Pedro Pascal is one of Hollywood’s brightest stars.
Born in Chile, he moved to the US with his family as a child and pursued acting, eventually studying at New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts.
For years, Pedro took on minor roles in TV shows like Law & Order and Buffy the Vampire Slayer before his breakout moment came in 2014 — thanks to Game of Thrones.
Today, Pedro is a bonafide star with a SAG Award, and Golden Globe and Emmy Award nominations under his belt.
Not to mention he’s beloved for his charismatic and down-to-earth personality.
