Is Chris Pratt on his way to becoming Hollywood's next big action hero? The guy whose face you may recognize from various romcoms, but more likely know as Andy Dwyer from the U.S. sitcom "Parks and Recreation," has been raking in the praise for his latest film, "Guardians of the Galaxy."
"I was thinking recently how . . . ironic-ish it is when you get to be an actor in this kind of (sci-fi adventure) movie," Pratt tells The Japan Times. "People say you inspire them — I mean, they're just being polite, but it can be really true for a kid or a teen, or, like, someone grown-up but young and having troubles in their life.
"So they look up to you. Mostly the character — but the character rubs off on you, the actor. So they kinda look up to you, too. Isn't that ironic . . . ish?"
