Variety reported on the things that viewers at home didn't see at the Golden Globes. Included in that report was Pascal's experience.

He explained to the outlet that a simple at-home accident caused him to need a sling. Ironically, he did something most everyone has done: Fall down the stairs.

Pascal told the outlet that he fell down “some stairs” at his family's house. Variety called it a “broken wing” and noted that he claims he will have surgery later in January.

Fear not, Last of Us fans, Pascal reassured Variety that ht “expects to be ready to go” when Season 2 of the HBO show begins production. That is set for mid-February as of the time of this writing.
