During The Mandalorian’s premiere in Los Angeles, Pedro Pascal found out about a throwback photo that Sarah Michelle Gellar shared on Instagram, which showed them together on the set of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Pascal, who had a small role as Eddie in one episode of the show, expressed his admiration for Gellar and her good nature.
“What I just found out — which I am very excited about, and I can’t wait to get my phone back so that I can look it up myself — is that Sarah Michelle Gellar remembers me,” he told. “I remember every moment of shooting that episode, as brief as it was, she was such a kind scene partner and we had the best time.”
Pascal recalled that Gellar brought him some ice cream while the pair were filming on the UCLA campus together.
“I remember she had ice cream in her trailer, and she gave me some,” he said. “She went back to her trailer, she got me some ice cream and she shared — ’cause it was a night shoot, it was in the middle of the night, and we were on the UCLA campus. They hadn’t built their college sets yet.”
“She was incredibly kind. She taught me how to use a sandbag to hit my mark,” Pascal continued. “She was the best.”
