Pedro Pascal wants to 'make out with' Kieran Culkin as revenge for 'suck it' Golden Globes speech
Published on March 04, 2026 EDT

Pedro Pascal is hard at work on his next project after becoming a SAG Award winner: kissing Kieran Culkin.

After winning Male Actor in a Drama Series at Saturday's ceremony, the Last of Us actor told Queer Eye star and Netflix's backstage SAG Awards correspondent Tan France he had a plan to exact revenge on Culkin after the Succession star jokingly told Pascal to "suck it" when he beat him in the same category at the Golden Globes earlier this year.

"How badly are you going to rag Kieran at the afterparty tonight?" France asked Pascal in a live interview shortly after his victory over Culkin.

"I'm going to make out with Kieran," Pascal — who admitted on stage that he had a bit too much to drink at the show — replied. "That'll be my revenge."

EW has reached out to a representative for Culkin for comment.

France seemingly got excited over Pascal's admission, and told him he "would love to see this" happen in the hours ahead. He then asked Pascal about his history with Culkin, and the actor opened up about their relationship to date.

"He is the greatest. I can remember, years ago, him taking one of my younger siblings to an FAO Schwartz in Manhattan," Pascal responded, noting that he was in New York City to do a play at the time. "He came up to me and complimented me on the play, he was already famous, had been a lead in the movie Igby Goes Down, and he approached me in public just to tell me that — he doesn't remember this at all, I remember this — we've known each other since then. It's been amazing to see him in that show, to the point of which I feel guilty about not seeing his speech tonight, but it'll be fine."

Though Pascal won over Culkin in the leading category, Culkin still won a SAG statuette at the ceremony, as the Succession cast won as an ensemble for the series overall.
