Pedro Pascal epically shut down reporter questioning why queer stories matter (spoiler) [View all]

LGBTQ+ ally and hot dad of the moment Pedro Pascal has no time for The Last of Us fans who question whether queer storylines belong on the show.

Pascal, who co-stars alongside Bella Ramsey as grizzled father-figure Joel, made it known that he has no time for anyone who questions whether these stories belong on The Last of Us. TMZ recently spotted the actor in West Hollywood and attempted to grill him about the show’s LGBTQ+ storylines.

(spoiler left out of this clip) “Can I ask: what do you say to the people who don’t want to see the LGBT character love stories?” the cameraperson asks in video posted to the gossip site on Sunday.

“They do!” Pascal replies as he walks away.

Despite his attempt not to engage with the online anti-LGBTQ+ chatter, the cameraperson persists when Pascal returns later, asking him why it’s so important for LGBTQ+ characters to be featured on TV shows.

“I think you’re asking the question because you know why it’s so important,” Pascal replies.
