Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey enjoying ‘Xanadu’ is incredibly soothing.

If you’re still feeling the emotional impact of that recent episode of The Last of Us Season 2, here’s something that might bring you a bit of comfort. In a promo video shared by HBO Max, stars Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey conclude their conversation by vibing out to a song that answers the question: “What song would you choose to sum up our time working together?” The answer is none other than Olivia Newton-John’s classic 1980 hit “Xanadu,” a whimsical tale of a place few dared to venture and the love that blossomed there. “Very Last of Us,” remarks Pascal, calling it the “theme song.”

In the clip above (located at the top and at 5:54), Ramsey shares that they bought the record for Pascal. In an extended version on social media, she recalls a moment when Pascal texted her with his new number, referencing the “Xanadu” song to confirm his identity: “Hi, it’s Pedro. Got a new number,” he said, sharing the link to the track.

Watching this dynamic duo play the song, with Ramsey singing and Pascal as her backup dancer, might just provide a moment of joy for those still processing the intensity of Sunday’s episode and its significant moments—a scene that you can also enjoy featuring Ramsey and Pascal’s reactions.

The Last of Us Season 2 is currently streaming on Max, with new episodes airing weekly on Sundays at 9 p.m. ET on HBO.
