Pedro Pascal has a big family and, like any Latin person, a very active WhatsApp group. The Chilean actor was recently a guest at "Jimmy Kimmel Live," where he discussed some of his upcoming projects, like the second season of "The Last of Us" and the upcoming "Fantastic Four: First Steps." He also discussed some personal topics, like his family and the fact that he has 34 cousins who are mad at him after he left their WhatsApp group.

He revealed that he and his sister counted their cousins at her wedding. "They're all in Santiago, Chile. They're not talking to me right now because I ditched the WhatsApp group."

After Kimmel said that Pascal can't leave those family groups without expecting some drama, he joked, "I'm too big now. I'm too famous, leave me alone!" He then tried to name all of his cousins and managed to name 24 of them.
Pascal gears up for the release of 'Fantastic Four: First Steps'
Pascal is gearing up for a big year, seeing the release of two of his biggest projects to date. "The Last of Us" season two premieres this April 13th, while the "Fantastic Four: First Steps," premieres this July 25th.
When asked about the details of the movie, Pascal had a blank expression. "I don't know. All of the saliva is evaporating in my throat. Now I'm nervous," he said, making it clear just how serious it is for him not to reveal any spoilers.
When teasing some of the things his character can do, Pascal confirmed that he plays Mr. Fantastic, who has the superpower to stretch his limbs, including his ears. "We do that," he said. "And I fly away."
