Was Chris Pratt’s iconic Jurassic Park knife custom made? This is what the star has to say

Jurassic World Dominion brought the original Jurassic World trilogy to an end in 2022. After three thrilling action films, the franchise’s lead actor, Chris Pratt, left fans wanting more. Pratt is ready to return, even if his future with the dinosaurs is still uncertain. In 2014, Pratt’s career soared after he portrayed Peter Quill in Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy. The following year, he starred in the first Jurassic World film, which made him synonymous with dinosaurs.

Chris Pratt talks about the knife

Pratt, who once worked as a waiter, rose to stardom by reprising his role in three Jurassic World films. His portrayal of Owen Grady in the Guardians of the Galaxy and Jurassic World series showcased his impressive physique. Avenshine’s knives, in particular, were used by Pratt throughout the series starting in 2015. In Jurassic World Dominion, Pratt’s character used the knife to stab a dinosaur, a scene highlighted in a 2022 Super Bowl commercial.

“It was really cool in the last movie. Since 2015, people have been joking, ‘When is he going to fight a dinosaur with this?’ Well, in the last movie, he stabs a dinosaur. Yeah, that was pretty cool,” said Steve Auvenshine.

During a WIRED interview, Pratt was asked about the knife he used in Jurassic World. He was thrilled that someone asked him about it, saying, “It was a custom-made knife and it was so badass.” He also mentioned that he had stolen the knife and now keeps it next to his bed.

Chris Pratt talks about his return for “Jurassic World 4”

Chris Pratt recently hinted at a possible comeback in the popular dinosaur franchise. Although his involvement in the upcoming Jurassic World 4 remains uncertain, Pratt has not ruled out future appearances.

In an interview with CBR, Pratt gave an ambiguous answer when asked about his participation in the new film. Jurassic World 4 promises to introduce new characters and take the series in a new direction. Despite these changes, Pratt, known for his roles in the previous three installments, seems to maintain a connection to the franchise’s storyline. He mentioned:

“Hey, never say never. Maybe. Maybe I’ll come back. Maybe not. You’ll just have to tune in to find out. I know I’ll be first in line whether I’m in or not.”

Earlier this year, The Hollywood Reporter revealed that the studio is deeply involved in developing an all-new Jurassic World film, with David Koepp once again serving as a screenwriter. Koepp is known for writing the original 1993 Jurassic Park screenplay, which was directed by Steven Spielberg.

Although the next Jurassic World film will feature an all-star cast including Scarlett Johansson and John Bailey, Glen Powell, known for his roles in Top Gun: Maverick and Anyone But You, recently announced that he turned down an offer to star in the film, saying he was unsuitable for the role.
