Chris Pratt hints at bidding adieu to MCU and Guardians of the Galaxy franchise, says ‘the franchises are over’

Chris Pratt has played a variety of characters ever since he first started, but a majority of the audience still associates him with Peter Quill, also known as his alias Star Lord in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The Hollywood star has headlined the two Guardians of the Galaxy movies as well as the Avengers. However, the actor has now hinted at bidding goodbye to the MCU soon. Interestingly, Chris Hemsworth also recently said that it could be the end of the road for his MCU character.

Pratt is set to play his beloved character Star Lord in the much-awaited Thor: Love and Thunder film, which is set to hit cinemas in India on Thursday, July 7. He will also be seen in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. The final installment in the trilogy is due in May 2023. However, after that, Pratt told a publication that he does not know what is in store for his character in the MCU.


“I don’t actually know what’s gonna come next. You asked whether or not I’m cognizantly, intentionally turning a page. The page is turning. Whether I want to or not. Because the franchises are over.”

He went on to add, “You want to be conscious and put a lot of effort into experiencing the moment. Like, this is going away. I want to take it in. You can’t take it in any harder than just being present to it. So, I’m being present. The other day, Russell Wilson, the Seattle Seahawks quarterback, he got traded to Denver. He’s been with Seattle for about ten years. Which has been about the duration of this [Pratt's time with the Guardians of the Galaxy]. I was like, ‘Wait, hold on, what happened?’ The emotion around the last ten years sort of coming to an end. I was in the most embarrassing way, like, ‘My quarterback leaves, so I’m gonna cry.’ It’s hitting me in moments like that.”

In another interview, Pratt heaped praises on director James Gunn’s direction of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. He even called the film a “masterpiece.”

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is scheduled for its theatrical bow in the United States on May 5, 2023.

Shah Rukh Khan launches Aryan Khan’s Netflix debut "The BA***DS of Bollywood"

Bollywood’s King Khan, Shah Rukh Khan, just dropped a bombshell at Netflix’s Next on Netflix event in Mumbai. The megastar took the stage to announce his son Aryan Khan’s directorial debut, The Ba***ds of Bollywood, and the buzz is already through the roof. Produced under their banner, Red Chillies Entertainment, this series is set to pull back the curtain on the chaotic, glamorous, and often absurd world of Bollywood, with a hefty dose of humour and a no-holds-barred approach.

SRK, ever the charmer, couldn’t hide his pride as he spoke about Aryan stepping into the director’s chair. “If my kids get even half the love you’ve given me, it’ll be more than enough,” he told the crowd, his voice tinged with emotion. But true to form, he couldn’t resist cracking a joke. “People get offended by my jokes, so I stopped making them. I passed that legacy to Aryan and said, ‘Go make your father proud.’”

Neil Gaiman and Amanda Palmer hit with sexual assault and human trafficking lawsuit

Neil Gaiman, the celebrated author of The Sandman and American Gods, has been accused of sexual assault, rape, and human trafficking in a lawsuit filed by his former babysitter, Scarlett Pavlovich. The lawsuit, filed in federal court, also names Gaiman’s estranged wife, musician Amanda Palmer, alleging she knowingly enabled the abuse.

Pavlovich, who worked as a live-in nanny for the couple on Waiheke Island, New Zealand, claims Gaiman exploited her vulnerable financial and mental health situation. According to the lawsuit, Gaiman subjected her to months of violent sexual abuse, including repeated rape, choking, and physical assault. He allegedly referred to her as his “slave” and demanded she call him “master.” Pavlovich claims she endured the abuse out of fear of losing her job, housing, and promised career support.
