Pedro Pascal has revealed the celebrities who gave him his earliest crushes – and it’s a mix of iconic male and female screen legends.
In an interview with Spanish magazine Fotogramas, where he was promoting his upcoming Marvel blockbuster The Fantastic Four: First Steps, Pascal and co-star Vanessa Kirby were asked to name their formative celebrity crushes.
Pascal began with Australian singer and actress Olivia Newton-John and Michelle Pfeiffer’s fierce turn as Catwoman in Batman Returns (1992), before admitting that he – like many of us – had a major thing for Harrison Ford in his two most legendary roles.
“Indiana Jones, all the way to The Last Crusade – all the way to now!” he said. “It’s sort of like a double Harrison Ford, isn’t it? Han Solo.”
When Kirby mentioned Marlon Brando, Pascal agreed, saying: “He appears on screen in A Streetcar Named Desire and you can’t even stay seated.”
Kirby went on to list a mix of men and women, including Leonardo DiCaprio as Jack in Titanic (1997), Geri Halliwell and Josh Hartnett – with Pascal chiming in to highlight Hartnett’s performances in Halloween: H20 (1998) and Pearl Harbor (2001).
