“She is that person [who is good in a crisis],” Pascal added of their friendship. “The best way that I could describe it is I remember, if you’re in a party setting and you make eye contact with Jen, she just knows exactly what’s going on with you and knows exactly how to make you feel.”

He joked, “If you’re really high at a party, make eye contact with Jen Aniston and she’ll calm your central nervous system. You’ll be like, ‘Oh no, everything’s fine. I’m safe.’”

Pedro Pascal and Jennifer Aniston enjoyed a night off while having dinner with friends.

Pascal, 49, and Aniston, 56, left the Tower Bar at the Sunset Tower Hotel in West Hollywood on Saturday, March 22.

Pascal donned a black leather jacket with jeans and suede boots while Aniston rocked a white T-shirt with a black vest, pairing the look with blue jeans and black high-heel boots.

In a photo obtained by Us Weekly, Pascal and Aniston were seen chatting with friends outside the valet.

One year before their outing, Pascal and Aniston made headlines when they did a joint interview with her The Morning Show costar Reese Witherspoon at the 2024 Critics Choice Awards red carpet.

“He’s got the chicest arm sling I’ve ever seen,” Aniston said of Pascal’s injury. “It’s the softest thing I’ve ever felt.” (Pascal shared at the 2024 Golden Globes that he “fell.”)

Pascal interjected that he didn’t want to talk about his injury, but he instead wanted to discuss the The Morning Show. When asked what he wanted to speak about, he quipped, “I just want to stand next to it, I want to be near it, that’s it.”

Aniston and Witherspoon, 49, proceeded to ask Pascal whether he would be interested in a part on the series, which premiered in 2021.

“We actually do have a really good part for him,” Witherspoon said, to which Aniston gasped.

“Alright, pitch it to me now,” Pascal said, while joking that his character would “sleep with everyone on the show.” While grabbing Aniston’s hand, he added, “I’m in. Alright, I’ll be waiting to hear from my agents. Draw it up. Send me a script. Or just pitch it to me in the room.”

Pascal proceeded to exit the interview, kissing Aniston’s hand on the way out. “We hired him and then he just fired himself,” Aniston joked. “We love him.”

The Morning Show, which was renewed in 2023, has not yet released a date for the season 4 premiere. It was reported in June 2024 that Marion Cotillard would be joining the cast as Celine Dumont, a savvy operator from a storied European family.

Later that month, TVLine confirmed that the dad of Aniston’s Alex Levy would be added to the crew. While his casting wasn’t initially announced, the outlet reported in July 2024 that Jeremy Irons was cast. That same month, news broke that The Good Place’s William Jackson Harper was added as the Head of Sports at the network.
