After a three-hour martini meetup in West Hollywood sparked dating rumors, Pascal clarified the status of their “very good” friendship: “If you’re really high at a party, make eye contact with Jen Aniston and she’ll calm your central nervous system.

Pascal also talked about their outing during an interview with " Access Hollywood ." When asked if he was trying to convince Aniston to star in "The Last of Us" at their dinner, he turned the question around, and said he might be interesting in playing a character on Aniston's Apple TV+ series "The Morning Show."
