It turns out Pedro Pascal was in some real pain when filming one of the biggest scenes in the first season of "The Mandalorian."

The star, who plays Mando on the show, revealed in the latest episode of the Disney Plus show "Disney Gallery: The Mandalorian," that he had an accident before rehearsing Mando's big unmasking moment in the season finale episode.

"I stepped out of the makeup trailer looking at my sides and walked into a piece of plywood," Pascal said while talking to the show's executive producers Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni, and stars Gina Carano and Carl Weathers in a round table talk for episode 3 of "Disney Galley" (which premieres on Friday).

"I have never gone to the hospital for work before," he said.

Pascal was already made up with a bloody and cut up face to rehearse the scene in the finale when IG-11 takes off his helmet to heal his wounds, so he looked worse than he actually was when he showed up to the hospital.

"They are like, 'let him in,'" Favreau joked of what the reaction was at the hospital.

Pascal cut the bridge of his nose and he said he had to have seven stitches.

But then he went back to work to do the big scene.

"I thought that was so cool," Carano told Pascal of him going back to work.

Favreau noted that Pascal's injury worked for the scene because Mando is already in pretty bad shape.

"You were really in it," Filoni said with a laugh. "Method."

New episodes of "Disney Gallery: The Mandalorian" launches every Friday on Disney Plus.
