Everyone is thanking Pedro Pascal! After Joaquin Phoenix left a gay romance film directed by Todd Haynes, the project was in trouble. The film, a noir called De Noche, seemed unlikely to be made. However, rumors started last summer that Pascal might join the cast and save the production. It was officially announced on February 4th that Pascal will take over the lead role, and filming will begin next month. De Noche, co-written by Haynes and Jon Raymond, is set in 1930s Los Angeles and tells the story of an affair between a police officer (Pascal) and a schoolteacher (Danny Ramirez) against a backdrop of widespread corruption.
Pascal has been incredibly busy lately, appearing in three films – Materialists, The Fantastic Four: First Steps, and Eddington (with his former co-star, Phoenix) – as well as the hit series The Last of Us. He has even more projects coming out later this year, including The Mandalorian and Grogu and Avengers: Doomsday. Some might worry he’s appearing in too many things, but starring in large, successful films often gives actors the financial freedom to pursue smaller, passion projects without damaging their careers. So, we can thank the Marvel and Star Wars universes for helping make this new film by Haynes possible – who knew Grogu would play such a key role?
