The actor unexpectedly joined the host’s ongoing kissing gag after Julia Louis-Dreyfus also shared a similar moment during the show.
Pedro Pascal once again proved why he has become one of Hollywood’s most charismatic figures during his recent appearance on ‘The Late Show with Stephen Colbert’. What began as a standard promotional interview quickly turned into one of the week’s most talked-about television moments when the actor ended up kissing the host live on air.
The scene took place just minutes after Julia Louis-Dreyfus had also shared a similar moment with Stephen Colbert. During the actress’s interview, the programme aired a montage compiling several kisses Colbert has shared with celebrities over the years, including names such as Helen Mirren, Andrew Garfield and Sally Field.

After joking about the situation and referencing their respective spouses, Julia Louis-Dreyfus eventually kissed Colbert to cheers and laughter from the audience. However, the biggest surprise arrived later when Pedro Pascal entered the studio to promote his new film, ‘The Mandalorian & Grogu’.

As soon as he sat down opposite the presenter, the Chilean actor pointed towards his lips and raised his eyebrows provocatively, making it immediately clear that he expected the same treatment. The situation quickly escalated into another kiss that triggered an instant reaction both from the audience and across social media.
“I got jealous,” Pedro Pascal admitted afterwards, making it clear that the entire moment reflected the playful and relaxed energy that has become synonymous with his public appearances.
The episode was also marked by the approaching end of ‘The Late Show’, whose final episode will air on 21 May. Following the conclusion of the programme, Stephen Colbert is already preparing for a new professional chapter linked to the cinematic universe of The Lord of the Rings.
