Pedro Pascalis no stranger to road rage.The Last of Usstar said he’s had three recent anger incidents while driving — one which ended with a slimy lesson learned.
In a conversation withBeefstarSteven YeunforVariety— while discussing the rage-fueled plot of the Netflix series — Pascal, 48, recounted his latest altercation on the road.
“Yesterday was a day. It was my fault,” he told Yeun. “I’ve had three incidents, and they’ve all been my fault.”
This one, in particular, wasn’t mess free. “I cut somebody off, and I look over, and there’s a big glob of saliva — like visual effects put it there, man — just dripping down the side of the passenger window. And my sister was like, ‘F—!’”

Yeun, 39, chimed in to ask for details. “Holy s—. Like a glob from the driver’s side? He just hocked a hard loogie at you?” he asked.
When Pascal confirmed the other driver spit at him, he said the altercation didn’t actually make him angry at all — unlike the characters inBeef. It actually did the opposite.
“I was in shock. It didn’t trigger any rage out of me. It absolutely humbled me and shocked me, scared me a little bit, disturbed me,” Pascal said, later adding, “They want me to drink in their saliva. It made me feel guilty. I was like, ‘Gosh, people are going through s—.'"
“I was watchingBeefwith envy, in terms of how much it reflects such a living truth that can happen anywhere but was happening to me yesterday in Los Angeles,” Pascal said. “Which made me admire your performance even more because I was like, ‘You’re nailing it.’”
