“I was really redefining who I was as an actor. I didn’t think I’d fit unless I’d play a sidekick character. I didn’t see myself as a Star-Lord type, or a hero type. This is gonna sound crazy, but I even passed on the opportunity to audition for it a couple of times,” Chris Pratt added in the book. Jeremey Latcham, the executive producer of Guardians of the Galaxy, also shared that it was his wife who thought that the actor would be perfect for the role.
“I remember showing her all the audition tapes, and she was like, ‘You want someone hunky and funny? The guy from Everwood. I think he’s on Parks and Rec now. But on Everwood, he was so hot,'” explained Latcham.
Chris Pratt as Star-Lord seems to be the excellent choice as the actor brings an easygoing charisma and a charm that everyone likes.
