The show’s numbers are going toe to toe with those of series like Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon, which is saying a lot. The Last of Us has also confirmed the global male star status of Pedro Pascal, a 47-year-old actor who was completely unknown 10 years ago. Earlier this month, Jimmy Fallon summed up all of the success the actor has had the over the last decade: “ The Last of Us is the biggest thing in the world right now. But then you also have the premiere of the third season of The Mandalorian in March.” And went on with the list: “ Game of Thrones, homerun. Narcos, homerun. The Mandalorian, homerun and now The Last of Us. Come on, man, I’m jealous!” Pascal, who seemed to be in disbelief of his accomplishments, joked in retort: “And that’s the end.” To which Fallon replied, “No way, it’s just the beginning.” He’s not the only one praising the Chilean actor: Robert Rodriquez, who directed him in the Netflix film We Can Be Heroes, said said that Pascal reminds him of Harrison Ford: “He can be funny, he can be very intense, he can be very heroic. But he’s also very human and warm.” The exhibition, ADHD Hyper Fixation And Why It Looks Like I Love Pedro Pascal, was created by artist Heidi Gentle Burrell, who said it was a “lovely feeling” that her muse was aware of her work, and she did not blame Rhodes Robb for missing Pascal, saying she “deserves a day off”.

Veronica is Pedro’s mother, and the actor explained part of her story in his opening monologue that night. “I was born in Chile and nine months later, my family had to escape Pinochet and brought me and my sisters to the United States. They were very brave and without them I would not be in this wonderful country.” Pedro Pascal, wearing Prada, posed for EL PAÍS in 2020.

Following his mother’s death, which shattered him, Pedro lost his agent and his career slowed down. As a tribute to his mom, he decided to change his last name to hers. But there was another reason for the name change as well. “Americans had a hard time pronouncing Balmaceda. It was exhausting.” He also considered changing Pedro to Alexander (after Fanny and Alexander, one of his favorite movies) for similar reasons. “I was willing to do absolutely anything to work more.” When directors read Pedro’s name they expected the appearance of a racial stereotype, something like Pancho Villa. But the man they saw looked more European than Latino. “Why are you so white but your name is Pedro?” he was asked. The answer, he told EL PAÍS in a 2017 interview, lies in his roots: “My grandfather was Basque and my grandmother [was] from Mallorca, [Spain].” A unique user identifier cookie, set by Microsoft Application Insights software, that enables counting of the number of users accessing the application over time.

The next day he woke up anxious. “The first thing that occurred to me was like, ‘Oh man, I really want that job.’ …I’m going to wait by the phone all day long,’” until he looked at his cell phone and saw dozens of congratulatory messages. He had gotten the role but was unable to remember the conversation in which he had accepted it. It seemed like part of a dream. Perhaps that of a child in exile, watching HBO in his room.She added: "There's a part two to the show coming soon which we'd actually arranged even before he went along to see it, so there'll be all new stuff.
