Chris Pratt will soon be calling Arnold Schwarzenegger his father-in-law, but the action-movie icon has had some real appreciation for the Jurassic World star for years.


As seen in a tweet Schwarzenegger posted back in June 2015, the Terminator actor gushed over Pratt while posting a snapshot of the autograph wall from the set of The Late Late Show With James Corden.

In the pic, Pratt’s autograph can be seen alongside Schwarzenegger’s, and the 39-year-old heartthrob added the excited notation, “Right next to FRIGGIN’ Arnold!” with an arrow pointed at the former California governor’s signature.

The talk show host snapped a pic of the star’s exuberant scribble and posted it to Twitter, which Schwarzenegger retweeted, adding, “I’m right next to friggin’ CHRIS PRATT.

Congrats on the monster opening weekend, @prattprattpratt. You deserve it,” referring to Jurassic World’s record-breaking $208.8 million bow.

For her part, Faris has been very supportive of Pratt’s new relationship, and revealed on her podcast,  Anna Faris Is Unqualified, that Pratt texted her shortly after proposing.

“Chris texted me this morning and he was like, ‘I proposed to Katherine last night,’” Faris, 42, shared. “And I was like, ‘Ah, that’s amazing.’ I texted him back like, ‘I just wanted to remind you I’m an ordained minister.’”

“I’m so happy for them,” she added. “I knew that it was going to happen, and I love her and I love him and I’m just so happy that they found each other.”
