<p id=”par-2_37″>According to <a href=”https://www.celebritynetworth.com/richest-celebrities/actors/pedro-pascal-net-worth/”>Celebrity Net Worth</a>, Pascal is currently worth $10 million. It was a fortune that, on the surface, he seemed to accumulate relatively quickly after his breakthrough <em>Game of Thrones </em>role. But his rise to success was a long and slow process. </p>
<p id=”par-3_37″>He’d already been a presence in Hollywood in the 90s, having done bit parts in small shows like <em>Buffy </em>and <em>The Good Wife</em>. There was a point where <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/pedro-pascal-and-sarah-paulson-are-longtime-friends-the-mandalorian-star-and-american-horror-story-star-lived-in-new-york-city-as-teens.html/”>Pascal’s good friend Sarah Paulson</a> even paid him personally to keep his acting aspirations alive.</p>
<p id=”par-4_38″>It’s unclear how much he earned during his brief time on <em>Game of Thrones</em>. But the HBO series led Pascal to scoring the lead role in Netflix’s <em>Narcos</em>. The show lasted for three seasons. According to <a href=”https://www.thethings.com/pedro-pascal-net-worth-movies-tv-show-salary/”>The Things</a>, it’s speculated that Pascal made $2 million from the series.</p>
<p id=”par-5_39″>He experienced more exposure and a huge salary bump thanks to <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/pedro-pascal-the-mandalorian-the-most-unique-project-ive-ever-worked-on.html/”>his time on <em>The Mandalorian</em></a>. It was reported that he made $400,000 – $500,000 per episode in the show’s third season. But his <em>Mandalorian </em>earnings were exceeded by his <em>Last of Us </em>salary, which saw Pascal walk away with $6 million.</p>

<p id=”par-6_24″>Pascal’s net worth should only grow from here. He has a second season of <em>The Last of Us </em>coming up, which may see a slight increase in his salary.</p>
<p id=”par-7_70″>He also might be the new face of Marvel after being cast in the <em>Fantastic Four</em>. It’s unclear what his base salary is for the feature, but the Marvel franchise is known to treat stars very well if they stick around. Robert Downey Jr., for instance, <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/robert-downey-jr-net-worth-and-pay-from-marvel.html/”>is worth $300 million</a>, and that’s in large part due to his run as Iron Man. If Marvel returns to its glory days, Pascal might end up topping the Forbes list in a few years’ time just like his predecessor.</p>

<p id=”par-8_25″><em>Buffy </em>might’ve been one of the most important projects that Pascal’s ever been a part of. He was only on the show for one episode, but that one episode had major implications going forward. </p>
<p id=”par-9_36″>Recently, he talked about his time on the show at the Sag Awards. There, Pascal saw his career reach another high after winning the award for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Drama Series.</p>
<p id=”par-10_20″>Speaking with <a href=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=__gMRluwonc”>Entertainment Tonight</a> at the ceremony, Pascal reflected on how <em>Buffy </em>might’ve paved the way for his journey to the Sag stage.</p>
<p id=”par-11_51″>“We’re talking about being able to see a doctor, getting sick, getting a surgery, paying my rent when I had less than $7 in my account, and a <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/pedro-pascal-actually-had-a-tiny-cameo-in-buffy-the-vampire-slayer-the-mandalorian-star-was-a-vampire-before-he-was-grogus-dad.html/”>residual from <em>Buffy the Vampire Slayer</em></a> showed up and saved the day, and literally is the reason I was able to stay in it and not give up,” he said.</p>

Pedro Pascal Was Forbidden From Playing ‘The Last of Us’ for His Role — But He Did It Anyway </a>

<p id=”par-12_61″>Pascal belongs to a long list of stars like Viola Davis and Samuel L. Jackson who found great success in their 40s. Although his dream paid off in a big way, there were times he came close to walking away from acting for good. In an interview with <a href=”https://www.esquire.com/entertainment/tv/a43518988/pedro-pascal-the-last-of-us-interview-2023/”>Esquire</a>, Pascal imagined he’d achieve his goals at a much earlier time. So when he didn’t, it was very discouraging.</p>
<p id=”par-13_67″>“My vision of it was that if I didn’t have some major exposure by the time I was twenty-nine years old, it was over, so I was constantly readjusting what it meant to commit my life to this profession, and giving up the idea of it looking like I thought it would when I was a kid. There were so many good reasons to let that delusion go,” he said.</p>
