After Joel's death in Sunday's episode of The Last of Us, Pedro Pascal's Emmy category placement remains up in the air for now, but there is one category he most definitely will not be submitted in: Best Drama Guest Actor.

In 2023, Pascal made history as the second Latino ever nominated in the lead drama actor category, joining Jimmy Smits. He also became the most-nominated Latino in a single year, picking up nods for “The Last of Us” (lead drama actor), “Saturday Night Live” (guest comedy actor) and “Patagonia: Life on the Edge of the World” (narrator).

Pedro Pascal, who plays Joel in HBO's The Last of Us adaptation, has shared his thoughts on the shocking events from this week's episode.
