During the Los Angeles red carpet premiere of his new animated film The Garfield Movie on Sunday, May 19, Chris Pratt expressed his desire to collaborate with his wife, Katherine Schwarzenegger, onscreen, believing she would excel in acting alongside him.
“I’ve asked her. I think she could be great,” Pratt revealed to People, emphasizing her talent as an actress. Despite his encouragement, Pratt acknowledged potential challenges, noting Schwarzenegger’s tendency to laugh during performances.
“When she’s doing impressions and I’m like, ‘You’re really good’, and she’s like, ‘No way. I could never do it. I would laugh too much’,” he explained, humorously suggesting she might disrupt takes with laughter.
Reflecting on the family-friendly nature of The Garfield Movie, Pratt anticipated it would be the first film his young daughters would watch him in, given its suitability for all ages.
“A movie like Garfield, it’s truly safe for all ages, and my daughters are both very young. My son’s 11, so he’s seen a lot of the things that I’m in, but my girls have never seen anything I’ve been in, so this will probably be the first thing that they see,” he shared.
Released by Columbia Pictures through Sony Pictures Releasing on May 24, 2024, The Garfield Movie features Pratt as the voice of Garfield, embarking on a high-stakes adventure alongside other notable voices such as Hannah Waddingham, Snoop Dogg, and Cecily Strong. In the film, Garfield reunites with his long-lost father, a street cat named Vic, leading to an unexpected journey.
