Fans are laughing at Neeson’s quip, “There are no zombies, no superheroes, and Pedro Pascal isn’t in this movie.”
His joke makes it clear that Pascal’s career seems to be on the upswing after 20 years of playing smaller roles on TV and stage. The 50-year-old cast has appeared in numerous new productions.
Those roles however have included the lead in Netflix series Narcos as well as Star Wars series The Mandalorian and HBO’s hit show The Last of Us. He has also featured in films such as Wonder Woman 1984, The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent and Gladiator II.
Along with Dakota Johnson, he will appear in the romantic comedy Materialists and Modern Western Eddington this year. His net worth, according to Parade magazine, is around $10 million based on his recent success.
Pascal has managed to keep his private life largely a secret despite his high profile. In March, he made headlines after being spotted tying up with Jennifer Aniston, a former Friends star.
The pair were spotted together in Los Angeles at a dinner that “lasted three hours”, as reported by The Mirror. They then spent the night at the Tower Bar at the Sunset Hotel in West Hollywood.
According to photos taken by the Daily Mail, Aniston and Pascal arrived separately at 8 p.m. and left separately three hours later. After engaging in conversation outside the parking valet area, the two quickly parted ways.
Pascal and Aniston’s dinner date comes amid rumors that he might join her Apple TV show, The Morning Show. Pascal is reportedly single despite dating rumors.
Liam and Pamela Anderson have remained unmarried, but they are also keeping their relationship status a secret. Natasha Richardson, a British actress, and Neeson were married from 1994 until she tragically passed away in 2009 due to a head injury.
The close bond between Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson has been the topic of conversation around the world as the pair continue to remain silent over whether or not they’re in a relationship. But it looks as though the writing was on the wall as far back as last year when the Taken star declared his love for the former Baywatch icon.
Liam, 73, openly admitted to being “madly in love” with the mother of two in an interview with People magazine.
He stated to the publication at the time, “First of all, I’m madly in love with her.” She is simply fantastic to work with, he continued. I’ll be open and honest with you about how much I can recommend her. No soaring egos. She simply arrives to do the work. She is incredibly simple to work with and funny. She’ll do a fantastic job in the movie.
