The internet has officially gone into a frenzy after seeing photos of Jennifer Aniston, 56, leaving dinner with Pedro Pascal, 49. Fans are speculating on social media that the pair could be in a relationship after they were spotted enjoying a meal together at Tower Bar at the Sunset Tower Hotel in West Hollywood on Saturday night (Sunday in Australia). The sighting has ignited a whirlwind of excitement and curiosity among fans and followers of both stars.
Just days after the dinner, Pedro Pascal addressed the buzz surrounding their outing during an interview on the red carpet for the season two premiere of his hit series, The Last Of Us. When asked about the dinner and whether Aniston might be a potential guest star in the upcoming season, Pascal responded with a light-hearted tone. “Oh Jennifer… Jennifer and I are very good friends,” he said, adding that their dinner was “a fun martini dinner.” His comments seemed to downplay the romantic speculation, yet they did little to quell the excitement among fans.
The internet erupted with reactions as photos of the pair chatting at the valet of Tower Bar circulated online. Social media users expressed their disbelief and support for the potential pairing. One user on X (formerly Twitter) exclaimed, “Jennifer Aniston with Pedro Pascal having dinner!? Am I dreaming!? Please!” Another chimed in, “Pedro Pascal and Jennifer Aniston, I don’t know what’s going on but I support it with my whole chest.” The enthusiasm was palpable, with many fans rallying behind the idea of the two Hollywood heavyweights as a couple.
Despite the swirling rumors, Pascal seemed to embrace the attention, joking that the spotlight was all due to “her starlight” while he was merely “basking in it.” This playful acknowledgment of their chemistry only fueled the speculation further. In a separate interview with Access Hollywood, Pascal elaborated on his friendship with Aniston, stating that she is someone he would reach out to in times of crisis. He described her as a calming presence, saying, “If you’re really high at a party, make eye contact with Jen Aniston and she’ll calm your central nervous system.”
The pair’s connection has been evident before, notably during their interaction at the 2024 Critics Choice Awards. Pascal made headlines when he interrupted Aniston’s interview with co-star Reese Witherspoon, expressing his desire to be involved with The Morning Show, Aniston’s acclaimed series. Their playful banter and chemistry were undeniable, with Aniston even mouthing “Oh. My. God.” when Pascal reached for her hand, a moment that sent fans into a frenzy.
While the dating rumors are thrilling, there is a strong possibility that the two were simply meeting as friends to discuss work. Pascal hinted at the prospect of appearing in the upcoming fourth season of The Morning Show, which is set to be released in the second half of 2025. This potential collaboration adds another layer to their relationship, leaving fans eager to see what unfolds.
As the speculation continues, the excitement surrounding Jennifer Aniston and Pedro Pascal’s dinner is a testament to the fascination that celebrity pairings evoke. Whether they are simply friends or something more, the chemistry between these two stars has captured the attention of fans worldwide, making them one of the most talked-about duos in Hollywood today.
