The source further states that Schwarzenegger has brought a fresh change to Pratt’s life and he feels better as a person. They also claimed that Pratt was more relaxed and content with Schwarzenegger compared to Faris. The source told US Weekly:

Chris was very insecure before he started dating Katherine. He never felt “good enough” for Anna Faris, and when their relationship ended, he was angry and disliked himself.

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

Tensions between the ex-couple seemed to have started as early as 2013, when rumors of Pratt’s alleged infidelity began to surface (via Who.com).

Chris Pratt played the lead role in the modern trilogy of Jurassic World Franchise. The upcoming fourth film is set to feature new characters and a new story, and Pratt will not return. Scarlett Johansson will play the lead role in the new film, and Pratt had some funny but important advice for the Marvel star when speaking to Collider.

Pratt explained that Johansson would be playing mostly with things that don’t exist (the dinosaurs), and he also wished the actress a lot of fun making the film and that she would be first in line to see it. The War of Tomorrow Stern said,

Man, just enjoy it… She already knows that. But if she forced me to give her advice, I would say understand that it’s pretty embarrassing to play things that don’t exist 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 lent his voice to 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.

The highly anticipated film will be released in theaters on July 2, 2025.
