Pedro Pascal has declared that winning the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) Award was “a mistake.”
The 48-year-old star surprisingly won the Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Drama Series award for his work in The Last of Us at an awards ceremony on Saturday (February 24), but he admitted that he Fellow nominees Kieran Culkin and Matthew Macfadyen of “Succession” were able to get “intoxicated” even without getting on stage at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles, which they admitted they thought would happen. I was hoping Brian Cox or The Morning Show’s Billy Crudup would win. .
He emotionally said, “This is wrong for so many reasons.I’m a little drunk, so I thought I could get drunk and thank HBO.Well, Louise, I know I’m making a fool of myself, but thank you very much.” ”!
“This is an incredible honor because I’ve been with the union since 1999. Dear candidates, I can’t remember any of your names right now…”
Citing the names of a number of HBO executives, he quipped, “I have no skills or interest. At least give me a job.
“My family may be watching, but I don’t know.
“I’m leaving the house because I’m about to have a panic attack.”
Elizabeth Debicki was similarly shocked later that night when she won the award for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Drama Series for “The Crown.”
She said, “I really didn’t expect this to happen. Everyone says this, but I really don’t. I really don’t know what to say. I’m going to try my best.”
She went on to talk about other nominees Jennifer Aniston (The Morning Show), Bella Ramsey (The Last of Us), Keri Russell (The Diplomat) and Sarah. Kudos to Snook (Succession).
She said: “I used to look at the women in my category in complete awe and I learned how to do my job by watching you, so to be nominated next to you was incredible.” I can’t help it.
“I really, really love my job. About a week ago, I was lying in bed with the flu. I had memories of my childhood and was thinking about happy memories. The first time I acted in a play. I remember, I think I was 10 years old, and I think someone’s parents wrote it, and it was about kids getting along.
“On the last day of school, someone gave me the part. It was a 15-minute walk home. I felt like I was floating in the air. I was so happy. Someone gave me the part. I feel that way every time I give a job to someone.”
“Thank you for this. It means so much to me. To my beautiful ‘Crown’ family, it has been a pleasure to work with you and this work is such a gift.”
“Today is my mom’s birthday, happy birthday mom!”
