Pedro Pascal has been named one of PEOPLE's Sexiest Men of the Year, but he doesn't find himself so easy to look at without any scruff.
"I grow such s--- facial hair," Pascal said on Monday's edition of LADbible's "Agree to Disagree" video series, in which he spoke with Vanessa Kirby, one of his costars in the upcoming movie The Fantastic Four: First Steps. "But if I were to shave it all off, I really look very [awful]. Strongly disagree with a clean-shaven me."

Pedro Pascal goes clean-shaven in 'Wonder Woman 1984'
Pascal took particular issue with his appearance in the 2020 movie Wonder Woman 1984, in which he plays the villainous Maxwell Lord completely clean-shaven.
"I was so appalled by the way I look in Wonder Woman 1984," Pascal said. "I loved the movie, but I was so appalled by the way that I looked that I never have gone back — unless it were completely necessary,"
"If they asked me to be clean-shaven for Fantastic Four and insisted, then I would've done it," said Pascal, who's especially known for his roles in hit genre shows Game of Thrones, The Mandalorian, and The Last of Us. "But it was a very collaborative creation for all of our looks in the movie."
The new film is set in the 1960s on a parallel world in the Marvel multiverse. Pascal's Reed Richards is a genius inventor in this retrofuturist landscape and a character who follows in the actor's streak of roles that have sky-high expectations from fans of each title's respective books, films, and video games.

"It was really intimidating," Pascal told EW for our April cover story on the film. "I relied on the people that I was around to hold me to the experience and help get me through it. Stepping into something like Game of Thrones and then going into the early days of Netflix with Narcos and then Star Wars and the world of video games with The Last of Us, each time I've felt like I couldn't top how intimidating the last one was."
He continued, "They're all scary because you really want to make people happy, especially if it's something that's widely known with particular expectations around it, because you want those expectations to be met. You also want to be authentic to yourself so that it can be the best that it can be for anybody who wants to be entertained by a story and travel with us into this world."
The Fantastic Four: First Steps hits theaters on Friday, July 25.
