The Mandalorian star Pedro Pascal completely misunderstands the word half the world uses to describe him and that only makes him more likeable

The Mandalorian star Pedro Pascal completely misunderstands the word half
Pedro Pascal is daddy. Thanks to his roles and public persona, the main actor from The Mandalorian and The Last of Us enjoys great popularity with many fans, who use the English term papa on the Internet with a wink. He himself understands it sympathetically only as an allusion to his father’s serial characters. But that’s only half the story. The Mandalorian star Pedro Pascal overlooks the kinky meaning of his nickname

He recently told the Hollywood Reporter:

The daddy thing seems to be role related. At times the Mandalorian acted very “daddy” towards Grogu, [die The Last of Us-Figur] Joel is very “daddy” to Ellie. Those are daddy roles.

Anyone who even begins to understand the different meanings of “dad” has dealt with on the Internet, will had to refrain from laughing at Pascal’s innocent explanation. Accordingly, some readers react on Twitter.

No Pedro! That’s not what daddy means on the internet!“, can be read there. On the one hand, daddy can actually only mean a fatherly figure there, but it often implies a sexual component. The target is men who are perceived as attractive and who are said to have an authoritarian or dominant charisma. With this in mind, the word is also used in the context of fetish practices that revolve around dominance and submission.

That Pascal pretends not to know this meaning, only makes him more likeable. As if all this stuff on Twitter and Instagram was new technical territory for him and he was just happy to be there. Just like a real daddy.
