Pedro Pascal is currently one of Hollwood’s most sought-after actors and should be known to many as a star from the Star Wars series The Mandalorian on Disney+ * and The Last of Us on WOW *. However, the actor had his breakthrough nine years ago as a self-confident fighter Oberyn Martell in Game of Thrones — in a role that has garnered him some borderline fan encounters.

Pedro Pascal as Oberyn Martell in Game of Thrones
In the series Game of Thrones, which is not squeamish about bloodshed, Pedro Pascal dies one of the most terrible deaths: In order to prove Tyrion’s (Peter Dinklage) innocence, Oberyn Martell announces himself as his champion and duels against the “mountain” Gregor Clegane.
Although the arrogant, agile fighter from Dorne initially appears to have the edge over his opponent, the King’s Champion eventually brings him down, squeezing his eyes out with his thumbs and then crushing his entire head.

Game of Thrones: Pedro Pascal’s Oberyn vs. Berg
This memorable death scene wanted Game of Thrones fanswho recognized Pedro Pascal on the street, again and again adjust. The Star Wars star recently revealed to the Hollywood Reporter:

After that, Pedro Pascal understandably preferred to reject such fan photos. With his role in The Mandalorian, something similar could not happen to him again, thanks to Helm and the recently revealed voice-only role. And anyway, since The Last of Us series about a virus wiping out the world, we know that touching other people should be considered. Even if their name is Pedro Pascal.
