Washington [USA], After his recent meeting with director James Gunn on the set of 'Superman: Legacy', actor Chris Pratt stated that "there is always a possibility" that he will join the DCU, but he remained silent about who "I'd like to play," reported Deadline.
"I just have to let the fans and people like James decide," Pratt said in an interview. "I'm not exactly sure. I'm really not sure," he added.
When asked directly if he would join the competing franchise, Pratt didn't hesitate to declare, "Yes, of course."
"If it could fit into my schedule and make sense, I would love it," he continued. "Of course I love playing Star-Lord, and I hope there's a chance I can come back. I feel very blessed to be able to do any of that, to be considered for all of that. If it's right and the fans would love to do it , I would be more than happy to do it."
His comments come after Gunn shared a photo of Pratt on the set of Superman: Legacy earlier this month. "Always nice to have friends visit the set," she captioned the post.
Pratt previously appeared in the MCU as Peter Quill (aka Star-Lord) in Gunn's 2014 film, Guardians of the Galaxy. They reunited for the 2017 and 2023 sequels, as well as Avengers: Infinity War (2018) and Endgame (2019).
Since he took over DC Studios with Peter Safran in 2022, Gunn has been hard at work directing Superman: Legacy, which will launch a new DC Multiverse. The cast includes David Corenswet as the eponymous Man of Steel, Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor and Skyler Gisondo as Jimmy Olsen.
After stating that he's open to casting MCU actors for his next DCU work, Gunn said that a crossover between the two comic book worlds is "more likely now that I'm in charge," adding, "However, it's many years away." for that. I think we first need to establish what we're doing at DC. I'd be lying if I said we haven't discussed it, but all the discussions have been very, very light and fun," Deadline reported.
