“I’m gonna have a panic attack”: Disgusting Allegations Against Pedro Pascal For His Viral Moment With Vanessa Kirby Can be Proven Wrong Looking Back at His Past On Stage Struggles
Pedro Pascal and Vanessa Kirby shared a sweet moment at Comic-Con which offended some people. His past on-stage struggles proves otherwise.
Pedro Pascal is currently one of the most in-demand actors in the industry. From humble beginnings to his scene-stealing role in Game of Thrones, the actor has come a long way. He is now starring in some of the biggest films and TV projects including The Mandalorian, the DCU, The Last of Us, and the upcoming Fantastic Four movie.
The actor recently promoted the latter at San Diego Comic-Con with his co-stars Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach. At one point, Pascal was seen touching Kirby’s arm and they ultimately held hands after. Some saw the behavior as creepy and it received a significant amount of criticism. However, Pedro has been known to have on-stage anxiety and has found various ways to deal with it.
Pedro Pascal Has a Specific Pose That Helps Deal With His Anxiety Amidst The Spotlight
Pedro Pascal’s rise to fame and his appearances in high-profile projects in recent years has been welcomed by fans, especially those who loved him in Game of Thrones. He is set to play Reed Richard in the upcoming MCU film The Fantastic Four: First Steps. The cast made an appearance in San Diego to promote the film and Pascal rubbing his hand on Vanessa Kirby‘s arm at one point turned some people off.
The behavior received some backlash but it seems fans have judged the actor too harshly without knowing his intentions behind it. During an event for Los Angeles last year, Pascal was seen putting his left hand on his torso. When his co-star Bella Ramsey asked him about this pose, he said “You know why? It’s because my anxiety is right here” (via Deadline). It was his way of calming himself and controlling his anxiety.
As stated by Huffpost, The Last of Us star has always posed in this way in most red carpet photoshoots and when placed under the spotlight. At this year’s SAG awards, Pascal’s nervousness and anxiety were observed as he accepted Best Actor in a Drama Series as he told audiences (via X),
I’m a little drunk. Uh, I thought I could get drunk…I’m gonna have a panic attack, and I’m gonna leave.
It was indeed a sweet gesture and an adorable chemistry that the two share which has been twisted by some people. The two stars were truly comfortable with each other and one’s mental health and how they deal with it must be understood and taken seriously.
