\n\tPedro Pascal<\/a> faced off against his \u201cFantastic Four\u201d co-star Vanessa Kirby during LADbible\u2019s \u201cAgree to Disagree\u201d video series, in which they were asked to debate which is sexier: Mustaches or beards? Pascal has long rocked facial hair throughout his career, but there was one role that required him to go clean shaven. That would be the villainous Maxwell Lord in \u201cWonder Woman 1984<\/a>,\u201d Patty Jenkins and Gal Gadot\u2019s superhero sequel that released to theaters and HBO Max simultaneously on Christmas Day 2020.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI grow such shit facial hair, but if I were to shave it all off\u2026 I really look very [awful]. Strongly disagree with a clean shaven me,\u201d Pascal said. \u201cI was so appalled by the way I look in \u2018Wonder Woman 1984.\u2019 I loved the movie, but I was so appalled by the way that I looked that I never have gone back unless it were completely necessary. If they asked me to be clean shave for \u2018Fantastic Four\u2019 and insisted then I would\u2019ve done it. But it was a very collaborative creation for all of our looks in the movie.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tPascal rocks his trademark mustache as Reed Richards\/Mr. Fantastic in the latest Marvel Cinematic Universe tentpole, a choice that has sparked a bit of backlash amongst superhero obsessives who are committed to the clean-shaven Reed from the comic books. Pascal, who is no stranger to franchise fare thanks to \u201cThe Last of Us\u201d and \u201cThe Mandalorian,\u201d previously told\u00a0Vanity Fair<\/a> that it was hard to avoid fan complaints when he was cast and he constantly heard: \u201cHe\u2019s too old. He\u2019s not right. He needs to shave.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI\u2019m more aware of disgruntlement around my casting than anything I\u2019ve ever done,\u201d\u00a0Pascal said.<\/p>\n

\n\tAs for Maxwell Lord, the \u201cWonder Woman 1984\u201d role was a one and done stop for Pascal in the previous DC Universe. He\u2019s now playing a major role in the MCU and is already confirmed to be returning as Reed in next year\u2019s tentpole \u201cAvengers: Doomsday.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tMarvel\u2019s \u201cFantastic Four\u201d opens in theaters July 25.
