Classic Movie Star
The Mandalorian’s creator Jon Favreau believes there’s a good reason why Pascal is a success. “He feels very much like a classic movie star in his charm and his delivery,” Favreau said (via Variety). “And he’s somebody who takes his craft very seriously.” There’s no denying his work rate because he came from nothing to claim everything.

Arguably, The Mandalorian was a gamble because Pascal barely shows his face. There aren’t many stars who would be happy to headline a series knowing that nobody gets to see them. Pascal was pragmatic about the situation and now he’s reaping the rewards. Let’s hope that he continues to live long and prosper.
