Chris Pratt Inspires Fans: ‘I Never Stopped Believing’
There’s no doubt that Chris Pratt is capable of inspiring those around him. As proof, the Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 star posted a message to fans on his way to the Atlanta film set that starts out detailing the hard work he’s been putting in on the sci-fi sequel. The photo caption ends with words of encouragement, meant to give hope to those seeking to achieve their own dreams.
If that’s not enough, Anna Faris reveals that Chris is equally inspiring at home and she is more than happy to give her own insight into what makes Pratt such a special family man and lover.

Chris Pratt posted a picture for his Instagram followers that showed his car en route to the Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 set in Atlanta at 3:20 a.m., as the actor details in the caption just how many hours he’s put in, as if to document his dedication to the project. Estimating a 77 hour work day between Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 and Passengers, which also films in Atlanta, Chris begins his caption by talking about the hard work demanded by his art. From there, his comments reveal the struggles he endured, prior to achieving success.
“I am doing what I love. It doesn’t feel like work. Even though it is. I’m having fun. I’m overcome with joy and gratitude. I felt like posting this to say to anyone out there chasing your dream… Fifteen years ago I felt the same passion I feel today, but I had very little opportunity. I had to hustle hard and go hungry. I had to eat sardines and figure out how to get gas money. And I never had a plan B. I never stopped believing. Ever. Don’t give up. Apply constant pressure for as long as it takes. It will break before you do. Go get it.”
Needless to say, Pratt’s Instagram followers took his words to heart and it probably won’t be long before the memes start to flood social networking sites. Even with a three day “work day” that has kept Pratt jumping from one set to the other, the actor still seems grateful for all that he’s achieved and for the opportunity to keep making films. In the end, that seems to be the message. If one is to spend more hours devoted to a profession than the time spent at home, it should definitely be for something one loves to do.

Anna Faris and Chris Pratt are just one of many Hollywood couples, but, for them, marriage has been both tricky to maintain and well worth the effort. Faris reveals that her relationship with Pratt has been tricky in that their film and television shooting schedules keeps them apart more often than not and it’s up to them to make that work. Anna says that the key is to make time for each other, when their schedules do leave time for them to be together.
Ms. Faris says that they love to do normal things as a family. Chris carries son Jack, as the family hikes along nature trails. They also like to go to zoos, aquariums, etc., but most of their free time is spent relaxing at home. The Mom actress says it’s been hard to find time together recently, because she’s on set in Los Angeles, while Chris has been filming in Georgia.
“We spend a lot of time at home building fires and just cooking and just being together. Just enjoying the simple times too,” Ms. Faris says.
Mom, starring Anna Faris, Allison Janney, and Blake Garrett Rosenthal, airs Thursday nights on CBS.
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, starring Pratt, Dave Bautista, Zoe Saldana, Vin Diesel, and Bradley Cooper, is scheduled for a May 5, 2017 theatrical release.
