Pedro Pascal in Talks for Tony Gilroy’s Behemoth!

Pedro Pascal is in talks to star in Behemoth!, a film recently acquired by Searchlight Pictures and written and directed by Tony Gilroy, known for Andor and Michael Clayton. The movie reportedly centers on a cellist who composes music for movies, with Oscar Isaac having exited the project due to scheduling conflicts. Pascal, whose 2025 slate includes The Fantastic Four: First Steps, Materialists, Eddington, and The Last of Us Season 2, is considered one of Hollywood’s most sought-after actors. Negotiations for Pascal's role are ongoing, with multiple sources reporting progress. Production on Behemoth! is expected to begin this fall in Los Angeles. This film marks Gilroy's return to directing movies after over a decade.
