“I remember, earlier on, because of ‘Game of Thrones’ and the way my character died, people were super into taking selfies with their thumbs in my eyes,”

he explained as the rest of them laughed.

For those who aren’t aware, Pascal’s character, Oberyn Martell, died during a duel with Gregor

“The Moutain”

Clegane. His eyes were gouged out and his skull was crushed in the series. 

“At first, I was so earnest and happy about the success of the character in the show, and I’d let them! In New York, of all places!”

the 48-year-old Chilean actor admitted.

“And then I remember getting a bit of an eye infection.”

The ‘Last of Us’ actor also revealed that he’s

“having fun”

“I am having fun with it, it seems a little role related,”

he said.
