Pedro Pascal's Gay For Play


Let's all make a pact right now -- I'm going to try to post this news without going off the edge, and y'all try to do the same in the comments. Even though I know y'all commenters are maybe even more tired of Pedro Pascal's glass closet omnipresence than I am. And I am very. I'm just mostly of the mind that anything that gets a new Todd Haynes movie greenlit is worth praise, even if Pedro's coming at it with a lot of baggage. That said the project itself has baggage, since I'm sure y'all remember how Joaquin Phoenix bailed on this at the very verrrrry last minute last August and caused the entire thing's collapse. Baggage meets baggage. Anyway I've just now realized I haven't mentioned what I'm even talking about lol -- all y'all who aren't as online as me are probably like WTF, but I doubt many WT-Fuckers are visiting MNPP -- I have a knowledgable clientele, baby. But yes let's step back -- Pedro Pascal might be taking over the lead role in Todd Haynes' gay movie that got nuked when Joaquin dropped out of it. It has a title now that I don't recall seeing before -- De Noche -- and actor Danny Ramirez, who was set to be the co-lead in its earlier incarnation, will be coming back. Good for Danny -- I felt especially bad for him. I can't say I'm looking forward to another round of interviews from Mr. Pascal where he tells us all the details of the death of a close relative one second and then pivots to "I keep my private life private!" as soon as his sexuality's broached, but maybe he'll answer the fucking question for this. Time will tell! In summation, hey there Danny Ramirez...

Yawn. I get so tired of the over-exposure of stars like Pedro Pascal.

I'm with you. Pascal annoys the shit out of me.

I agree. I don't understand the adoration.

And yet - his "overexposure" is not the point of this article.
