Season 3 of ‘The Mandalorian’ is here! And with fans of the series speculating about what will happen next in the popular Disney+ show, Pedro Pascal is sharing his thoughts about the new storyline and upcoming seasons, including his admiration for Lionel Messi.

Pascal explained that the audience would want to “recognize” him, as most of the mandalorians are known for keeping their helmet on at all times. “There are different cultures in Mandalore and some of them can take off their helmet. Messi would be one of them.”

“What a great movie ‘Argentina, 1985,’” Messi wrote on Instagram Stories, sharing a scene from the film, following the Oscar nomination. “Let’s go for the third,” he added, tagging actor Ricardo Darín. Pascal took a screenshot of Messi’s Instagram Story and shared it on social media, writing, “Great day for Messi who praised the film Argentina, 1985.”
