Chris Pratt has his brother to thank for his acting career.
Pratt, 37, opened up about his road to Hollywood, revealing that it was his older brother Cully Pratt that first inspired him to start acting.
“One Christmas, he was in a play, a musical, and sang, and it knocked everyone’s socks off. My mom was crying. And I was like, ‘That’s what I want to do,’ ” he told Vanity Fair, in which he poses shirtless and immersed in a lake on the cover.
Pratt was especially close with his brother, competing alongside him on his high school wrestling team.
