Chris Pratt, the star of the box office record- breaking film Jurassic World, credits his successful career to God’s blessing.
The 35-year-old actor, who is married to actress Anna Faris, with whom he has a two-year-old son, Jack, has attributed his sudden recent career success to divine intervention.
“I’m definitely very favoured by God and fate,” he said.
“It feels just like that. I believe that it is. Things like that happen a lot. It feels like that happens a lot.”
The rising star, who found fame with the Guardians of the Galaxy film last year, is known for being rooted to his Christian faith and devoted to his family.
He told ABC News that back in 2012 when his son was born nine weeks premature, he and his wife turned to God.
“We were scared for a long time. We prayed a lot,” he said.
“It restored my faith in God, not that it needed to be restored, but it really redefined it,” the actor added. “The baby was so beautiful to us, and I look back at the photos of him and it must have been jarring for other people to come in and see him, but to us he was so beautiful and perfect.”
