Pedro Pascal stepped out for the Season 2 premiere of “The Last of Us” after his three-hour dinner with pal Jennifer Aniston.
The actor was all smiles on the red carpet at the TCL Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, Calif., on Monday night.
He wore a blue turtleneck sweater with a checkered blazer and black leather pants.
Pascal, 49, appeared in good spirits after he enjoyed a night out with Aniston, 56, at the Tower Bar in West Hollywood, Calif., on Saturday.
The “Gladiator II” star and the “Friends” alum were photographed chatting in the valet area alongside several others.
Aniston looked chic in a white T-shirt, leather vest, black pants and boots.
For Pascal’s part, he sported a leather jacket and jeans.
Their sighting sparked rumors that the two were romantically involved.
Fans even dug up a video of the duo holding hands on the red carpet at the 2024 Critics Choice Awards.
The clip showed Pascal talking to Aniston and her “Morning Show” co-star Reese Witherspoon about a potential role on their Apple TV+ series.
“Pitch it to me now,” he told the actresses. “I’m in. I’ll be waiting to hear from my agents. Draw it up. Send me a script. Or just pitch it to me in the room.”
But despite their three-hour dinner at Sunset Tower Hotel over the weekend, an insider told Page Six that Pascal and Aniston are not dating.
“There is no romance going on between Jennifer Aniston and Pedro Pascal,” the source exclusively told us. “They respect each other as artists, but it’s strictly platonic and they’re not dating.”
Pascal has mainly kept his love life out of the spotlight but has previously been romantically linked to Maria Dizzia, Lena Headey and Robin Tunney.
Aniston, meanwhile, was married to Brad Pitt from 2000 to 2005 and Justin Theroux from 2015 to 2018.
