Let me be honest, sometimes I open Netflix or Prime, spend half an hour scrolling, and still end up rewatching an old sitcom. But then there are those magical nights when I know exactly what I’m looking for something starring Pedro Pascal.
The man’s like cinematic caffeine; whether he’s wearing a helmet in a galaxy far, far away or trading banter with Nicolas Cage, he just wakes you up.
We first noticed him as Oberyn Martell in Game of Thrones, sitting there like he owned the whole of Westeros and could duel Death itself. Since then? Forget it. If Pedro’s in it, I’m watching it .And in current era , there’s a surprising range of his movies and shows across NEFLIX, PRIME VIDEO, DISNEY+, HBO MAX, and more.
Here’s my personal binge list—same order as the original rundown but with my own two cents, trivia nuggets, and streaming pointers.

Pedro Pascal’s Mini Biography

Pedro Pascal, born José Pedro Balmaceda Pascal in Santiago, Chile had anything but a straight road to Hollywood stardom.
His family fled Chile for political asylum, hopping from Denmark to the U.S. before he even learned to walk.
Before the helmet, the sword, and the prestige TV glow, he was grinding in theatre… and, fun fact, working as an exotic dancer.
His breakthrough? Oberyn Martell in Game of Thrones Season 4, then DEA agent Javier Peña in Narcos.
Now, he’s Joel in The Last of Us, a Mandalorian in the Star Wars galaxy, and an occasional Marvel player. Basically, if there’s a genre, he’s probably owned it at least once.
Below is the list of 10 Must-Watch Pedro Pascal Movies & TV Shows On Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and other OTT Platforms 2025
Fantastic Four
Type | Movie |
Genre | Action, Sci-Fi, Adventure |
Director | Matt Shakman |
IMDb Rating | 7.3 / 10 |
Star Cast | Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Ralph Ineson, Julia Garner |
Maturity Rating | PG-13 (Some violence and peril) |
Runtime | 1 hour 55 minutes |
Mood | Ambitious, Awe-inspiring, Fresh, Nostalgic |
Year | 2025 |

Retro-futuristic 1960s vibes? Check. Galactus and the Silver Surfer? Double check.
This MCU reboot isn’t just another superhero crowd-pleaser. it’s Marvel dusting off one of its oldest comic families and making them feel fresh. I loved how it balanced cosmic danger with moments that actually made me care about the characters. Pedro fits right into this world, and it’s the kind of blockbuster you want to see on the biggest screen possible… then rewatch at home for all the easter eggs you missed.
Rumor has it Pedro filmed some scenes wearing practical space suits weighing over 25 pounds.
The Mandalorian
Type | TV-Series |
Genre | Action-adventure, Space Western, Sci-Fi |
Creator | Jon Favreau |
IMDb Rating | 8.6 / 10 |
Star Cast | Pedro Pascal, Katee Sackhoff, Carl Weathers, Giancarlo Esposito |
Maturity Rating | TV-14 |
Runtime | 30–50 minutes per episode |
Mood | Gritty, Adventurous, Heartfelt |
Year | 2019-2023 |

You can’t see Pedro’s face for 90% of the show, but somehow, he still gives one of the most human performances on TV. As Din Djarin, the galaxy’s most reluctant babysitter, he mixes badass bounty hunting with “dad energy” so well it hurts.
I still remember watching Chapter 1 at 2 a.m. on release night and texting three friends: “You need to see this space cowboy.”
Plus, Grogu. Enough said.
Pedro wasn’t always in the armor , stunt doubles Brendan Wayne and Lateef Crowder handled some of the physical work while Pedro dubbed the dialogue later.
Narcos
Type | TV-Series |
Genre | Crime, Drama, Action |
IMDb Rating | 8.7 / 10 |
Creators | Chris Brancato, Carlo Bernard, Doug Miro |
Star Cast | Wagner Moura, Pedro Pascal, Boyd Holbrook |
Maturity Rating | TV-MA (Strong and bloody violent content, drug use, nudity, and language) |
Runtime | 45-50 minutes per episode |
Mood | Intense, Historical, Gritty |
Year | 2015-2017 |

This one is gritty, tense, and will occasionally make you Google “Did that really happen?” Spoiler: a lot of it did.Pascal as DEA agent Javier Peña has this weary determination that grounds the chaos of the Colombian drug war.
I binged the first two seasons in a single rainy weekend, my snack stash didn’t survive. If you want Pascal in a grounded, morally complex role, this is your stop.
Pascal prepared for the role by meeting real DEA agents who worked in Colombia during the Escobar years.
The Last of Us
Type | TV-Series |
Genre | Post-apocalyptic drama, Thriller, Action |
Creators | Craig Mazin, Neil Druckmann |
IMDb Rating | 8.5 / 10 |
Star Cast | Pedro Pascal, Bella Ramsey, Gabriel Luna |
Maturity Rating | TV-MA (Strong and bloody violent content, drug use, grisly images, and some language) |
Runtime | 45–80 minutes per episode |
Mood | Intense, Emotional, Suspenseful, Gut-Wrenching |
Year | 2023-Present |

Even if you’ve never picked up a PlayStation controller, The Last of Us hits like a freight train. Pascal’s Joel is broken but still clinging to hope, and his dynamic with Bella Ramsey’s Ellie feels so raw that I actually paused an episode just to breathe.
Yes, there are infected monsters, but the real gut-punches come from the quiet conversations and impossible choices.
Pedro admits he didn’t finish playing the video game because it was too scary—he watched his nephew play instead.
Game of Thrones S4
Type | TV-Series |
Genre | Fantasy, Drama, Action |
Creators | David Benioff, D.B. Weiss |
IMDb Rating | 9.5 / 10 |
Star Cast | Peter Dinklage, Lena Headey, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Kit Harington, Emilia Clarke, Sophie Turner, Maisie Williams, Pedro Pascal |
Maturity Rating | TV-MA (Strong and bloody violent content, drug use, nudity, and language) |
Runtime | 50–65 minutes per episode |
Mood | Epic, Shocking, Politically charged |
Year | 2014 |

Oberyn Martell doesn’t just enter the scene—he storms into it, charming and dangerous all at once. Pascal plays him with such swagger that you almost forget Westeros is basically a death trap.
And then there’s “that” fight. I’ll just say: if you know, you know. If you don’t—brace yourself.
Pedro got the Game of Thrones audition through a friend—Lena Headey—who later became a close buddy.
The Book of Boba Fett
Type | TV Mini-Series |
Genre | Space Western, Sci-Fi, Action-adventure |
Creators | Jon Favreau, Dave Filoni |
IMDb Rating | 7.1 / 10 |
Star Cast | Temuera Morrison, Ming-Na Wen, Pedro Pascal |
Maturity Rating | TV-14 (Action violence, peril, and thematic elements) |
Runtime | 38–61 minutes per episode |
Mood | Gritty, Adventurous, Nostalgic |
Year | 2021-2022 |

Let’s be real: part of the fun here is the Mandalorian crossover episodes. But even aside from that, The Book of Boba Fett dives deep into Star Wars’ criminal underbelly. Pedro’s return as Din is pure fan service in the best way.
Plus, if you love the dusty, western-meets-sci-fi tone of Mandalorian, you’ll find more of it here—just with more crime boss politics.
The show’s flashback scenes used practical desert sets in California mixed with digital environments created in “The Volume.”
The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent
Type | Movie |
Genre | Action, Comedy, Crime |
Director | Tom Gormican |
IMDb Rating | 7 / 10 |
Star Cast | Nicolas Cage, Pedro Pascal, Sharon Horgan, Tiffany Haddish |
Maturity Rating | R (Language throughout, some sexual references, drug use, and violence) |
Runtime | 1 hour 47 minutes |
Mood | Witty, Meta, Zany |
Year | 2022 |

This is the movie that proved Pascal can do comedy just as well as drama.
Watching him bounce off Nicolas Cage’s glorious self-parody is like watching two kids who snuck onto a movie set and decided to have the time of their lives. Their “bromance” sequences are worth the price of admission alone.
The famous cliff jump scene? Pascal was genuinely nervous—they used a stunt double, but he still hung around the edge to keep the energy real.
Gladiator 2
Type | Movie |
Genre | Action, Adventure, Drama |
Director | Ridley Scott |
IMDb Rating | 6.5 / 10 |
Star Cast | Paul Mescal, Pedro Pascal, Denzel Washington, Connie Nielsen |
Maturity Rating | R (Strong bloody violence, some language, and brief nudity) |
Runtime | 2 hours 28 minutes |
Mood | Epic, Intense, Historical |
Year | 2024 |

Two decades after Ridley Scott’s original, we’re back in the Roman arena. Pascal joins a stacked cast (Denzel Washington!) in a story about vengeance, honor, and, well… fighting to the death for entertainment.
The scale is massive, the costumes are jaw-dropping, and the fight choreography makes you want to yell “Are you not entertained?” at your own TV.
Pedro reportedly trained with real sword-fighting experts for months before filming.
Triple Frontier
Type | Movie |
Genre | Action, Adventure, Crime |
Director | J.C. Chandor |
IMDb Rating | 6.5 / 10 |
Star Cast | Ben Affleck, Oscar Isaac, Charlie Hunnam, Garrett Hedlund, Pedro Pascal |
Maturity Rating | R (Violence and language throughout) |
Runtime | 2 hours 5 minutes |
Mood | Gritty, Intense, Suspenseful |
Year | 2019 |

An underrated Netflix gem. Former soldiers reunite for one last big score, and Pedro plays the team’s pilot—a guy you’d trust with your life… until the plan starts falling apart.
What starts as a slick heist morphs into a survival story with some stunning South American landscapes.
Also, the cast chemistry? Chef’s kiss.
Filming in Colombia and Hawaii meant the actors often dealt with extreme heat and rain during long action sequences.
Prospect
Type | Movie |
Genre | Sci-Fi, Western, Thriller |
Directors | Zeek Earl, Christopher Caldwell |
IMDb Rating | 6.3 / 10 |
Star Cast | Sophie Thatcher, Pedro Pascal, Jay Duplass |
Maturity Rating | R (For some violence/bloody images) |
Runtime | 1 hour 38 minutes |
Mood | Gritty, Atmospheric, Tense |
Year | 2018 |

Low-budget sci-fi done right. Imagine a space western where the “gold” is dangerous alien minerals, and survival depends on quick thinking and shaky alliances.
Pascal’s Ezra is both a threat and a reluctant ally, and his back-and-forth with Sophie Thatcher’s character kept me hooked.
The world-building feels so tangible you can almost taste the alien dust.
The film’s alien forest was actually shot in Washington state, using mist machines to give it an otherworldly vibe.
Freaky Tales
Type | Movie |
Genre | Action, Comedy, Crime |
Directors | Anna Boden, Ryan Fleck |
IMDb Rating | 6.3 / 10 |
Star Cast | Pedro Pascal, Ben Mendelsohn, Jay Ellis, Normani |
Maturity Rating | R (Strong bloody violence, language throughout including slurs, sexual content and drug use) |
Runtime | 1 hour 47 minutes |
Mood | Gritty, Retro, Vibrant |
Year | 2025 |

It’s wild. It’s loud. It’s very, very 1987.
This Oakland-set anthology throws you into four interlinked stories full of punk energy, street-level crime, and Pedro as a debt collector you definitely don’t want knocking on your door.
It’s messy in a fun way, like a mixtape you can’t stop replaying.
Directors Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck styled each segment after a different 80s genre, from VHS action flicks to neon-soaked music videos.
My Take
If I had to pick just one? I’d go with Fantastic Four for sheer emotional impact, but The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent is the one I rewatch when I need a pick-me-up.
