Pedro Pascal smiling
The 2022 Nicholas Cage movie The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent came and went without much attention. In the film, Cage plays a washed-up version of himself who agrees to star in an independent movie funded by a drug lord, played by internet heartthrob Pedro Pascal. It’s a fun but forgettable movie, but a year after its release, memes picked out a clip of the two actors in a car where an oblivious smiling Pascal gazes loving at a confused Nicholas Cage. For a moment, the internet went wild with gifs and videos of the exchange.
