Pedro Pascal has opened up about his unusual coffee order, which went viral back in 2023.
The Last of Us actor, 49, had run into a fan outside a Starbucks coffee outlet, whereupon he revealed his go-to order: an iced quad espresso with extra ice and six shots of espresso.
During an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Pascal reflected on the moment, joking that it was a “violating” experience for him.
Host Jimmy Kimmel began by describing the order in question as “insane”.
“I cannot begin to tell you how violating this was!” Pascal said. “There’s so much context to why it has become six shots of espresso,” he continued. “It was always a quad but then I feel like the cups got bigger and, I don’t know, the shots got less strong. At some point, it became six.
“It was an incredibly private morning ritual that I never wanted anyone to know about,” he added.
Pascal also explained that after consuming one of the highly caffeinated drinks, he would then refrain from drinking “more coffee for the rest of the day.”
“This isn’t even coffee. This is a methaccino at this point!” Kimmel joked.
Pascal replied: “You sip it and you get really high, and you answer emails and stuff.”
This week, Pascal also poured cold water – or should that be cold brew? – over speculation that he was dating former Friends star Jennifer Aniston after the pair was photographed dining together.
“We’re friends,” Pascal told E! News on the red carpet for the season two premiere of The Last of Us on March 24.
The Last of Us, an acclaimed HBO series set in a post-apocalyptic US, will return for its second season next month.
Pascal fronts the series alongside Bella Ramsey, the British actor who last week spoke about being diagnosed with autism.
“I’ve spoken a bit about neurodivergence before, but I always for some reason didn’t want to… I felt like I didn’t want to say what it was… Shoot,” they told British Vogue.
“I got diagnosed with autism when I was filming Season 1 of The Last of Us.”
