18 of Pedro Pascal’s best social media moments, from sweet messages to full chaos

Pedro Pascal, the beloved actor behind The Mandalorian and The Last of Us, has had a social media journey just as charming and chaotic as his most iconic roles. Although he’s now ghosted X, with his handle (@PedroPascal1) having since been locked down by a fan, his legacy of weird, witty, and wonderful posts lives on.

Before leaving X, Pascal gained a reputation for his unfiltered replies and self-deprecating humor. The actor also regularly posted about his mental health struggles, including sharing positive messages of hope to those who needed them most.

After his departure, he leaned into Instagram, where he shares offbeat selfies, political messages, and teases for upcoming roles. He hasn't posted much beyond Mandalorian clips on his TikTok account, although one video from 2021 showcases his silly personality.
