The Mandalorian it is one of the greatest television sensations of our time. Its popularity is a complete revolution.
The show is on a streaming service, Disney +. It happens in Star Wars universe but proved that Star Wars it can be just as popular on the small screen as it is on the big one.
The show is loved by children and adults alike, but star Pedro Pascal finds he can’t impress his younger fans when he meets them in person. It turns out that they don’t recognize you without your mask.
Pedro Pascal is not as popular with children as he should be for his work on ‘The Mandalorian’

Pascal recently sat down with Josh Horowitz for a video chat as part of his “Stir Crazy” series at Comedy Central. They discussed Pascal’s work in Wonder Woman 1984, The last installment of the DC superhero. They also discussed The Mandalorian, and what it’s like for Pascal to interact with young fans.
According to Pascal, parents sometimes try to use it to impress their children. After all, knowing the star of a popular program should give them some influence. But it usually doesn’t work. When the children meet Pascal, they have no idea who he is. Pascal told Horowitz that when children see him, they are basically confused. “But then it’s like my face, and I don’t have the child with me, I’m not wearing a helmet and they look and are like, ‘Who is this guy?”
Pedro Pascal’s ‘mandalorian’ voice is recognizable, but cannot be used with children
A part of Pascal’s character, Din Djarin, is recognizable. Pascal’s voice has to be unique to work with the costume. Just as James Earl Jones had a very specific Darth Vader voice, Pascal has a special voice that he uses for Din.
Pascal theorizes that he could use his Din voice for children, to prove that he has the title role in The Mandalorian, but there is a problem. The voice is somewhat … sexual when it is not coming out of the mask of a space bounty hunter.
According to Pascal, “it is strangely like a bedroom voice. Totally inappropriate ”for children. Using this to impress them is totally out of the question, according to Pascal, and Horowitz agreed. This leaves Pascal in a difficult situation. He is basically unable to prove to his young fans that he is their favorite character on the TV show, or at least one of their favorites.
His co-star, The Child, or Baby Yoda, is probably the most popular part of the show. In fact, he often overcomes Pascal, something the actor may resent.
Is Pedro Pascal really the star of ‘The Mandalorian’ or is he baby Yoda?
It may be that young Pascal fans are not so impressed with him. Her co-actor, Baby Yoda, is much more popular, although technically a doll. Pascal likes to work with the little one, even if he steals Mando’s thunder.
According to Pascal, “Baby Yoda is not so ragged, a very quiet scene partner. It also makes me feel very tall – and necessary. “
In fact, Pascal has to thank Baby Yoda for accepting the job as Mando. He told People that seeing a photo of the little green man made him immediately accept the role. Baby Yoda may be fake, but for Pascal, he’s almost real. Pascal talks to him and plays with him like a child plays with his own toy. Pascal thanks the people who made the Child for dedicating so much time to work.
“It has everything to do with the amount of work these people put into it, because it is a very, very special creation, and it looks like that when you see it in person.”
