Chris Pratt ‘open to joining’ James Gunn’s DCU – Film News | Film-News.co.uk

Chris Pratt wants to work with his “Guardians of the Galaxy” director James Gunn again for a DC Universe film.

Pratt, who was a key member of the rival Marvel Cinematic Universe as Peter Quill/Star-Lord, recently visited Gunn on the set of Superman: Legacy – the film that will put into action Gunn’s plans to revitalize DC’s own superhero franchises.

When asked by TMZ.com if he could work with Gunn again on a DC film, Pratt said, “The possibility is always there,” adding, “I have to leave that to the fans and people like James.”

However, when asked, he said, “Yes, of course,” he would accept a role at DC – if it fits with his other commitments at Marvel or other projects.

“If it fit my schedule and made sense, I would love it,” he explained. “Obviously, I love playing Star-Lord, and hopefully there’s a chance it could happen again. I just feel so blessed to be able to do all of this, to be considered for all of this. If it’s right and the fans would love it, I would be more than happy to do it.”

Pratt has been a regular in the MCU for a decade, but his character Quill’s story doesn’t seem to end until the third Guardians of the Galaxy film in 2023.

The 44-year-old actor also recently announced that he is expecting his third child with his wife Katherine Schwarzenegger.

Gunn has taken over as head of DC Studios and is working on his Superman film. David Corenswet will play the title hero, Rachel Brosnahan will take on the role of Lois Lane and Nicholas Hoult will play Lex Luthor.
