About this listen
Pedro Pascal commanded headlines this week after dazzling at the 2025 Emmys on Sunday, where his all-white double-breasted suit paired with dark shades landed him on nearly every best-dressed list according to Elle. He was nominated for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series for his portrayal of Joel Miller in The Last of Us season 2, further cementing his reputation as one of the most in-demand leading men. The show earned multiple nominations, including Outstanding Drama Series, while Bella Ramsey, his costar and friend, was also up for Lead Actress. In an Esquire interview on the red carpet, Ramsey shared how the set vibe was charged with fresh energy, and Pascal admitted that he and Ramsey kept breaking into laughter during intense scenes, a habit they jokingly called a giggle problem. Pascal’s sense of camaraderie and emotional range on The Last of Us continues to draw critical acclaim and audience devotion, indicating his biographical significance in shaping prestige television’s current era.
His packed 2025 roster continues to draw industry buzz, with major turns in The Fantastic Four: First Steps—his Marvel Cinematic Universe debut—as well as the films Materialists and Eddington. Deadline captured Pascal’s reflections on the unique pressure and excitement of joining such an iconic pop culture property, linking it to the nerves he’d felt with earlier roles in Game of Thrones, Narcos, Star Wars, and The Last of Us. He emphasized the responsibility to meet fan expectations while also being true to himself as an actor—a balancing act that has defined his career trajectory. Looking forward, Jon Favreau returns Pascal to Star Wars with The Mandalorian and Grogu, set for release in May 2026, a project likely to dominate entertainment coverage well into next year.
Social media remains abuzz with Pedro Pascal mania. A Threads post from his fan account on September 15 rallied followers with a motivational message, showing the grassroots affection his fans sustain week after week. Meanwhile, a fresh studio photo of Pascal posted by @dailycosmicmarvel on Threads immediately grabbed attention, signaling that his appeal cuts across fandoms and platforms.
So whether he is shining on the red carpet, headlining within fan-driven juggernauts, or charming his way through awards season interviews, Pedro Pascal’s momentum this week underscores his ongoing ascent as a defining onscreen presence of our era.
