In a recent appearance on “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” actor Pedro Pascal delighted fans with his wit, charm, and insider details about his upcoming projects. Known for his roles in popular series like “Game of Thrones,” “Narcos,” and “The Mandalorian,” Pascal is now gearing up for season 2 of “The Last of Us,” where he will reprise his role as Joel. The highly anticipated season is set to premiere on April 13th on HBO.
During the interview, Kimmel playfully questioned Pascal about the pronunciation of his name, to which the actor responded with a good-natured explanation. The two also reminisced about past encounters, with Pascal revealing that it had been several years since his last appearance on the show. Pascal also jokingly shared that he had left a WhatsApp group with his 34 first cousins, causing a bit of family tension.
As the discussion turned to Pascal’s career success, Kimmel asked about his ability to consistently choose engaging roles. Pascal humbly attributed it to luck rather than skill, promising that his streak couldn’t possibly last forever. The conversation then took an unexpected turn as Kimmel pressed Pascal about his “insane” coffee order, which had gone viral. Pascal admitted to ordering a cup with six shots of espresso, much to the amusement of the audience.
Addressing his international fame as an actor from Chile, Kimmel asked if Pascal considered himself the most famous actor from his home country. Despite his numerous achievements, Pascal modestly acknowledged the presence of many talented actors from Chile and expressed gratitude for his supportive family back home.
The interview closed with a teasing mention of Pascal’s role as Reed Richards, also known as Mr. Fantastic, in the upcoming “Fantastic Four” film. Though Pascal remained coy about revealing any details, Kimmel quizzed him about the stretching abilities of his character. Pascal, ever the professional, remained tight-lipped but hinted at exciting surprises to come.
Fans eagerly await the premiere of “The Last of Us” season 2 to witness Pascal’s portrayal of Joel once again. In the meantime, they can catch up on previous episodes of the show on HBO Max. With his charismatic personality and impressive acting skills, Pedro Pascal continues to captivate audiences across different platforms and genres.
