For the unversed, the rumours of romance between Hollywood A-listers, Jennifer Aniston and Pedro Pascal, began to swirl earlier this week, after the two were spotted on a nearly-three-hour dinner date, at the Sunset Tower Hotel in West Hollywood.
Their photos took social media by storm, and fans were hoping for the two to be dating.
Addressing their viral pics, the Gladiator II star said, “We’re very good friends, and we went to dinner with mutual friends.”
“It was a fun martini dinner,” he told a foreign publication at the premiere of The Last of Us season 2 on Monday.

As a media reporter joked that Pascal ‘can’t even get a martini without everyone talking about it’, the actor replied with a smile, “That’s her [Aniston] starlight. I’m just basking in it.”
Notably, Pascal has never been married in his 49 years of life, whereas Aniston, 56, had been married twice previously, to Hollywood heartthrob Brad Pitt and actor-director Justin Theroux.
