What Happened to Chris Pratt?

Christopher Michael Pratt, widely known as Chris Pratt, has solidified his status as one of Hollywood's most bankable stars, transitioning from beloved television roles to leading blockbuster film franchises. His career trajectory saw a significant boost with his breakout role as Andy Dwyer in NBC's 'Parks and Recreation' (2009-2015), which paved the way for his entry into major action and sci-fi films.

Pratt achieved global recognition by portraying Peter Quill/Star-Lord in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, starting with 'Guardians of the Galaxy' in 2014, and as Owen Grady in the 'Jurassic World' franchise, beginning in 2015. These roles established him as a leading man capable of headlining major tentpole productions, contributing to his films grossing over $14.1 billion worldwide. His involvement in these successful franchises, including 'Avengers: Infinity War' (2018), 'Avengers: Endgame' (2019), and 'Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3' (2023), has kept him in the public eye and cemented his position as a top earner in the industry.

In recent years, Pratt has diversified his portfolio with significant voice acting roles, notably as Mario in the highly successful 'The Super Mario Bros. Movie' (2023), which grossed over $1.36 billion worldwide. He continued this trend by voicing Garfield in 'The Garfield Movie,' released theatrically in May 2024, which, despite mixed reviews, was a box office success, grossing $244.8 million worldwide against a $60 million budget. The film later became available on VOD in July 2024.

Pratt also ventured into high-budget streaming and theatrical releases. In March 2025, he starred alongside Millie Bobby Brown in 'The Electric State' on Netflix. Despite a reported budget of up to $320 million, the film received negative reviews from critics, with some calling it a disappointment, though it garnered over 158 million hours viewed on Netflix. In January 2026, his sci-fi thriller 'Mercy' was released theatrically by Amazon MGM Studios. This film also faced negative critical reception and did not break even at the box office, grossing $54.3 million against a $60 million budget.

Beyond his acting career, Pratt's personal life has also been in the spotlight. He married Katherine Schwarzenegger in 2019, and they have expanded their family significantly. They welcomed their first daughter, Lyla Maria, in August 2020, followed by their second daughter, Eloise Christina, in May 2022. In November 2024, they announced the birth of their son, Ford Fitzgerald Schwarzenegger Pratt, making Pratt a father of four. He has also faced occasional public scrutiny, including backlash in 2019 regarding his association with a church perceived as anti-LGBTQ+, which he denied, and a social media post in September 2025 where he prayed for Charlie Kirk, drawing mixed reactions.

As of March 2026, Chris Pratt remains highly active. He is slated to star in and produce 'Way of the Warrior Kid,' released in December 2025, and will reprise his role as James Reece in 'The Terminal List' Season 2, confirmed for a 2026 release on Prime Video. He is also set to voice Mario again in 'The Super Mario Galaxy Movie,' scheduled for April 2026. His net worth is estimated to be around $100 million.
