Fans of Pedro Pascal found out how he likes his coffee through a viral video in 2023, but many think the number of shots he adds is borderline illegal.
Pascal’s coffee order came up again on Jimmy Kimmel Live, where he explained how his pick-me-up reached that level and how “violating” it felt for him that everyone knew about it.
Pedro Pascal Opens Up About His Viral Coffee Order: “I Cannot Begin To Tell You How Violating This Was!”
On the March 27 episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live, Pedro Pascal shared the story behind his Starbucks coffee order, which went viral after a fan uploaded their interaction on TikTok.
Introducing The Last of Us star as “one of the busiest and most talented actors of all,” Kimmel later brought up Pascal’s famous iced quad espresso order in a Venti cup with extra ice and an additional six shots of espresso, which was written on his cup.
“I cannot begin to tell you how violating this was! There’s so much context to why it became six shots of espresso,” Pascal said.
He continued, “It was always a quad, but then I feel like the cups got bigger, and, I don’t know, the shots got less strong. At some point, it became six.”
The 49-year-old Chilean also described it as a “private morning ritual” that he would have preferred to keep to himself.
“I don’t have more coffee for the rest of the day,” The Mandalorian actor added.
Kimmel quipped that what Pascal ordered in the photo was not coffee, before calling it a “methaccino” due to the amount of caffeine in one go.
The actor then joked about what he does after drinking his usual cup of coffee: “You sip it, you get really high, and you answer emails and stuff.”
Pedro Pascal Answers a Suggestive Question About His Reed Richards Role in Fantastic Four
During his Kimmel appearance, Pascal also promoted his projects that are being released this year. Among the projects he discussed was his role as Reed Richards, also known as Mr. Fantastic, in Fantastic Four: First Steps.
Kimmel asked if fans would see his character stretch in the movie’s next trailer, to which Pascal nervously responded that he didn’t know."You see all the saliva, like, evaporating in my throat? Now I'm nervous," Pascal admitted. He also revealed during the episode that he hadn’t been coached on what he was allowed to say about his upcoming movies or shows.
The host then asked a rather risqué question about Reed Richards, a superhero in the Marvel universe known for his ability to stretch every part of his body.
"I was wondering if all of Mr. Fantastic's body parts stretch, and I wonder if you know the answer to that question. And did you even ask that question?"The audience reacted with glee, but Pascal was initially speechless—until he simply answered, "Everything has to stretch."
Kimmel then surprised Pascal and the audience with a comic panel featuring Mr. Fantastic alongside Sue Storm, who Vanessa Kirby plays in the film. In the image, Storm talked about her husband's "wonderful set of abilities" gained from exposure to cosmic rays.
"Meaning he's an incredible conversationalist in bed," Pascal quickly quipped. This prompted Kimmel to reply, "I don't think that's what they mean at all, no."
Fantastic Four: First Steps will hit theaters on July 25, 2025.
