Remember when Chris Pratt danced on an alien planet to “Come And Get Your Love” in Guardians of the Galaxy? That was 2014, and the MCU was forever changed! A decade later, Pratt reflected on how Peter Quill transformed his life. He celebrated with an Instagram post, expressing gratitude for the journey and his fantastic cast and crew.
Let’s rewind for a second. Pratt was known as the charmingly awkward Andy Dwyer on Parks and Recreation before he was a galaxy-saving heron. But when Guardians came knocking, he wasn’t exactly rolling out the red carpet for himself. He thought, “I wasn’t physically right for it,” but felt he could nail the role.
After an audition that dazzled Marvel, he lost 60 pounds. He transformed from a lovable goofball into the roguishly charming Star-Lord we all adore. After Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 wrapped up last summer, our favorite band of misfits went their separate ways. Peter Quill set off on a quest to find his grandfather on Earth. As for Pratt’s future in the MCU? He played it cool, saying he was “not exactly sure” about his next adventure but didn’t want to spoil any surprises if he did know. Mystery vibes, right?
