guys at HBO.
"There's nothing confirmed yet so we'll have to wait and see."
The series, based on the hit PlayStation game, has been described as "the best video game adaptation ever".
It follows the journey of a man and a teenage girl as they travel through the US during a zombie apocalypse.
Ramsey said: "The Last of Us is essentially about a man called Joel who meets this little, brassy, foul-mouthed kid called Ellie.
"The two of them form an unlikely bond that ends up being stronger than anything else."
