The Last of Us star Pedro Pascal is one of the most prolific actors in Hollywood at the moment, with the Chilean-American actor about to take on one of his biggest roles to date in the new Marvel movie Fantastic Four.

And even Liam Neeson couldn’t help himself, with the Naked Gun star making a cheeky dig about him at an early screening for his new movie.

Neeson, 73, is starring as Frank Drebin Jr in the 80s parody’s reboot, which is out in cinemas today, with r eviewers hailing it a “masterclass”. Speaking at the New York screening, a video of the star has done the rounds on social media.

Posted by entertainment reporter Jonathan Sim, the clips shows Neeson thanking his audience for going to see the movie. He jokes that the needs them to “please laugh out loud” at the funny moments. It comes after Taylor Swift sparks engagement rumours as fans spot Travis Kelce’s lock screen

Neeson goes on to quip: “Spoiler alert: there’s no zombies, no superheroes, and Pedro Pascal isn’t in this movie,” with fans laughing at his comment.

His joke highlights how Pascal’s career seems to be going from strength to strength, with the 50-year-old cast in numerous new productions following 20 years of working his way up in smaller roles on TV and on stage.

Those roles however have included the lead in Netflix series Narcos as well as Star Wars series The Mandalorian and HBO’s hit show The Last of Us. He has also featured in films such as Wonder Woman 1984, The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent and Gladiator II.

This year, alongside Fantastic Four he will also feature in modern western Eddington as well as romantic comedy Materialists opposite Dakota Johnson. With his recent success, Parade magazine estimates his net worth at around $10 million.

But despite his high profile, Pascal has managed to keep his private life largely under wraps. He made headlines back in March after he was spotted getting close to former Friends star Jennifer Aniston.

The pair were spotted together in Los Angeles at a dinner that “lasted three hours”, as reported by The Mirror. They then spent the night at the Tower Bar at the Sunset Hotel in West Hollywood.

Aniston and Pascal arrived separately after 8pm and left in separate ways three hours later, in photos seen by Daily Mail. Both opted for casual outfits for the evening and soon parted ways after having a conversation outside the parking valet area.

Aniston and Pascal’s dinner date comes amid speculation he might join her Apple TV series, The Morning Show. Despite the dating speculations, Pascal is thought to be single.

Meanwhile, Liam has been romantically linked to Pamela Anderson, although they too are keeping quiet about their relationship status. Neeson was married to British actress Natasha Richardson from 1994, until she tragically died in 2009 following a head injury.

The close bond between Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson has been the topic of conversation around the world as the pair continue to remain silent over whether or not they’re in a relationship. But it looks as though the writing was on the wall as far back as last year when the Taken star declared his love for the former Baywatch icon.

In an interview with People magazine, Liam, 73, candidly confessed to being “madly in love” with the mum of two.

At the time, he told the publication: “With Pamela, first off, I’m madly in love with her.” He added: “She’s just terrific to work with. I can’t compliment her enough, I’ll be honest with you. No huge ego. She just comes in to do the work. She’s funny and so easy to work with. She’s going to be terrific in the film.”
