"Pedro Pascal says a residual check for ‘BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER’ saved him from going homeless when he only had $7 in his bank account.
“It literally is the reason I was able to stay in acting and not give up.”"
While being interviewed by ET post-SAG win he mentioned:
“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 residual from ‘Buffy the Vampire Slayer’ showed up and saved the day, and literally is the reason I was able to stay in it and not give up,” Pascal said.
-He had been on the season 4 premiere episode back in 1999
-His past financial struggles had been discussed before with Sarah Paulson mentioning that she'd sometimes give him money just for food "“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".
