Pedro Pascal has become so popular, he can't even get a martini dinner in peace!
The Mandalorian star has become a swoon-worthy heartthrob in the last few years, and his immense popularity has left his fanbase wanting to either date him or be him. But his fans are perfectly happy to speculate about his love life, too!
The latest presumed star of his affections is Friends and Murder Mystery actress Jennifer Aniston, who he was seen having a three-hour dinner with at a restaurant in L.A. last weekend.
The long "date," according to early tabloid news, "spark[ed] romance rumors" and left fans in a tizzy at the possibility. Given the popularity of both actors, and the fact that Pascal has been particularly careful and private about his friendships and love life, their mutual fans were eager for more breadcrumbs.

But Pascal was quick to shut down the rumors at the premiere of the second season of The Last of Us. When a reporter for Entertainment Tonight asked him about the dinner, he made light of it.
Pascal simply answered:
"Oh, Jennifer and I are very good friends, and I got to have dinner on Saturday. It was a fun martini dinner."
The reporter went on to ask how Pascal felt about the quick spread of the rumors, and he, in turn, complimented Aniston.
"That's her starlight. I'm just basking in it."
If there ever was a more romantic compliment, especially coming from the Mandalorian, we don't know what it could be.
Pedro Pascal is ready to come clean about his relationship with Jennifer Aniston... or is he?

Though Pedro Pascal made light of the rumors, that didn't stop fans from speculating.
Bringing this back because what if Jennifer Aniston wasn't joking? What if Pedro really sleeps with everyone in the Morning Show?!pic.twitter.com/mU3FjqkJ3f https://t.co/QEJ0K8tPoe

Pedro Pascal dating Jennifer Aniston is the plot of a rom-com waiting to happen

If they really are a couple, they’re instantly the most charismatic duo of the year

Since he's been so private in the past about his dating life, it's easy to imagine that he might be concealing early relationship developments with Aniston by brushing off rumors.
Then again, an inside connection pointed out that Aniston admired Pascal and was eager to work with him. She's said in the past of actors like Matthew Perry, David Schwimmer, and Adam Sandler, that she particularly enjoys playing off of actors who challenge her to be her sharpest and funniest, and Pascal would certainly fit the bill.
