He then played in À toute vitesse (Full Speed), a film by young Gaël Morel where he was Quentin, a writer that everyone falls in love with. Pascal Cervo pursues a career of strong loyalty, working with art filmmakers such as Gaël Morel, Laurent Achard, Paul Vecchiali (of whom Cervo is one of his favorite and recurring actors), Pierre Léon, etc. He also worked with Jean-Claude Biette and Robert Guédiguian and played in TV series and in theatre.

Pascal Cervo replies to Catherine Deneuve in Le Cancre (2016). He was recently praised for his first role in Jours de France (Four Days in France) in 2017, where he interprets Pierre who after leaving his companion Paul (Arthur Igual) travels France randomly and meets unknown people using Grindr.
