Move over, Oscars—Pedro Pascal and Lupita Nyong’o are owning the red carpet game with hugs so wholesome they could cure seasonal depression. The dynamic duo lit up the 68th BFI London Film Festival on Sunday (October 13), promoting their latest flick, The Wild Robot, and looking like they just stepped out of a fashion fever dream.
A Hug Heard ‘Round the Red Carpet
Outside The Royal Festival Hall, these two acted like long-lost friends reuniting after accidentally texting, “u up?” at 3 a.m. Instead of the usual red carpet wave-and-smile, Pedro and Lupita embraced with the kind of joy that says, “We’re definitely sneaking out early for nachos later.”
Pedro’s Suit: Bold or ‘Did He Get Dressed in the Dark?’
Pedro rolled up in a green suit that made him look like the most fashionable avocado at the party. And if that weren’t enough, he paired it with a darker shirt that screamed, “I may be classy, but I also know where to find the best espresso martini in town.”
Lupita’s Outfit: Effortless Chic Meets Cozy Aunt Energy
Lupita strutted the carpet like the fashion queen she is, wearing a sleek white suit, accessorized with a massive scarf. Honestly, it looked so comfy that half the attendees were probably tempted to borrow it for a quick nap. She finished the look with a chic black bag—probably filled with snacks because being stylish is hard work.
Surprise Guests: Bill Nighy and the Legend Chris Sanders
Joining the party were The Wild Robot costar Bill Nighy (who brought his usual “cool grandpa at Christmas” energy) and director/screenwriter Chris Sanders, looking like he just came from a brainstorming session about the next animated hit.
But Wait, There’s More!
In case you missed it, The Wild Robot also stars Kit Connor—because why stop at an all-star cast when you can have the whole constellation? The movie officially premiered in late September, but clearly, these folks are still riding high on the good vibes and glowing reviews.
Don’t miss out on the red carpet photos—because trust us, this event was a whole mood. Pedro and Lupita redefined friendship goals, fashion goals, and maybe even life goals.
(Spoiler alert: The Wild Robot? Probably not that wild. But Pedro and Lupita? Definitely are.)
