Pedro Pascal recalls getting an eye infection after weird fan encounters

Pedro Pascal fans can be a bit too handsy.

"The Last of Us" actor, 48, sat down with fellow actors Jeff Bridges, Kieran Culkin, Damson Idris, Michael Imperioli and Evan Peters for a roundtable discussion with The Hollywood Reporter on Wednesday to discuss drama acting.

The group's conversation turned to fan encounters they've had with their viewers, to which Pascal seemed to top.

Pascal recalled that after "Game of Thrones" fans saw his character Oberyn Martell's brutal death in Season 4, fans began to recreate the scene in which Martell's eyes were gouged out during a fight to the death with Gregor “The Moutain” Clegane (Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson).

"People were super into taking selfies with their thumbs in my eyes," Pascal shared. "And at first, I was so earnest and happy about the success of the character in the show, I’d let them."

That all came to a halt, he said, explaining, "And then I remember getting a bit of an eye infection."

"Succession" star Culkin responded, "Wow, that's a lot of trust."

Pascal went on to other popular roles, including HBO hit "The Last of Us" and Disney+ show "The Mandalorian."

The actor previously poked fun at his increased fame during his "Saturday Night Live" hosting debut on Feb. 4.

"It’s an honor to be a part of these huge franchises like 'Game of Thrones' and 'Star Wars,' but I’m still getting used to people recognizing me," he said during his opening monologue. "The other day, some guy stopped me on the street and said 'my son loves 'The Mandalorian.' And the next thing I know I’m FaceTiming with this six-year-old who has no idea who I am because my character wears a mask for the entire show."

The child's father asked him to do his character's voice, to which Pascal said, "It's like a bedroom voice. Without the mask, it just sounds horny."
