Imagine signing on to a title role in Disney’s “Star Wars” universe only to discover that your face will appear on screen just a handful of times in the first two seasons. This was not an issue for Pascal, who donned “The Mandalorian’s” Beskar armor in 2019 alongside the colloquially dubbed Baby Yoda, making the series a breakout success and major awards contender for Disney+ that earned seven Emmys in 2020 and a whopping 24 noms in 2021. The Chilean-born actor with a low-key gravitas and charm also appeared in “Wonder Woman 1984” and “We Can Be Heroes” in 2020, and is set to star in HBO’s upcoming apocalyptic video game adaptation “The Last of Us,” as well as Judd Apatow’s “The Bubble,” a comedy taking place mid-pandemic that’s set for Netflix.
