The new "Gladiator" is about to hit cinemas. Based on how quickly tickets are selling out and the level of interest in the production, it could be a real hit by the end of 2024 and a contender for several Oscars. Critics are writing about a great spectacle that leaves audiences in awe. The official premiere with stars occurred in London, and Pedro Pascal was in attendance.

Transgender actress Lux Pascal supported her older brother Pedro Pascal at the film's premiere at Leicester Square in London. Wearing a stunning black dress with daring cut-outs, Lux quickly garnered many compliments on social media, and many fans wanted to learn more about the actor's sister.

Lux publicly announced her transgender status in 2021, appearing on the cover of the Chilean magazine "Ya". She began hormone therapy in July of the previous year, and her family showed her full support. "For everyone in my family my transition has been something very natural," Lux said at the time.

Pedro has always been an important part of her life. When Lux told her brother about her transition over FaceTime, he asked her how she felt. "I replied that I was happy. And he said: 'Perfect, this is incredible!'" recalls Lux. Pedro also shared warm words for his sister on Instagram, writing: "Mi hermana, mi corazón, nuestra Lux" ["My sister, my heart, our Lux."].

The youngest of the siblings, Lux followed in her brother's footsteps, starting her own acting career. She graduated from the prestigious Juilliard School in 2023 and has appeared in productions such as "The Prince," "Invisible Heroes," and the Chilean series "Los 80". She also appeared alongside Pedro in "Narcos" and has worked as a model.

On the red carpet, Lux frequently accompanies her brother, supporting him at various events, including the Emmy Awards. At the "Gladiator 2" premiere, fans were delighted with her appearance, joking that Pedro was relegated to being Lux's "plus one". "Lux Pascal stole the show! No one looks at Pedro when she's around," was written on social media.
