Pedro Pascal Seen with Rafael Olarra During New York Movie Outing
Photographs of Pedro Pascal with rafael olarra in New York City — walking arm‑in‑arm and later sitting together at a theater to watch Wuthering Heights — have circulated around the world, drawing attention because the public display of affection involves two men and a major star.
Rafael Olarra and Pascal spotted arm‑in‑arm
Paparazzi images show Pedro Pascal strolling through New York streets holding onto Rafael Olarra, with some shots capturing the pair walking arm‑in‑arm. The two were photographed together over the Valentine’s Day weekend, and the nature of their relationship is unknown; neither has clarified it, and neither has said anything about it.
They watched Wuthering Heights in a cozy theater
After their walk, Pascal and rafael olarra sat down to watch the period romance Wuthering Heights, the film starring Jacob Elordi and Margot Robbie. Observers noted the pair periodically chatting in the cozy theater during the screening.
Sightseeing, Lower East Side lunch and cold weather
The day included sightseeing across the city: the two were snapped touring the Lower East Side before grabbing lunch on Sunday. Photographs show them bundled up in multiple layers as they braved the winter cold that has been oppressing the Big Apple this season.
Images prompt discussion about public displays of affection
Social posts in other languages described the pair as photographed "in a romantic mood" while walking embraced in New York, and images of the outing have fueled debate about what such public affection means when it involves two men. Ian Carlos Crawford wrote that, "Whether or not he’s actively aware of how this modern approach to masculinity contributes to his likeness, one thing is clear: he’s setting an example for other men in Hollywood, but most importantly a new generation of Latinx men. "
Advocates call the images meaningful
Óscar Muñoz, co‑director of the Business Network for LGBTI Diversity and Inclusion (REDI), said, "If two men can openly express their affection and closeness in the street, it means we’re doing something right as a society. Those of us in the LGBTQ+ community know this all too well, as we’ve learned to hide preventively for fear of suffering attacks or discrimination, which are still common. " He added that "It’s crucial to have visible role models, who tend to be more frequent in the art world, but less common in other contexts, " and went on to say "When someone comes out publicly or in the workplace, whether as part of the community or as" — unclear in the provided context.
Past links and what is publicly known
Rafael Olarra was last linked to actor and singer Luke Evans; the two confirmed their split in 2021 after a little over a year together. Pedro Pascal has never spoken publicly about his love life, but he has been described as a longtime supporter of the LGBTQ+ community and has been applauded for representing a form of masculinity that moves away from macho stereotypes, dares to be sensitive, and takes risks on the red carpet.
It is unclear in the provided context what, if any, public appearances or comments the two have planned next.
