Diego Luna and Pedro Pascal are two of the biggest names in the Star Wars galaxy, but according to Diego Luna, the duo hasn't gotten a chance to hang out as much as he'd like.

While Diego Luna was present at D23 2024 in Anaheim to share footage of Andor Season 2, where he'll reprise his role as Cassian Andor, Pedro Pascal was notably missing. Pascal is busy filming Marvel's Fantastic Four in the UK and couldn't make it to D23. However, Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni gave a sneak peek of Pascal's return as the beloved helmeted Mandalorian, Din Djarin, in a teaser for The Mandalorian and Grogu.

While speaking to Entertainment Tonight, Luna was asked who he'd like to say 'Hi' to at D23, and he candidly admitted that he wants to see Pedro Pascal again. "Every time I'm in D23, I find a moment to talk to Pedro, and I just go like, 'I wish I was his best friend and we just see each other in these events,'" Diego admitted. This isn't the first time Diego has expressed a desire to hang out with the notoriously busy Pascal, but Diego acknowledges that he hasn't called Pedro in a year, which is understandable with how busy they've both been.

Luna also admitted that even though he's met Pedro over the years at various events, they haven't been able to hang out outside them. "My feeling is I know him, but I don't. I mean, we just see each other with these clothes that are not even ours. We've never had a beer together," he explained. "I really want to see him."

Diego's admiration of Pedro is evident, and it's wonderful how much he wants to sit down for a drink with Pascal. Pedro's no longer on Twitter, but hopefully, he'll hear what Diego has to say, and the two will find time to have a beer very soon. We'd love to see Cassian Andor and Din Djarin having a good time in real life. Both have important Star Wars projects coming up and have made it big outside of the franchise, too. You can be that they would have no shortage of things to talk about over a drink!

Andor Season 2 arrives in 2025 on Disney+.
