Pedro Pascal Sheds Light on Fatherhood Dreams and Keeping Romance Private

Pedro Pascal is fiercely protective of his private life, hiding it from the public as much as his Mandalorian character hides his face

Pedro Pascal Spills All About His Private Life and Daddy Dreams (or Lack Thereof)!

Get ready for a juicy, behind-the-scenes look at the life of one of Hollywood's hottest stars, Pedro Pascal! In a candid new interview with Vanity Fair, the 50-year-old Materialists hunk opens up about his private life, his struggles with insecurities, and whether he'll ever become a dad. And trust us, you won't want to miss these bombshell revelations!

First up, let's talk about that infamous "daddy" moniker that's been following Pedro around like a shadow. Well, it turns out that nickname might just be a role-related thing (wink, wink). After all, he has played his fair share of father figures on screen - from the Mandalorian's paternal vibes to Joel's protective instincts in The Last of Us. So, is Pedro ready to take on daddy duties IRL? Not so fast, folks! When asked about it, the charming actor quipped, "I want a shortcut to an interesting human being, who is my child, who will go see something that I want to see." In other words, he's not ruling out the possibility entirely, but it's not exactly at the top of his bucket list either.

When the SAG Award winner does take a plus-one with him to an event, it's usually his sister Lux, who is also an actress;  Pictured in London in November 2024

Now, about those private life rumors. Pedro sets the record straight: "I'm very unprivate in my private life... I just know that personal relationships are such a complex thing to navigate even without having this enormous lens on them." Translation? He might keep his love life under wraps, but it's not because he's trying to be mysterious - it's just that personal relationships can be super tricky, especially when the paparazzi is lurking around every corner.

But what about those dating rumors, you ask? Well, Pedro has a clever way of dealing with them: he always brings his sister Lux (also an actress) as his plus-one to events. Talk about a sibling support system! "She's not only my sister, but she's also my best friend," he gushes.

And speaking of friends, Pedro has formed some amazing bonds on set - like his BFF-turned-co-star Nico Parker, the daughter of Thandiwe Newton. According to Nico, Pedro is just the bee's knees: "We got on so quickly... He's so lovable that anyone could get on with him anytime... he's just the best." Aw, isn't that just the sweetest?
