Pedro Pascal, a name that has been mentioned a lot in recent years because of his frequent appearances on television and in theaters. Many people have asked what it would be like if he appeared everywhere, in every movie.

Pedro Pascal has become a household name, his charismatic presence dominating both the small and big screens in recent years. From his breakout role as Oberyn Martell in Game of Thrones to his iconic portrayal of Joel Miller in HBO’s The Last of Us, Pascal’s versatility and emotional depth have made him one of Hollywood’s most sought-after actors. His frequent appearances in major projects, from The Mandalorian to Gladiator II, have sparked a playful yet intriguing conversation among fans: what if Pedro Pascal truly appeared in every movie? The idea of him taking on roles like Kratos in a God of War adaptation, with Tom Holland as Atreus, has ignited imaginations, blending his proven track record with the limitless possibilities of fan-casting.

Pascal’s rise to stardom has been meteoric yet hard-earned. Born in Santiago, Chile, on April 2, 1975, he began his career with small roles in shows like Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Law & Order before landing his breakthrough as the fiery Oberyn Martell in 2014. His portrayal of Javier Peña in Narcos (2015–2017) further showcased his ability to embody complex, antiheroic characters. Pascal’s star power soared with The Mandalorian (2019–2023), where he played Din Djarin, a bounty hunter with a heart, cementing his reputation for portraying fatherly figures, a trait fans affectionately call “Daddy Pascal.” His role in The Last of Us (2023–present) as Joel Miller, a grizzled survivor protecting a young girl, earned critical acclaim, with the show’s second season slated for 2026. In 2024 alone, Pascal starred in Freaky Tales, Gladiator II as a Roman general, and Eddington, a comedy set during the COVID-19 pandemic, while also voicing a character in the animated The Wild Robot. His upcoming role as Reed Richards in The Fantastic Four: First Steps (2025) has already generated buzz, with fans on X praising his casting as “perfect” for the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

The notion of Pascal in every movie is a testament to his versatility. Posts on X, like one from @r0maniaxpascal on July 21, 2025, humorously noted his omnipresence across franchises: “Star Wars? Also. DC? Also. Marvel? Also. Fortnite? ALSO!” This ubiquity has led fans to dream up bold casting choices, such as Pascal as Kratos in a hypothetical God of War TV series or film. Kratos, the stoic, battle-hardened Spartan from the PlayStation franchise, requires a blend of physicality, gravitas, and emotional vulnerability—qualities Pascal has mastered. His ability to convey quiet intensity, as seen in The Equalizer 2 (2018) and Triple Frontier (2019), makes him a compelling fit for the God of War. Fans imagine him wielding the Leviathan Axe with the same commanding presence he brought to his role as a villain in Kingsman: The Golden Circle (2017).

Pairing Pascal with Tom Holland as Atreus, Kratos’ young son, adds another layer of intrigue. Holland, known for his youthful energy as Spider-Man, could capture Atreus’ curiosity and defiance, creating a dynamic father-son duo. While no official casting for a God of War adaptation has been confirmed, the idea has sparked debate. Some fans, as seen in a 2022 post on X by @GAMINGbible, expressed concern about miscasting, citing Holland’s youthful persona as a mismatch for Kratos. However, others argue his emotional range, evident in Uncharted (2022), complements Pascal’s gravitas. The chemistry between the two could mirror Pascal’s on-screen bond with young co-stars like Grogu in The Mandalorian or Ellie in The Last of Us.

Pascal’s ability to inhabit diverse roles fuels this fantasy. His comedic turn in The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent (2022) alongside Nicolas Cage showed his lighter side, while Wonder Woman 1984 (2020) highlighted his flair for villainy. His 2024 monologue in Omar Apollo’s album God Said No even showcased his voice-acting prowess. Yet, the idea of Pascal in every movie isn’t without skeptics. A July 2025 X post by @TheBrownestHat jokingly called him an “outlier” for appearing in countless projects, suggesting oversaturation. Still, his supporters, like @CarineK, praise his passion and work ethic, noting his long journey to stardom.

As Pascal prepares for Avengers: Doomsday (2026) and Avengers: Secret Wars (2027), his star continues to rise. Whether as Kratos, Reed Richards, or another iconic character, Pascal’s ability to blend intensity, warmth, and charisma ensures he’d make any role unforgettable. For now, fans can only dream of him dominating every screen, but his real-world performances already make that vision feel tantalizingly close.
