Pedro Pascal and Colman Domingo interviewed each other for this year’s Vanity Fair Hollywood Issue, and the result was an entirely chaotic and wholesome interview that proves the two probably need to be cast as best friends or love interests in a movie, stat.
Domingo is nominated for Best Actor in a Leading Role Oscar for his performance in Rustin, and Pascal has been nominated for all major awards for his performances as Joel Miller in The Last of Us.
The interview includes Domingo asking Pascal about what movie of his he has watched the most. The answer makes Pascal wheeze laugh even as he’s giving it – an old episode of the show The Mentalist. “There’s a piano score in that scene that’s so good,” Pascal explains, to Domingo’s utter delight.
But that’s not even the most hilarious part of the interview, as later Pascal scoffs at one of Domingo’s answers and turns to the camera and says. “I’ve known him for a, really, really long time,” as if that explains why he doesn’t believe Domingo’s answer.
Then there are the outtakes, which are almost as funny as what made the interview. In one, Domingo pokes fun at Pascal for the way he says “horror” because he thought he said “whore.”
And in another outtake, Pascal introduces them as David Duchovny and Mark Wahlberg.
These two in a movie together, when?
Vanity Fair also had individual interviews with both Domingo and Pascal. Domingo, in one of the many revelations he made, shared that he got his start in the circus. Yes, the circus. “They taught me skills like aerial web, so I can climb up that long rope. Six-foot-tall-stilts. Clowning, gymnastics. I used to do all that.”
Pascal, meanwhile, remembered his Game of Thrones days and how he’s so grateful for them taking a chance on him as it’s gotten him to where he is now, saying, “Without Game of Thrones, I would not have had Narcos, The Mandalorian or The Last of Us.”
