Does Pedro Pascal have tattoos?
Pascal has a little bullseye doodle inked between his thumb and index finger on the back of his left hand. The actress disclosed the source of inspiration for the bullseye design in a 2017 cover article for Shortlist magazine. He had a propensity of sketching concentric circles on his fingers as a child.
He has a tattoo of his late mother’s signature, a “V” and a “P” on his wrist. Pascal attributes his acting success to his mother’s encouragement and belief in him. After her death, he changed his professional name from Balmaceda to Pascal. Pascal frequently posts birthday greetings on Instagram, expressing gratitude for her existence. At an early age, his mother pushed him to pursue acting by enrolling him in a local community theater. Pascal’s success can be ascribed to her constant support and faith in his ambitions.
A stunning floral pattern with a lost petal may be found behind Pascal’s left ear. It matches his older sister, Javiera Balmaceda’s, tattoo. The actor is extremely close to Balmaceda and frequently shares details about their life on social media. He told HBO Max that she is the first person he phones when he has good news. When Pascal was in final casting talks for “The Last of Us,” he called her to discuss a possible employment possibility on “The Last of Us.” Pascal’s legs are covered in four little elephants in solid black ink.
Two of them are on his right and left inner midthighs, while the other two are on his left thigh. The elephant tattoos on Pascal’s inner thighs are easy to notice, but they were seen on the red carpet at the 2023 Met Gala when the actor wore shorts. Though he hasn’t revealed the meaning behind the drawings, admirers have long theorized that the tattoos represent him and his three siblings, with whom he has a deep familial tie.
