Chris Pratt Set to Romance Real-Life Wife Anna Faris With ‘Mom’ Guest Role
Chris Pratt may be busy filming sequels to his mega-hits “Guardians of the Galaxy” and “Jurassic World,” but the actor is making some time to woo his real-life wife Anna Faris in an episode of “Mom.”
Entertainment Weekly reports that the “Parks and Recreation” alum will be guest starring in an upcoming Season 4 episode of the CBS comedy. The episode will air early 2017 and star Pratt as Nick, a desirable horseback riding instructor who Christy (Faris) falls for. However, she might find it hard to seduce the hunk, as he’s Marjorie’s (Mimi Kennedy) nephew and strictly off-limits.
“So excited for us to act together again,” Faris wrote on Twitter, with Pratt replying, “Can’t wait to work with you again honey!!!”
The husband-and-wife duo, who married in 2009, previously acted together in “What’s Your Number?,” 2011’s film “Take Me Home Tonight” and in 2013’s “Movie 43.”
Season 4 of “Mom” will also feature a mini “The West Wing” reunion. Bradley Whitford was recently cast as an old friend of Adam (William Fichtner), the current boyfriend of Allison Janney’s character Bonnie.
Pratt was last seen in the Antoine Fuqua’s “The Magnificent Seven” and will next be seen opposite Jennifer Lawrence in “Passengers,” out December 21. The first trailer for “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2” was released this past week, which featured the actor reprising his role of Star Lord.
“Mom” returns Thursday, October 27, at 9 p.m. on CBS.
