Chris Pratt, known for his role as Star-Lord in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, recently hinted at the possibility of joining the DC Universe. During a visit to the set of Superman: Legacy with director James Gunn, Pratt mentioned that there is a chance he could make the franchise leap. However, he remained vague about which character he would like to play, leaving the decision up to the fans and directors like Gunn.
When asked directly if he would join the competing franchise, Pratt expressed enthusiasm, stating that if it aligned with his schedule and made sense, he would love the opportunity. Despite his love for playing Star-Lord, Pratt expressed gratitude for any consideration in other roles within the superhero genre.
Pratt made his MCU debut as Peter Quill (Star-Lord) in 2014’s Guardians of the Galaxy, directed by James Gunn. The actor continued to portray the character in sequels and crossover films within the MCU. Since Gunn’s involvement with DC Studios in 2022, Pratt’s visit to the set of Superman: Legacy has sparked speculation about a potential collaboration between the actor and the DC Universe.
James Gunn, now directing Superman: Legacy, has expressed openness to casting MCU actors in the DC Universe, hinting at the possibility of a crossover between the two comic book worlds. With Gunn’s influence at DC Studios, the idea of a crossover seems more plausible. However, Gunn emphasized the need to establish DC’s direction before considering such a monumental collaboration.
While Chris Pratt’s visit to the set of Superman: Legacy has fueled speculation about his future in the DC Universe, the actor’s interest in exploring new opportunities within the superhero genre is evident. As fans eagerly await any official announcements regarding Pratt’s involvement with DC projects, the possibility of seeing the beloved actor in a new superhero role remains an exciting prospect.
