Bella Ramsey Reportedly Eyed For 'Big' Marvel MCU Role
Bella Ramsey became a household name for The Last of Us, a live-action HBO series based on the video game franchise of the same name. Now it looks like Marvel Studios could be eyeing Bella Ramsey for a role in the MCU.
As the Marvel Cinematic Universe continues to grow, so does its need for major stars, so it's no surprise that Ramsey's name made it to the studio's list. As shared via insider @MyTimeToShineH on X, this role would be a 'big' one for the shared multimedia franchise.
With the MCU comprising both theatrical films and television, including their own Disney Plus exclusives and specials, there are endless ways Bella Ramsey could appear in a future project. And, if it's a big role, that means Ramsey could be a recurring character that might have a part to play in both movies and television.
Here's what the insider shared:

Of course, there wasn't much information shared beyond the fact that the role would be 'big,' so it's still unknown what part she could play if they were chosen for the MCU. However, with the studio introducing a new X-Men reboot, that potential superhero team alone could feature a number of characters suitable for Ramsey.
Additionally, with a Young Avengers movie and several Multiverse-centric projects on the way, Ramsey could play a member of the titular superhero team or any number of variants for heroes that have already been established in the MCU. Ultimately, Marvel Studios could come up with any number of spots for Ramsey to fit into the franchise, so we'll have to see what happens on that front.
Stay tuned to ScreenGeek for any additional Marvel Cinematic Universe updates as we have them, including whether or not Bella Ramsey could have the opportunity to play in the MCU as a major character going forward.

Dear Abby: My family thinks I'm making up my long-distance boyfriend
DEAR ABBY: I am a woman in my mid-20s who has had only abusive, toxic and horrendous relationships after entering adulthood. Since high school, I have spent years trying to find a 'good guy' who will treat me with respect and love me unconditionally. I made a friend online two years ago who I began recording music and podcasts with. He lives in another state. He's smart, witty and sarcastic, and we hit it off well as long-distance friends. I am smitten with him, and he is with me, and we are a 'thing' now. In a few months, he and a mutual friend are flying here to see me and to attend a concert. He says he wants to transfer schools and attend school here. As someone who's been single for three years, I feel ready to love again and be with someone, and my gut instincts and intuition feel safe with him. The only roadblock I'm worried about is my family. They don't believe my relationship is 'real.' They think I'm delusional for being with someone long-distance (even though my mom met my stepdad in a different state). I also don't know how I'll be able to explain this to my grandparents or my very strict, racist dad. How do I respond to people who call me delusional? — SEEMS LIKE THE REAL THING DEAR SEEMS: Although you have known this person for two years, you may be jumping the gun. While he may be everything you say he is (and he says he is), you can't be certain he is really Prince Charming until you meet in person. That he is considering transferring to a nearby school to be closer to you is a good thing. It will give you an opportunity to judge whether he is really the person he presents himself to be and allow your family to get to know him. It will also provide him an opportunity — if the romance continues to develop — to decide if he would welcome them as in-laws, in spite of the racism you so casually mentioned in passing. DEAR ABBY: I know I'll be chastised for having these thoughts, but I need advice. I thought I was supportive to my friend who lost her husband after a four-year battle with Alzheimer's disease. We have known each other for 25 years. She has become unresponsive and no longer asks me about anything. I check on her almost daily, but she never makes the first text. I also send cards, which she does not acknowledge. Her husband died more than a year ago, and I know I shouldn't judge her grieving, but I thought she would be better by this time. Widows ask why their friends desert them after a death, but what about the widows who desert friends? — LONELY IN THE EAST DEAR LONELY: Some individuals are more resilient than others. While you may have been able to get over the loss of a spouse, parent, child or pet quickly, others are not so lucky. The sad fact is, there is no set timetable for grieving. Invite her out to lunch so you can talk face to face instead of relying on cards and texts. If you do, it may help her to recover more quickly. Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Contact Dear Abby at or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Patrick Schwarzenegger on his breakout "White Lotus" role
"Every time I'm out in, like, nature, that's kind of where I like to do my prayers or gratitude list," said Patrick Schwarzenegger. These days he is counting his blessings, even though the role he was recently blessed with is anything but reverent. He plays the much-talked-about (and much-hated) Saxon Ratliff, the eldest son of a wealthy family visiting Thailand, in the latest incarnation of HBO's "The White Lotus." Saxon is a chiseled car crash – a sex-obsessed, protein shake-chugging bro who is so irredeemably into his own masculinity, he offends even his own sister. How do you even audition for a part like that? Schwarzenegger says he was only given a short sentence describing Saxon's excitable personality: "The wording was that ''He flirted with anything.' So, I just took the first few seconds and just kind of, you know, stared at the camera in a loving way." Did he have any reservations? "Yes, I was worried," he said. "I didn't want him to come off as just this one-note character." And early on he didn't even know yet just how sexually awkward things were going to get. "When I was auditioning, they had said, 'Are you okay with, know, performing things sexually? Are you okay being nude at times?'" Schwarzenegger recalled. "So, I knew an idea of where it could go. I didn't know to what extent the show would go." To watch a trailer for Season 3 of "The White Lotus," click on the video player below: The series' creator, Mike White, has spent three seasons pushing the envelope, writing exotic whodunits that, along the way, skewer the rich and privileged vacationing at White Lotus resorts all around the world – a world he knew Patrick probably understood. Schwarzenegger said, "There was a joke because he was always like, 'You don't look like you're rich. You're not walking rich. Aren't you a Schwarzenegger? Aren't you a Kennedy? Aren't you rich in real life? You don't look like you're rich at all!'" The show's first season, set in Hawaii, debuted during the pandemic in 2021, and it hit Schwarzenegger and his family head-on. "It was me, Abby, my fiancée, and my mom," he said. "We lived together, us three, during the pandemic. So, you can imagine how fun that was! And then they were always like, 'You need to be in the show, you need to audition, this is perfect.'" His fiancée is fashion model Abby Champion; his mom is journalist and member of the Kennedy clan Maria Shriver; and his dad, well, that goes without saying. Arnold Schwarzenegger has said that he didn't recognize his son in the role. "It would be a little bit alarming if he did recognize a lot of those characteristics!" Patrick laughed. His best friends are his family. They're also his greatest fans. When he got the part, they were tears all around. Patrick Schwarzenegger has emerged from "The White Lotus," as a standout among standouts – the kind of breakout he hopes will put to rest any suspicions about nepotism. In a recent father-and-son chat on Variety's "Actors on Actors," Arnold Schwarzenegger said, "To me, the name Schwarzenegger always meant a big plus." Patrick revealed that he worried his name might get in the way: "There were times earlier in my career where I was wondering, Does it makes sense to go under some sort of alias? Does it make sense to go under a different name?" "Well, I'm glad that you kept the name, 'cause now I can take credit," Arnold said. "My son! The apple doesn't fall far from the tree." Patrick idolized his dad growing up, spending time on movie sets that became his playground. By the time he was 13, he was on his own sets, but he says he rarely brought up his dad. "I mean, I always know that there's, you know, my last name, there's connections, there's, you know, things that are gonna help me, but I wanted to try to take a different path than that." He did, however, follow his dad's path on matters of money – how to run a business, how to create a brand. "My dad put me in charge of his memorabilia when I was 10," said Patrick. "And so, I would take these different photos of him, you know, at Muscle Beach, and we would frame them. I took a replica of the Conan swords and get him to sign them, and I would sell them for $10,000 a pop. It was all for nonprofit. I didn't make any money, but it was to understand how to sell." He actually majored in business as USC, starting college just about a year after his parents had left the California Governor's office. Politics has been in his genes, after all – and so has the idea of public service. His grandfather, Sargent Shriver, was the founding director of the Peace Corps. His grandmother, Eunice Kennedy Shriver, founded the Special Olympics. Asked if he's thought about going into politics himself, Patrick replied, "I think it was instilled in us to find ways to give back at an early age. It doesn't have to be through public office, to find ways to give back." Through it all, his focus on acting remained pretty singular. He spent a decade in acting class, building a resume one part at a time, recently acting opposite Colin Firth in the HBO mini-series, "The Staircase." That, he said, "was the first time that the people in the industry were able to see me in a dramatic role. ... Before, people maybe didn't take me serious. They didn't know if I was really, you know, in it for the long haul, was I really working on my craft?" WATCH: "The White Lotus" clip: Saxon and Timothy In this scene, Saxon Ratliff (Patrick Schwarzenegger) demands to know from his dad, Timothy (Jason Isaacs) whether everything is OK at the office. [Spoiler alert: Everything is NOT OK at the office.] He hopes his next role will be a character with a few less character flaws than Saxon Ratliff. That said, Patrick Schwarzenegger would happily check back into the White Lotus anytime Mike White asks. "I said, if you don't hire me again, I'll come and be the head of craft services," he said. "I'll come and hire me as your scouting location guy because I just want to come in and be part of the journey." For more info: Story produced by Reid Orvedahl. Editor: Lauren Barnello. See also:
