AceShowbiz - Pedro Pascal's love for coffee knows no limit. The actor, who currently stars on HBO's drama series "The Last of Us", jokes that he's taking 12 shots of espresso after his chaotic Starbucks order has gone viral.

The 47-year-old star had a run-in with photographers on Wednesday, March 15 while making a coffee run in Los Angeles to fulfill his daily intake of caffeine. Spotted leaving a coffee shop with his favorite drink in hand, he appeared to troll everyone who has been debating about his excessive coffee intake.

In a video obtained by TMZ, when a videographer asked the Chilean-born star, "How many shots of coffee did you get in that cup?" he replied, "Twelve," with exaggerated expression. He then flashed a smile before entering his car.

Pedro dressed down for the outing. He wore a beige sweater and gray shorts with white sneakers and light blue socks. He also sported brown-rimmed glasses and his signature trimmed facial hair.

Pedro got social media users in shambles after a TikTok video showed him carefully cradling a coffee cup with two hands when leaving Starbucks. A user zoomed in on the clip, breaking down all that went into his venti cup. The label said he had 6 shots of coffee at the time.

"Daddy needs his coffee every morning to carry the entire world and a fandom over his shoulders," the user captioned the video.

The video prompted various reactions from others, with one person enthusing, "As a barista I feel like my work would make me sign a legal waiver before handing Pedro Pascal his Starbucks order." A concerned fan asked, "Omg is he okay."

A third jokingly asked, "How does he not pass out from all that caffeine?" A fourth remarked, "This man is chaos." Another weighed in, "It would take a whole week for me to finish this cup."

"I love coffee but what is this… a cocaine substitute?" someone quipped. One other fan commented, "He said that he wouldn't live without coffee BUT NOW WE UNDERSTAND WHY MG."
