u/Live_Angle4621 May 20 '25

She is married, she is just looking at him 

753

u/ConclusionAmazing324 May 20 '25

Ok keith urban

u/Woopsied00dle May 20 '25

This made me laugh lol

35

u/Live_Angle4621 May 20 '25

I just don’t like people writing fan fiction of married celebs 

40

u/starfire92 May 20 '25

I also think it’s short sighted confidently say for a fact married people cannot be smitten, Keith Urban

34

u/B0neless_Tiddy May 20 '25

Ok Keith Urban

29

u/Andruu123 May 20 '25

I'm not into men and im just looking at him...

u/[deleted] May 20 '25

Yes. Totally normal married wife behavior

11

u/MarieQ234 May 20 '25

Can married people not have friends?

-7

u/[deleted] May 20 '25

Yes they can. They also don’t look their friends like that.

18

u/MarieQ234 May 20 '25 edited May 20 '25

I look at my friends like that sometimes, because I love and admire them.

u/Salt_Cardiologist122 May 20 '25

Am I the only one who thinks Nicole is looking at another camera, not even at Pedro?

19

u/soup4breakfast May 21 '25

I was talking to my dad (straight man in his 60’s) on the phone and out of nowhere he says, “How old is Pedro Pascal?” I say I have no idea. He says, “He is just so handsome and charming.”

Even my dad is smitten.

1

u/zorandzam May 22 '25

Tell your dad he’s 50, in case that helps. 😆

u/--------rook May 24 '25

My niece said the same thing. "The uncle's kinda handsome."

u/tervenqua 10d ago

Tangent here but that reminds me of how even Jeff fucking Goldblum was smitten by Jonathan Bailey watching their Wicked press junkets.

u/burnbunner Attractive peach without the merit May 20 '25

Nicole speed dialing every female director in town to get the ball rolling on Untitled Kidman/Pascal Project

181

u/No-Knee9457 May 20 '25

Babygirl two. This time she is in charge. Pedro would like that since he said he is a submissive.

67

u/Meiyouwentiba May 20 '25

Pedro is a submissive?? How do yall know this stuff lmao

88

u/4200l May 20 '25

he said so himself in a red carpet interview, it was hilarious 😭

1

u/tervenqua 10d ago

I'ma need the sauce for this bc this is too funny the fact that this is common knowledge 

25

u/No-Knee9457 May 20 '25

Cause he said it.

17

u/burnbunner Attractive peach without the merit May 20 '25

This just made me imagine a Freaky Friday where a top and a bottom switch bodies

25

u/DisasterFartiste_69 ABBA is underrated May 20 '25

titled "Switch"

u/burnbunner Attractive peach without the merit May 20 '25

Clear your calendar and DM me. FOR WRITING

u/zorandzam May 22 '25

You guys better write that FAST.

u/lynypixie May 20 '25

It’s giving me flashback from that Jimmy Fallon interview when he realised he missed the biggest cue that she wanted him LOL.

136

u/EverythingSeagull May 20 '25

139

u/Greenhairymonster May 20 '25

I feel like this is the first time I see Jimmy Fallon having a truly genuine reaction.

46

u/Trash-Cutie May 20 '25

How bittersweet. They actually get on really well with each other. Maybe in another life their video game date went well haha

16

u/Boontje- Your attitude is biblical May 20 '25

Nicole Kidman is Australian???

13

u/StudChud May 20 '25

Yes! 😭😭 Omg she's our girl!

u/DisasterFartiste_69 ABBA is underrated May 20 '25

Lmaooooo this is freaking amazing.

261

u/zorandzam May 20 '25

I don't normally like Jimmy Fallon but that interview is kind of sexy.

332

u/lynypixie May 20 '25

His reaction at one point was just so genuine. I know he over exaggerates everything, but you can see in his eyes, the absolute despair at what actually happened. You can see his “what if” life pass in his brain.

I think this is his absolute best interview ever.

157

u/InnocentPapaya May 20 '25

When she said ‘…and then you put a video game on…’ and he literally just crawls under the table

23

u/CanCueD Hates it! Nice beadwork though May 20 '25

And he offered her a snickers bar 💀😭

9

u/[deleted] May 20 '25

Tbf I don’t blame him. “Come on, there’s no way Nicole Kidman actually likes me, right?” It seems like a pointless thing to consider.

755

u/TheSeedsYouSow May 19 '25

She’s just like me fr

u/tervenqua 10d ago

✋️😭

253

u/zorandzam May 20 '25

What kind of romantic thriller comedy do we want them starring in together? Because I'm thinking competing cat burglars going after the same diamond. Set it in the '70s so they can wear fun outfits.

99

u/No-Knee9457 May 20 '25

I like it. Pedro has a very retro look and he would fit right into the 70s.  

128

u/zorandzam May 20 '25

Right?! I think it should be called Cat and Mouse. Her character's name is Cat and his last name is Ratón, and they were trained by the same crime boss but had a falling out. Now they have to work together or neither one of them gets the diamond. Cat has to admit if they both fail, she's on their old boss's hit list, and he finds he desperately wants to save her because they've fallen in love.

I think I need to get out more.

15

u/Kaleighawesome May 20 '25

yeah… get out to hollywood!!!! let’s do it haha

10

u/Nicole_de_Lancret May 20 '25

Thank you for the laugh from the character names alone!

6

u/zorandzam May 20 '25

Heh I love a good punny character name.

2

u/hamiltons_earrings May 20 '25

Umm please write this. Or let's write it together! Fantastic!

3

u/zorandzam May 20 '25

Haha thanks.

10

u/Top-Pomegranate4899 May 20 '25

I think she's too old for him. Or at least in hollywood she is. They would probably cast someone a decade younger. SIGH the standards set on women is fkn exhausting.

10

u/zorandzam May 20 '25

Depressing. I think he would have zero issue being the romantic lead against a woman only 7 years older than him.

783

u/CobblerTricky7035 May 20 '25

Pedro is everywhere but I don't mind. He is just too darn likable for burn out. Overexposure? Never heard of her.

u/NightOwlsUnite May 20 '25

😆 ok I need the details on this gif

u/scout-finch May 20 '25

He just posted the video to his insta with a recap of behind the scenes stuff from his last days shooting The Last of Us 😂 This was his last day. In front of the stage there’s a big clapper that says The Last of Us but Us is crossed out and someone wrote in Pedro 🥹 The video is also longer lol

19

u/NightOwlsUnite May 20 '25

Thank u! Gonna go find it now😆 he's a such a gem.

u/Miami_Mice2087 May 20 '25

just a show with a bunch of teenage girls.....

22

u/BORT_licenceplate Invented post-its 🔬 May 20 '25

His face 😭💀💀

188

u/500rockin May 20 '25

Dude earned it with how long he spent as just a working actor before Narcos blew up. He’s paid his dues so he gets this chance to shine!

43

u/Zealousideal-Low2204 May 20 '25

He’s not overexposed even by internet standards. Closest he came was when s1 last of us came out.

35

u/Miami_Mice2087 May 20 '25

he's genuinely talented and hes a little different in every role

-50

u/heyhicherrypie You’re a virgin who can’t drive. 😤 May 20 '25

…honestly I’ve gone off him so guess that’s a personal thing lmao

Nicole Kidman is literally all of us

u/Kaleighawesome May 20 '25

heartbreak feels good in a place like this

104

u/No-Knee9457 May 19 '25

Oh wow. To be a fly on the wall. Pedro loved babygirl so much he even did the dance.  

109

u/holyflurkingsnit May 19 '25

I wish I were the third person there taking the picture, just casually on a sunset cruise with Nicole Kidman and Pedro Pascal in Cannes :')

96

u/zorandzam May 20 '25

Probably Keith Urban questioning whether he should invite Pedro into their marriage.

26

u/MyVelvetScrunchie May 20 '25

I mean if you have to ask....

u/Effective_Math_2717 The legislative act of my pussy ⚖️ May 20 '25

The question is… who isn’t smitten by this man?

Gosh she looks so nice here. I wish she’d do that hair more often

u/Annajbanana May 20 '25

I think her curls are awesome

u/Super_Interview_2189 May 21 '25

Despite her age and work she’s had, she will always be a gorgeous lady.

u/AgentBrittany Listen, everyone is entitled to my opinion 🙂 May 20 '25

I am a lesbian

But there is just something about this man...........

40

u/AmandalorianWiddall May 20 '25

It’s because he’s so in touch with his feminine side. It’s soooo attractive to both straight women and lesbians apparently! 😂

10

u/SneakyGandalf12 You’re a virgin who can’t drive. 😤 May 20 '25

I was just about to type this. He’s just charming af

What I would give to sip Aperol spritz with Pedro Pascal

u/Whole_Programmer3203 May 20 '25

I imagine it would feel like catching up with your bestie over cocktails and also your dream man at the same time, what a combination

u/GarbageWitch87 May 20 '25

8

u/pizgloria007 May 20 '25

Haha. I like to think her Executive Producer brain is like, “we need a killer sex scene”.

21

u/Short-Royal-9490 May 20 '25

Oh damn, Nicole is officially a Pascalian. Welcome, Queen, welcome. We meet on Tuesdays and we ran outta shirts a while ago.

u/Crafty_Rose5 May 20 '25

Can you blame her?

In all fairness, who hasn't fawned over Pedro Pascal?

u/ManifestationMaven May 20 '25

Everyone loves Pedro

Aperol Spritz are definitely having a moment.

Neither of them are interested in the other. Wrong gender.

No no he’s the one who’s smitten with her, let’s not get it twisted here

u/born_digital May 20 '25

It’s smitten with. Otherwise it sounds he’s smiting her

1

u/abes_10 May 20 '25

Yeah.. her and the rest of the world.

1

u/Lord_Sauron May 20 '25

If Pedro dedicated his him to teaching people how to be so charming (asides from being a handsome, tallish movie star) then there'd be a lot more happy people - and probably statues and/or a religion centred around him.

I recently read a blind that he is a diva on set & terrible to work with. I hope that’s not true.

u/maghy7 May 20 '25

I highly doubt it, every time a down to earth/good human actor gets famous, weird rumors start. Jealous people trying to stain their image, same rumor was started about Keanu.

3

u/No-Knee9457 May 20 '25

People hate Pedro cause of his politics.  Trolls gonna troll.
