He explained further that these emotions weren’t present simply because they were now family. Instead, it’s because The Terminator actor has inspired him his entire life.

Pratt further revealed that he was a fan of his films, Predator and The Terminator, saying,

“So for him to give me props for going out and being on the marquee is really kind of mind-blowing.

 But then on another level, just being somebody who grew up loving his movies, the big action hero – I dreamed of being Commando and dreamed of being the soldier from Predator, and I loved Terminator.”

On April 29, 2023, Schwarzenegger tweeted his appreciation for Pratt’s most recent Marvel movie. He was impressed with Pratt’s performance and pleased with him.

The film was seen by other people besides his father-in-law, though. Even actor Patrick Schwarzenegger, Pratt’s eldest brother-in-law, also has expressed his support.

The Guardians of the Galaxy trilogy’s final chapter, directed by James Gunn has already been released in theaters on May 5.

Arnold Schwarzenegger’s eldest son got to see the eagerly anticipated Marvel film at one of the film’s screenings.

The 29-year-old, however, wasn’t prepared for the wave of emotions that followed the screening.

Chris Pratt’s The Terminal List co-star posted about his experience with the film on Twitter.

In addition to writing a glowing review for the James Gunn movie, Patrick Schwarzenegger proudly congratulated his brother-in-law.

In fact, renowned filmmakers like Martin Scorsese and James Cameron have expressed their disapproval of the repetitive use of the once-unique trope in the film.

Therefore, moviegoers have a general idea of what to expect from a high-profile Hollywood superhero film.

However, James Gunn’s final Guardians of the Galaxy film exceeded Patrick Schwarzenegger’s hopes and expectations, as he tweeted:

The May 5 release of GOTG Vol. 3, which stars Chris Pratt as Starlord, will reportedly send MCU fans on an emotional roller coaster, according to The Benchwarmers actor.

Well, the words of encouragement from the Schwarzeneggers are undoubtedly comforting and heartwarming as Pratt waits to see how his film does on a global scale.

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is premiering in theaters on May 5, 2023.
