The Last Of Us star, Bella Ramsey, recently opened up about their feelings on co-star Pedro Pascal's internet nickname as "Daddy."
Pedro Pascal has quickly become a beloved figure in Hollywood, charming audiences with his amazing performances and warm persona. Whether he's wearing a mask as The Mandalorian in Star Wars or delivering an emotional portrayal as Joel Miller in HBO's adaptation, this guy's got range. Not only that, he's taken on a leading role in Marvel's upcoming flick, *The Fantastic Four: First Steps.*
Fans love him not just because he can act up a storm but also because he's a vocal ally in supporting LGBTQ+ rights. So what about this "daddy" thing? It's a term fans use affectionately, meaning more like a charming, authoritative figure, not its usual paternal meaning.
Sure, loads find Pascal's "daddy" persona endearing, but Bella Ramsey, who stars as Ellie Williams alongside him, admits she feels a bit uneasy about it.
Talking with *Vanity Fair,* Ramsey confessed, "I felt worried about him. I want him shielded from becoming just a joke as 'the internet's daddy.' He's so much more than that.”
Pascal, meanwhile, seems totally cool with it. He's joked about it, saying he's more like fans' "cool, slutty daddy." Still, Ramsey thinks all this talk has "gone too far," though not too many seem bothered by it.
Pedro's set his sights on portraying Reed Richards—Mister Fantastic—in Marvel's upcoming film, *The Fantastic Four: First Steps.* Interestingly, he'll be stepping in as an actual father figure in this new role. With Vanessa Kirby's Sue Storm, they're battling both parenthood and big bad Galactus with their super-kid, Franklin.
Mark your calendars—It's hitting theaters on July 25, 2025, and there are high hopes that Pascal will dazzle us once again.
The whole "daddy" label sparks quite a discussion about public personas intersecting with internet culture. While Pascal's fan love shines through, Ramsey's protective stance highlights how these labels can simplify a complex celebrity identity.
As these talks continue, let's not forget how those involved actually feel. Ramsey's angle reminds us that, although playful, these labels can pigeonhole a person, limiting how we perceive them.
