Jennifer Aniston recently enjoyed a 3-hour dinner with a fellow actor, and fans immediately assumed they were an item.
According TMZ, the "Friends" alum partook in a night out with Gladiator II star Pedro Pascal and a few other mutual acquaintances over the weekend, sparking romance rumors. However, a source told the outlet that the standouts are just friends, and have been for years.
Pascal commented on their connection during an interview with Access Hollywood on Monday (March 24), zooming in on their friendship and The Switch actress's calming nature.
"I would do anything for Jennifer," the actor remarked after hinting at the possibility of Aniston joining his HBO series "The Last Of Us" and himself joining the cast of her beloved Apple TV+ series, "The Morning Show".
"She’s that person. She’s that person to everyone. It’s just that really. I guess the best way that I could describe it is I remember… if you’re in a party setting and you make eye contact with Jen, she just knows exactly what’s going on with you and knows exactly how to make you feel."
An insider also told People that Aniston would not be opposed to working with the "Narcos" star in the future and that she likes his "energy."
