Pedro Pascal’s Future Movies Make His Gladiator 2 Role Even More Exciting

:0:1

Pedro Pascal has starred in multiple acclaimed movies and TV shows over the last few years, and will next appear in Ridley Scott"s Gladiator II. After breaking into the mainstream with his role as Oberyn Martell in Game of Thrones season 4, Pascal"s best movie and TV show roles have cemented him as a sought-after leading man in Hollywood; this effect is primarily due to his performances in The Mandalorian and The Last of Us. His notoriety from these acclaimed shows made his casting in Gladiator II possible.
However, Gladiator II may be the last time Pascal works on a movie of this kind with a legendary director like Scott for a while, since he has committed the next few years of his career to the major franchises of Star Wars and the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The success of The Mandalorian led to two major Star Wars movie announcements, both of which will likely include Pascal"s bounty hunter character. Furthermore, Pascal"s star status also led to him being cast as Reed Richards in the MCU"s Fantastic Four reboot, meaning he will star in several upcoming MCU movies.
Gladiator 2 Could Be Pedro Pascal’s Last Big Movie Outside Star Wars & Marvel For A While Pascal's Din Djarin Has Become One Of The Most Recognizable Star Wars Characters Close After joining Gladiator 2"s cast as the Roman general Marcus Acacius, Pascal will be so busy with Star Wars and Marvel movies in the coming years, the sequel could be the last time he does a one-off movie role for a while. With Star Wars, Pascal"s Din Djarin made his debut in Star Wars" first Disney+ series The Mandalorian, which depicts the titular bounty hunter taking on the role of a guardian to Grogu. Following The Mandalorian season 3, it was announced that Din Djarin and Grogu would be appearing on the big screen in 2026"s The Mandalorian & Grogu.

Din Djarin"s role in the New Republic sets him up perfectly to be a key figure in the fight against Grand Admiral Thrawn, who made his live-action debut in Ahsoka season 1 and is expected to be a major villain in both Ahsoka season 2 and Dave Filoni"s untitled Star Wars movie. While Pascal has not yet been confirmed for this future Star Wars film, there"s a good possibility he will have a major role as Filoni"s movie will likely serve as a major climactic event for the "Mandoverse."
