What is the moment that makes Pedro Pascal humble? The actor revealed the situation in which he felt “completely humiliated”
“I can’t go into it! I can’t describe how stressed I am when I talk about that movie, because it’s definitely the most important thing I’ve ever done. I’m very excited, but it’s hard to step away from the film’s legacy. I think it’s very well written and it pays homage to the first one, but it’s something that I think I can comfortably jump in and make my own.”
