Pedro Pascal’s younger sister, Lux Pascal, has become a star in her own right. The 33-year-old (to Pedro’s 50) has graced red carpets and acted in notable projects like Narcos. Here’s everything to know about Lux and her sweet sibling dynamic with her older brother Pedro.
Lux was born on June 4, 1992, in Orange County, California. She was raised in Chile and studied theater there. She earned her bachelor’s degree at Pontificia Universidad Catolica de Chile and later attended Juilliard, graduating with her MFA in 2023.
Her acting roles include Netflix’s Narcos and the Spanish-language productions Miss Carbón and La Jauría. In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Lux revealed that she currently has a few American roles in the works. “I have two projects coming out, and I filmed one,” she shared with THR. “I can’t really give details of what’s coming up, but yes, I do have projects coming up in the United States, and I’m excited.”
In her 2021 Ya Magazine cover story, Lux publicly came out as a transgender woman. In the story, she spoke about how much Pedro supported her throughout her transition. Translated to English, she said, “He’s been an important part of this. He’s also an artist and has been a guide. He was one of the first to give me the things that shaped my identity.”
Pedro also posted her Ya cover on his Instagram and captioned it, “Mi hermana, mi corazón, nuestra Lux,” which translates in English to “My sister, my heart, our Lux.”
Lux has since elaborated on what Pedro’s support means to her. “What makes him so fabulous is that he wears all of his humanity on his sleeve, and he doesn’t hide who he is,” she told THR. “And I think that’s refreshing, because usually we move around the world hiding who we are. That’s the main lesson I’ve gotten from him: There’s no reason for me to hide who I am, right? And I think people are seeing that.”
“We protect each other very much,” Lux told People. “He protects me a lot, but I guess I'm more under the radar, but I protect him a lot too.”
She also spoke about the joys of growing up with him. “He has a very powerful personality, and he was always the most fun to be around with,” she said. “I would ditch all my friends just to hang out with my brother. It was such a special moment whenever he would visit us in Chile.”
In his 2023 Esquire cover story, Pedro spoke about their childhood, too. “[Lux] ruled the household right away,” he shared. “When my older sister and I would visit [Chile], we were like intruders. Our mother was her mother, but for us to think that we were entitled to this woman’s attention in any way was absurd.”
He elaborated on their connection, saying, “She is and has always been one of the most powerful people and personalities I’ve ever known. My protective side is lethal, but I need her more than she needs me.”
Lux has made several red carpet appearances with Pedro.
In January 2024, the siblings attended the Emmys in Los Angeles. Pedro was nominated for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series for his role in The Last of Us.
They also stopped by HBO’s post-Emmy Reception in West Hollywood.
Last November, Lux joined her brother for his Gladiator II premiere in London.
In May 2025, the siblings attended the Eddington red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival in France.
On July 21, Lux went to Pedro’s Fantastic Four: First Steps Los Angeles premiere.
