This is the slay! Sarah Michelle Gellar shared a pic of young Pedro Pascal in Buffy – and the internet is loving it
Long before Pedro Pascal was looking after Grogu on The Mandalorian or ferrying a young girl across an apocalyptic US in The Last of Us, he was rubbing shoulders with Sarah Michelle Gellar on Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Gellar is currently starring in Wolf Pack, a supernatural teen drama that airs every Thursday, exclusively on
