He is best friends with Sarah Paulson and Oscar Isaac. Pascal was born in Santiago, Chile. His mother, Verónica Pascal Ureta, was a child psychologist and his father, José Balmaceda, is a fertility doctor; he has an older sister, Javiera, and two younger siblings, Nicolás, and Lux Pascal (born Lucas), an actress and transgender activist in Chile. Pascal’s parents were supporters of the Marxist president Salvador Allende, and were involved in the opposition movement against the military dictatorship of Augusto Pinochet in Chile around the time of Pascal’s birth. His mother was the cousin of Andrés Pascal Allende (the son of President Allende’s sister Laura), the leader of the Movement of the Revolutionary Left, an urban guerrilla movement dedicated to Pinochet’s overthrow. Because of this, nine months after his birth, Pascal’s family was granted political asylum in Denmark. The family ultimately moved to the United States, and Pascal was raised in Orange County, California and San Antonio, Texas. By the time he was 8, his family was able to take regular trips back to Chile to visit his 34 first cousins. Pascal was involved in competitive swimming during his early years and took part in the state championships in Texas at the age of 11, but stopped competitive swimming after getting into drama class. He studied acting at the Orange County School of the Arts, graduating in 1993, and New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts, graduating in 1997. While at NYU, Pascal’s father was involved in a scandal at the Orange County fertility clinic he ran with fellow doctors Ricardo Asch and Sergio Stone. Asch and Balmaceda were charged with taking over 60 patients’ eggs and embryos and implanting them in other women without their consent or knowledge. They were also charged with concealing more than $1 million in earnings. Pascal’s father, alongside his mother and two youngest siblings, fled to Chile to escape the charges he was facing. His mother died shortly after. Following her death, he began using his mother’s surname professionally both in honor of her and because people couldn’t pronounce his surname.
