The latest tweets from @PedroPascal1. The second season of Star Wars: The Mandalorian got a big boost in its character roster, adding a few beloved characters from older Star Wars films and the popular animated titles.
© Provided by The Mary Sue Pedro pascal and pascal the otterOtters are great. I often like to cry over the knowledge that they hold hands and float together while they sleep so they don’t get separated. So, to log on to Twitter and see an Otter named Pascal trying to get the attention of Pedro Pascal? I truly am surprised I didn’t combust.
Brookfield Zoo in Illinois shared a picture of their newest river otter. A sweet baby named Pascal joined their family, and the zoo tweeted at The Mandalorian star Pedro Pascal because who doesn’t want Pedro Pascal and a river otter named Pascal to be friends?

To make matters worse for me, they posted a video of Pascal just living his best life.
Just keep swimming 🏊, Pascal! He is developing important skills like swimming under the close eye of his animal care team. Pascal 🦦 is already becoming more confident!

So then, fans of Pedro Pascal took this as their time to compare the actor to pictures of otters, continuing to come after my heart and make me want to cry.
LIKE, COME ON.
Double Pascal! @PedroPascal1https://t.co/KN6phJVSXA

According to the press release about Pascal the Otter, the program has been working to help the river otter population in Illinois since the early 90s and now the species is common throughout the state!
” The Illinois population of North American river otters—fewer than 100 individuals in the late 1980s—was once threatened due to over harvesting and habitat loss. However, a successful recovery program initiated in the early 1990s by the Illinois Department of Natural Resources helped increase the number of otters in the state. The program included relocating nearly 350 otters from Louisiana to central and southeastern Illinois. The state also engaged in conserving wetlands and wooded areas along streams and rivers, which is otter habitat. Today, the species is common throughout Illinois thanks to these efforts as well as expanding otter populations in neighboring states.”
The reason for Pascal’s name is actually because of the sweet otter who gives you life advice in the popular game Animal Crossing. But the fact that the Twitter account for the Brookfield Zoo wants Pedro Pascal and Pascal to be friends? Delightful. I hope that Pedro Pascal can get life advice from this 2-month old pup.
You can donate to the Chicago Zoological Society here to help them on their journey to protect and care for these animals.
I would like to personally thank the Brookfield Zoo for delighting me with content of Pedro Pascal and otters. It felt specific to me and my interests, and I will take any and all content of Pascal the Otter just going about his day.

The post Pascal the Otter and Pedro Pascal Need to Be Friends first appeared on The Mary Sue.Monday’s Community table read was miraculously able to get the whole band back together — well, the whole band minus Chevy Chase, as they did an episode after his character, Pierce Hawthorne, had both left Greendale and bit the dust. But the reunion, which was done in part for charity, wasn’t stolen by one of the central cast. It was stolen by guest star Pedro Pascal.
The Mandalorian star was a sub-hitter, filling in for Walton Goggin, who appeared in the chosen episode, Season 5’s “Cooperative Polygraphy.” Goggin played Pierce’s executor, who swings by Greendale to fill the gang in on the details of his will. Among the gifts was a container of Pierce’s “hyper-viral sperm,” intended for Gillian Jacobs’ Britta.
On the show Goggins was able to keep a straight face while revealing this absurd detail. Pascal, not so much. But everyone loves performers who break up during bizarre comedy one-liners, especially when the performer is known in part for playing a bounty hunter whose face is permanently hidden under a helmet.

Pascal’s epic flub of the line proved a delight on Twitter, but that wasn’t all people loved. They were also smitten with his many joyous faces as he crashed the party.

His line deliveries — i.e., the ones he was able to get through without losing it — were also very much enjoyed.

Show creator Dan Harmon, also in attendance, was also pumped that Pascal joined the group, and managed to slip in a reference to one of his own shows.
