Pedro Pascal continues to reign as Hollywood’s favorite effortlessly cool zaddy—and he just gave fans another reason to adore him. The beloved actor made headlines again after his delightfully relatable quip at the premiere of From the World of John Wick: Ballerina quickly went viral.
A Red Carpet, A Viral Moment
At the buzzy Los Angeles premiere of Ballerina, the newest spin-off in the John Wick universe, Pascal stole the show without even trying. Influencer Sam Cornforth captured the viral clip as Pascal walked through the theater. When asked something off-camera, he responded—without missing a beat—“Hell no! I’m a lazy 50-year-old bougie b*tch…”

And just like that, the Internet had its next catchphrase.
It’s unclear exactly what sparked the comment, but one thing’s for sure: the delivery, the timing, the vibe? 10/10. The moment served as yet another reminder that Pedro Pascal is not only supremely talented but also hilariously self-aware—and deeply relatable.
An Unexpected Reunion on the Carpet
Pascal didn’t stop at the viral one-liner. Inside the premiere, he shared warm moments with Ballerina lead Ana de Armas and longtime franchise favorite Keanu Reeves. Cameras caught Pascal surprising de Armas and enthusiastically greeting Reeves, who seemed equally delighted by the encounter.
The actor’s laid-back look—a khaki jacket paired with his signature easy confidence—stood out among the sea of black ties, adding to his ever-growing list of “cool uncle” fashion moments.
What to Expect From Ballerina
Slated for release on June 6, 2025, From the World of John Wick: Ballerina follows the story of Eve Macarro (played by de Armas), a ballerina-turned-assassin on a mission of vengeance. The film marks the first female-led entry in the action-packed John Wick universe, and yes—Keanu Reeves is back as the iconic Mr. Wick.
While Pascal’s involvement with Ballerina remains unconfirmed, his premiere appearance certainly stirred excitement among fans of both him and the franchise. Could he be making a cameo? Only time will tell.
