Perhaps Pedro Pascal is all partied out!
We’re told that the actor — who set off whispers by having a lingering dinner with Jennifer Aniston — irritated colleagues by skipping a promotional event for his show.

Pascal attended the premiere for the second season of HBO’s “The Last of Us” at the Chinese Theatre in Hollywood on Monday, but skipped the party at The Hollywood Roosevelt just across the street.
His handlers apparently gave the classic excuse that he “had to be on set in the morning.” But a source told Page Six that wasn’t the case.
Pascal seems to have arrived to the premiere ready to leave.
“He told [organizers] that he wasn’t feeling well and he wanted to leave after the introduction [to the movie],” a spy told Page Six.

That didn’t sit well with HBO organizers working the event, we hear. In fact, they immediately went into gossip mode, whispering about the three-hour dinner he had with Jennifer Aniston on Saturday.
“[The attitude] was like he could go out with [Aniston], but not come to our party?,” the source said.
“He was expected to show up. He could stay out there all night, and yet not come to his own party,” they added.

To be fair, Pascal has been on an intense press run promoting the show, including attending a press conference the morning of the premiere, press junkets, and walking the red carpet. He even cleared up “dating” buzz about him and Aniston in an interview with “Entertainment Tonight” on the carpet.

“Jennifer and I are very good friends,” he told the entertainment news show. He descirbed their platonic date as a “fun martini dinner.”
The “Game of Thrones” star, 49, then smiled and said he’s just basking in Aniston’s, 56, starlight.

As for season 2 of his HBO show, he told “Extra” at the premiere, “I’m so excited for everyone to see it.” “It’s been so long. We’ve all waited so long, and we waited a long time to get back together and shoot the second season, and everyone has waited so long for it to be released, so I’m just so happy that we get to share it with the world. Everyone cares so deeply about this thing.”
Season 2 of “The Last of Us” premieres April 13 on HBO and Max.
