Marvel’s Fantastic Four Movie Gets Filming Update Amid Pedro Pascal Issues [Report]
While Pedro Pascal spends much of 2024 bringing life to a stretchy superhero and a melancholy survivor of an apocalypse, he has two more projects on his plate, one officially announced and one potential.
The confirmed project is “The Mandalorian and Grogu,” which the official Star Wars website reports will go into production sometime in 2024. The film, directed by Jon Favreau, does not have a cast nailed down yet, but presumably Pascal will appear somewhere within the picture as Din Djarin. The actor has played the titular Mandalorian since the Disney+ series began streaming in 2019 and has popped up in multiple franchises related to the series.
The potential project, titled “Eddington,” is “Midsommar” director Ari Aster’s story of a couple who meet with peril when they pull off the road to get help in a seemingly friendly small town. Pascal had reportedly been offered a role in the project before the SAG-AFTRA strike put it on hold, but there’s no word as to whether or not he’s accepted the part. Any way you slice it, it looks like Pascal will be quite the busy man over the next couple of years.
