The Last Of Us’ Pedro Pascal and Friends’ Jennifer Aniston were recently spotted grabbing dinner together, leaving fans thrilled at the idea of them being in a relationship.
Over the weekend, Pascal and Aniston were seen leaving the Tower Bar in West Hollywood after what seemed like a not so friendly three hour long date, sparking rumours of a secret romance. Fans were quick to speculate about the nature of the actors’ relationship, flooding both of their social media accounts with support.
Pedro Pascal was quick to address the rumors. At the premiere of “The Last of Us” Season 2, which is set to premiere soon, the “Gladiator 2” star expressed his admiration for Aniston, describing her as a great friend.
On Monday, he told E! News: “We’re just friends and we went to dinner with mutual friends”. He gave a similar answer to Entertainment Tonight, stating that “it was a fun martini dinner”.
Pascal is known for being exceptionally private when it comes to relationships. He was briefly linked in the 1990s to actress Maria Dizzia, with whom he appeared in an episode of “Law & Order” in 2008. Additionally, there were speculations about a relationship with his “Game of Thrones” co-star Lena Headey, though neither publicly confirmed a romance.
While his private life remains a big mystery, the actor is currently experiencing a peak in his career – taking on notable roles in major films. In 2024, he portrayed General Marcus Acacius in Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator II.” He is also set to star as Reed Richards/Mr. Fantastic in the upcoming Marvel film “The Fantastic Four: First Steps,” scheduled for release on July 25, 2025 in the United States of America.
pOSSIBLE COLLABORATION?
Aniston, on the other hand, has been known for her high-profile relationships with actors Brad Pitt and Justin Theroux. While rumors occasionally emerge regarding her dating life, she – just like Pascal – remains discreet about her personal relationships.
She too continues to be a prominent figure in the entertainment industry. Since 2019, Aniston has starred as Alex Levy in the Apple TV+ drama series “The Morning Show.” Her performance earned her a Screen Actors Guild Award, and the show has been praised for its exploration of media and culture.
Just last month, Aniston and her Morning Show co-star Reese Witherspoon jokingly invited Pascal onto the series for its next season – them grabbing dinner together shortly after that seems like very intentional timing, which has led fans to speculate that he might be joining the cast soon.
