Pratt was famously married to Anna Faris for eight years and divorced in 2018. According to sources close to US Weekly, the Marvel star was reportedly not happy with how his life was going during his marriage with Faris. The actor allegedly did not feel good about himself and thought of himself as inferior to his ex-wife.

The source further states that Schwarzenegger brought in a fresh change in Pratt’s life and he began to feel better as a person. They also claimed that Pratt was allegedly more laid back and comfortable with Schwarzenegger compared to Faris. The source told US Weekly,

Chris was very insecure about himself before he started dating Katherine. He never felt ‘good enough’ for Anna Faris, and then when their relationship started to go downward, he was angry and not liking who he was.

Katherine really changed all of that and Chris has a much healthier self-image now. He goes out with friends more and is overall just much happier. Chris is much more laid-back with Katherine and is so comfortable and happy.

Tensions seemed to have started between the ex-couple by 2013 when rumors started to spread about Pratt’s alleged infidelity (via Who.com). On her podcast Anna Faris Is Unqualified, Faris revealed that there were a lot of red flags within their marriage that “I ignored that I really shouldn’t have” (via Glamour). Nevertheless, they still co-parent their son Jack, who is now 11.

Chris Pratt has starred in the modern trilogy of the Jurassic World franchise. The upcoming fourth film is set to feature new characters and a new story, with Pratt not returning. Scarlett Johansson will lead the new film and Pratt had a fun yet important advice for the Marvel star while talking to Collider.

Pratt stated that Johansson would be acting for the most part with things that aren’t there (the dinosaurs). Additionally, he told the actress to have a good time shooting the film and would be the first in line to see it. The Tomorrow War star said,

Man, just enjoy it… She already knows that. But if she forced me to give her some advice, I would say, understand that it’s pretty embarrassing to act opposite things that aren’t there, and have fun, enjoy it, and let me know if you have any questions. I’ll be first in line to see the movie.

Pratt recently voiced Garfield in The Garfield Movie which was a hit at the box office. The upcoming Jurassic World film will also star Jonathan Bailey, Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, Rupert Friend, Mahershala Ali, Luna Blaise, and David Iacono.
