James Gunn Confirms Talks With Chris Pratt About Role In DC Universe

Is Chris Pratt coming to the DC Universe?

Chris Pratt is on his way to the DC Universe! DC Studios co-head James Gunn confirms that he’s been in talks with the Marvel actor to join his upcoming reboot.

Ever since it was announced that James Gunn would be helming a reboot of the DC Universe (along with veteran producer Peter Safran), the internet assumed that the cast of Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy would be following him in the transition. After all, actors such as Sean Gunn and Maria Bakalova have already followed him over, so why not Chis Pratt and Vin Diesel?

A number of Marvel stars have already expressed their interest in joining the new DC Universe. Dave Bautista has been very vocal about wanting to play a role in the reboot, though the actor admits that they haven’t found the perfect part for him. Pom Klementieff revealed that she’s spoken to James Gunn about a specific character. And following Chris Pratt’s visit to the Superman set, DC fans believe he might be in a similar boat!

Is Chris Pratt Joining The DC Universe?

James Gunn was asked about these recent rumors of Chris Pratt being in talks to join the DC Universe. In response, the director confirmed that he talks with the actor about joining the reboot all the time. Not because there’s a specific role that Pratt might be playing in a future project, but because the two are close friends due to their time working together at Marvel Studios.

This hasn’t meant fans have quieted in their speculation about who Chris Pratt could play in the DC Universe reboot. The predominant theory is that James Gunn might tap his former Marvel star to play Booster Gold in his upcoming series. However, every name from Hal Jordan to Shazam have been tossed around, leaving any real rumors lost in a sea of muck.
