Would Pedro Pascal be open to a role in the MCU? TheLastOfUs star has a pretty eager response to the idea. 'I do want that. I want to be in movies.'
Pedro Pascal has finally revealed whether he would want to take a Marvel Cinematic Universe role, if Marvel Studios comes knocking. Pascal first came into prominence after appearing in Game of Thrones as the short-lived Dornishman Oberyn Martell. The swagger and arrogance he brought to the role became the turning point he needed, and he quickly began featuring in starring roles in Kingsman: The Golden Circle, The Mandalorian, Wonder Woman 1984, and the upcoming The Last of Us.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Yet, while Pascal has starred in several action projects, he has yet to appear in the MCU, despite having Disney connections through The Mandalorian. While it would be easy to assume that Pascal simply isn't interested in a major role within one of Marvel's franchises, the truth is anything but, as The Mandalorian success exceeded Pascal's wildest expectations, and he's interested in seeing more of it.
Who Could Pedro Pascal Play In The MCU? For Pascal, the only major hurdle would be fitting the MCU into his busy schedule and finding the perfect character for him to embody. Much like Robert Downey Jr. is the perfect Iron Man, Pascal needs to find his own niche. With that in mind, it would be easy to mark him down as Richard Rider , given that Pascal prefers wearing a helmet on The Mandalorian, and Nova famously draws his power from a helmet.
Yet funneling Pascal into the role of warriors-who-wear-a-helmet is a disservice to his skill. The charisma that he displayed as Oberyn shouldn't be disregarded and could easily come into play if Pascal is interested in picking up the role of Gambit in the MCU. A much less serious character than many of Pascal's other roles, Gambit still has an edge to him that could benefit from Pascal's portrayal.
Of course, Gambit would be a demanding role, given his importance to the wider Marvel universe as one of the more popular X-Men. If Pascal is interested in a smaller role that would give him more time to continue to star in such shows as The Mandalorian and The Last of Us, while also featuring in movies, he might be interested in Corsair, Cyclops' father.
