Guardians of the Galaxy star Chris Pratt has confirmed he’s signed up to appear in at least five more Marvel movies.
Fans are speculating that it means he is committed to at least two Guardians sequels, as well as spin-off projects where his character will appear with other Marvel characters, such as Avengers Infinity Wars.
Chris told GQ magazine: “I’m tied to doing three more, or five more, Guardians of the Galaxy or whatever it is, you know, two more Guardians plus another couple…”
When the men’s style bible interviewed Chris, he had just returned from a meeting with James Gunn in which the director ‘briefed’ Pratt on Guardians of the Galaxy 2 for the first time.
As it was an initial briefing, Gunn wouldn’t reveal many details of the plot to Pratt, because he can’t quite trusting his leading man with that big of a secret.
He said: “I got teary-eyed.”
“He’s so f**king smart and peculiar.
“He just knows me too well, not to tell me too much.”
Pratt is fast becoming a huge movie star, but he intends to put his career behind whatever his son needs from him.
Even if that means walking away from Marvel legend status to buy a ranch so that he can go bird hunting as often as he likes.
After some thought he confessed: “I think I would do it and then three months later I would be tired of bird hunting and I would be like ‘…Guardians Ten?'”
Guardians of the Galaxy 2 will hit cinemas May 5, 2017.
