Part 3/10:
A recurring theme in Hollywood discussions centers on the celebrity "sex appeal" and how actors are marketed to audiences. Pascal is frequently portrayed as a "hunky" figure, often highlighted in social media TikTok edits and sketches, especially on Saturday Night Live, which accentuate his sex appeal. However, some critics find this hype overblown, emphasizing that Pascal's mainstream appeal is more about his acting talent than physical attraction.
In contrast, actress Vanessa Kirby is increasingly viewed as a genuine movie star, thanks to acclaimed roles in films like Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning. Her established film background lends her a different kind of prestige compared to television actors like Pascal or Joseph Quinn.
