But the one who isn’t has the perfect accent for his character.
Does Pedro Pascal really have an accent though? Every interview i can find of him he sounds very american. Only when he said his name did I even hear a hint of a Chilean accent.
Pascal’s family left Chile when he was nine months old, so it would be a lot weirder if he did have a Chilean accent.
Not really. Your speech patterns are formed by those around you (such as friends and family), not necessarily your geographical location.
He speaks with an American Accent because he learned English from Americans
My god people…
Everyone has an accent.
Needlessly pedantic there, buddy. To answer the question: no he doesn’t have a particularly strong or regional american-english accent, it is very neutral.
Look dude this forum isn’t your American backyard. You absolutely should learn how to be more specific when it comes to accents. Your ear is your own. This is a you problem.
He sounds pretty Southern Californian or at least from the West coast.
…
By “fake an accent” do you mean…
Acting?

No.
Neither is code switching.

This seems pedentic to me, to be honest,
Because you’re lacking foundational knowledge…
And apparently aren’t interested in other people explaining things to you so that you can understand what you’re talking about.
If you disagree, cool.
If you don’t want to reply, just stop
But other people may need the same explanation. So as long as you keep typing replies, some is probably going to keep trying to clarify so you understand.
It ain’t gonna be me tho
Faking implies distrust. Acting implies skill. Know the difference…

Sure. A healthy and respectful response, however maybe you shouldn’t consume media e.g. go to the theater or watch tv/ movies. If you can’t distinguish real from fiction

The probable idea is that they are not representing a background that they share with their character, which there has been a push for recently.
however, there are also “colorblind” casts being done recently as well, so it’s one trend or another.
Also, it’s hollywood, you expect the majority of the cast to be from the country of production of a film.
Do you normally engage in this sort of *restricted logic?
What, explaining the reason why things happen to people who are oblivious as to what is happening? I’m not saying any of the things I said are good,bad or things I agree with. It is what it is, and that’s what I’m pointing out.

When the fuck has that ever been true?
…
That the majority of the inhabitants of a country are from that country? Forever.
I’m a serial immigrant, and I have always expected the majority of people I interact to be natives. And since you guys seem to be rabidly trying to interpret me as some bigot, by expect I mean my percieved idea of what will happen, not what my aspiration is.
Exactly. The majority of the actors of any movie will be Pedro Pascal.
So should Thor come from Walhalla?
He has to really be able to control lightning too…
Otherwise he’s “faking it”
-
Learn to spell
-
Valhalla isn’t a real place, how would you get an actor from there?
America isn’t a real place either. Nyeh.
-
Only Americans can play Americans!
Like bro…
Do you really not see a difference between ethnicity and nationality?
To you, those are the same?
