Pedro Pascal’s Shocking Answer

by

This summer, Marvel Studios is bringing back the original superhero clan in “The Fantastic Four: First Steps”. Director Matt Shakman’s updated take on the retro-futuristic storyline has all the makings of a timeless classic, and it seems there might be even more exciting developments coming up soon. But could a conversation with Pedro Pascal, the rising star of upcoming Marvel movies, possibly avoid some Kevin Smith-esque playfulness?

I strongly disagree with that notion, and Pascal’s latest appearance on “Jimmy Kimmel Live” only reaffirmed such behavior. Sporting a t-shirt emblazoned with the phrase “Adult Content,” the star of “The Last of Us” was directly questioned by his host about one of the classic queries: can Mr. Fantastic elongate every part of himself.

Mr. Pascal promptly replied concisely to the late-night inquiry from the ABC captain, leaving no room for ambiguity.

Everything has to stretch.

First Steps, Pedro Pascal is portraying a character who’s quite mischievous. Coincidentally, it’s not just the length of this upcoming Fantastic Four’s reported runtime that seems to be stretching—it fits the theme.

Since it’s now quite late, it seems like an ideal moment for some fun, as long as we adhere to the guidelines set by Standards and Practices. However, if you’re watching this program through Hulu, there might never be a wrong time for enjoyment!

For those who prefer their entertainment earlier in the day or are fans of Jimmy Kimmel Live, Hulu offers a way to stream new episodes regularly! If you’re looking to get more bang for your buck, consider subscribing to the Disney Plus/Hulu bundle, which will also allow you to catch up on the Marvel Cinematic Universe before The Fantastic Four: First Steps hits theaters. Check out this deal now!

Experiencing those words on paper is one aspect, but listening to them directly from the source offers an entirely new perspective. Treat yourself and witness the action as it happens live, right here: (or “right before your eyes” if you prefer a slightly different phrasing)

Lesson for you young ones: If you wonder if the Marvel movies have missed some grown-up questions about your heroes, chances are the comics have tackled those subjects subtly. It’s amusing, but I was reminded of another comic enthusiast who raised that exact question before, after watching this clip on Jimmy Kimmel Live.

The goal here is to make the text more accessible and easier to read while preserving the original meaning. The changes made include simplifying some sentences, using everyday language, and adding a more personal touch by addressing the audience as “young ones” and using the phrase “amusing, but.

If you’re familiar with the tagline at the beginning, you’d instantly know where I’m heading. But if it’s not clear, here’s a fun clip from the movie “Mallrats,” featuring Jason Lee’s character Brodie Bruce asking someone who’s well-versed in the location the same question:

As a movie enthusiast, let me pose an intriguing speculation: Imagine if the rumors are true and a well-known comedian has indeed lent his voice to H.E.R.B.I.E., and that comedian happens to be none other than Jason Lee. The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) has shown an affinity for referencing “Mallrats” in the past, as evident by Stan Lee reading a script during a scene in “Captain Marvel”. Could this be the perfect way to complete the loop?

In the upcoming movie “The Fantastic Four: First Steps,” set to release on July 25th, I will either be vindicated or disproven in my predictions. If Jimmy Kimmel’s clue is more than just a tease, we might catch Pedro Pascal flexing his gamma-enhanced physique on April 4th instead. Now wouldn’t that be something exciting?
