Men of the world, take note.
The dinosaur-fighting, cross-building[1], galaxy-guarding man of our dreams, Chris Pratt[2], took home the award for Best Action Performance at the MTV Movie Awards on Saturday. And in case Pratt hadn't proved to you that he was the sweetest guy in Hollywood, his shoutout to wife Anna Faris in his acceptance speech will surely do the trick.
After describing the honor as "a freakin' dream come true," Pratt went on to name-check all the action stars that have inspired him, including Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone, Jackie Chan and Harrison Ford. But the offscreen hero in his personal life is, of course, Faris, with whom he has a 3-year-old son, Jack.
"Our son was destined to be tough. But thanks to you, he will be smart, too," Pratt said in his speech, according to MTV[3].
Adorable, right?
Before the ceremony, Pratt made sure to ham it up on the red carpet, striking silly pose after silly pose, as fans cheered on.
Back in 2015, Pratt opened up to People about the key to a successful marriage[4] in Hollywood, besides adorable acceptance speeches.
"It's just as important, if not more important, to focus on your relationship with your partner because your children are going to leave one day [and] you have to maintain a relationship that's going to outlast your child's needs for you," he told the mag.
"I have the support of a strong partner who's been through this and understands it and whom I can share these experiences with," he added. "And we have a family that we're starting that's the focus of my attention."
Well, one thing's for sure, Pratt. You've certainly got our attention.
