Sarah Paulson Supported Pedro Pascal in Their Early Acting Days
Sarah Paulson on Pedro Pascal: "I’m ready for him to take the reins from the guys from romantic comedies past, like Bruce Willis and Mel Gibson...He can be all that. Let’s remake ‘Die Hard’ with Pedro. Remake all the ‘Lethal Weapon’ movies with Pedro." https://t.co/8MjtQbWYrA

* Pedro Pascal and Sarah Paulson are two of Hollywood’s most in-demand actors, often pictured at red carpet events together, but that hasn’t always been the case during their three decades-long friendship. As young actors struggling to navigate the industry, Paulson would help her friend make ends meet.
* The pair first met when Pascal was studying at the NYU Tisch School of the Arts in 1993 and befriended a group of recent LaGuardia High graduates, a group that included Paulson.
* “We would go to see movies all the time in those years, and we would get so lost in them. You can fill in the blanks about the why of that however you like, but I think there were things we wanted to escape mentally, emotionally, spiritually.”
* “There were times when I would give him my per diem from a job I was working on so that he could have money to feed himself" Sarah said.
* Paulson even featured in Pascal’s SNL debut two months ago, appearing in a sketch that poked fun at their internet personas of “Mommy” and “Daddy.”
