Fans React to Pedro Pascal Touching Willem Dafoe's Wife in 2024 Clip
Fans react to Pedro Pascal touching Willem Dafoe's wife clip resurfacing
Pedro Pascal sparked mixed reactions online after a video clip resurfaced showing him touching Willem Dafoe's wife, Giada Colagrande, during Dafoe's Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony in January 2024.
The footage shows Pascal placing his hand on Colagrande's chin and stroking it while standing directly in front of Dafoe for a few seconds. In the cut-out clip of the video, some viewers noted that Dafoe's expression might have appeared to change after Pascal's interaction with Colagrande.
Some fans have commented that they believe Pascal is facing unfair scrutiny, as the cut-out clip does not provide any context for Pascal's interaction with Colagrande. Netizens also claim that although several pictures exist of Pascal hugging Dafoe seconds later, these images haven't circulated as widely as the controversial moment.
One commenter posted on X (formerly Twitter) that some social media users are unable to 'fathom platonic intimacy' between a male and a female. Another wrote, 'Clips shared with no back story or out of context become viral and can change public perception of someone and destroy people's lives.'
Online discussions about Pascal's physical interaction with colleagues started after he appeared at the San Diego Comic-Con with Fantastic Four star Vanessa Kirby. In a moment of 'anxiety,' Pascal reached out for Kirby's hand.
In response, Kirby took his hand and squeezed it assuringly. While the tender moment showed the pair's close friendship, it also received criticism online. Later, Kirby addressed the incident in a Vanity Fair interview.
She explained, 'What happened is we were both incredibly nervous going out in front of thousands of people who love this comic.' She added, 'He wanted me to know that we were in this together, and I found it a lovely gesture and was very glad to squeeze his hand back.'

Epoch Watchlist: Recommended Viewing for Aug. 1–7
This week, we feature a sweet family comedy about a bear and his adoptive family, and a World War II drama set in Burma's steamy jungles. New Release 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps' Reed Richards (Pedro Pascal), Sue Storm (Vanessa Kirby), Johnny Storm (Joseph Quinn), and Ben Grimm (Ebon Moss-Bachrach) face trouble when Earth is threatened by Galactus (Ralph Ineson) and his herald, the Silver Surfer (Julia Garner). The Fantastic Four must rely on more than their powers. The visuals pop but the heart is missing. Sue and Ben get real moments, but most of the others come off flat. The gender swap for Silver Surfer (from the original cartoon) feels forced and adds nothing. The film is a flashy start to a series, but I'm curious to see if future installments are better.

Whoa, baby! The real story behind the adorable star of 'Fantastic Four'
Spoiler alert! We're discussing important plot points and the ending of 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps' (in theaters now), so beware if you haven't seen it yet. 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps' brings a superpowered quartet into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but there's an important fifth member of that group: an adorable hero baby. Directed by Matt Shakman, the newest Marvel movie is a retrofuturistic sci-fi adventure in which the Fantastic Four deal with the arrival of a world-devouring giant called Galactus (Ralph Ineson). He'll spare Earth if he can have the baby son of superhero couple Reed Richards (Pedro Pascal) and Sue Storm (Vanessa Kirby). The Fantastic Four choose to fight, and little Franklin (Ada Scott) becomes a key figure in the action-packed climax. Join our Watch Party! Sign up to receive USA TODAY's movie and TV recommendations right in your inbox The MCU is famous for its top-notch casting, and finding the right baby was as significant to Shakman as choosing his other main actors. 'We knew that the baby would ultimately probably be the biggest challenge of the movie,' he says. 'Just because it's a little bit easier to pull off a Silver Surfer than it is a baby who needs to be a big part of these emotional scenes.' Filmmakers went down two different roads. Several babies were brought in for production purposes because they could only have youngsters on the set for short periods of time. (For example, they used a three-week-old infant for Sue's zero-gravity space birth.) At the same time, Shakman also needed to cast a 'hero baby,' which involve screen testing a bunch of kids, looking for the right one to be a scene partner for the A-list stars. Who is the baby in 'Fantastic Four'? They ultimately cast Ada, a little British girl who was 3 months old during filming. 'She has so much charisma,' Shakman says. 'There's so much intelligence in those eyes. Those eyes look just like Vanessa's eyes, they're kind of extraordinary in that way.' Ada's face was scanned 'extensively multiple times' so that they could build a CGI model of her to use in effects-heavy action scenes or put on top of other babies' bodies for sequences that filmed over multiple nights, like Sue's big speech outside of the Baxter Building. But the real Ada wowed Shakman in a couple of key emotional scenes. One featured just her and Pascal, as Reed Richards tells his son that he doesn't want Franklin to be like him and talks about his insecurities to the child. 'She's looking at him with such understanding but also curiosity,' the director says. Is the baby in 'Fantastic Four' CGI? The other major scene is at the end, where Franklin – who's embued with the 'Power Cosmic,' a big deal in Marvel lore – resurrects his mom after she dies in battle defeating Galactus. 'She showed up to play' that day, Shakman says of Ada. 'It was a really important moment, and Ada knew it was time to turn it on. It was kind of crazy. She seemed to understand, and I don't know how, what the scene was about. She was fully engaged with Vanessa, she was hyperfocused. Her little hands going down on the chest, that's her. The clapping after Vanessa comes back to life, that's her. That's all in camera.' Behind the camera, Shakman had plenty of help with all things baby, too. There was an assistant director whose job was to find the various babies used for filming, while production assistants 'would sometimes jump in with toys trying to get eye lines to work,' Shakman says. Plus, there was a teacher or welfare worker on the set with the babies, along with the mom, dad and/or primary caregiver. In fact, Ada's mom sometimes dressed up in Kirby's supersuit to help get shots early on during filming. By the time the movie finished, Ada "was very comfy crawling around on Vanessa,' Shakman says. And Ebon Moss-Bachrach, who played the motion-capture role of the Thing, also acted as 'an on-camera baby wrangler.' While Shakman loves working with babies, there are times when they aren't always in the best mood or dozing off or upset because they're hungry. 'But I got so lucky,' the director says. 'I had this really special baby who delivered an incredible performance and I still don't know how it happened. So I thank the movie gods for that.'
