How Chris Pratt went from homeless waiter at Bubba Gump shrimp to $10 million ‘Jurassic World’ star:
Chris Pratt, 39, pulled in a reported $10 million payday for his latest starring role in Universal Pictures'"Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom," the dinosaur blockbuster that hits theaters in North America on Friday.
Pratt's lucrative roles in the"Jurassic World" franchise are the latest achievements in an acting career that's been on a meteoric trajectory in recent years. The actor went from a supporting comedic role on the NBC sitcom"Parks and Recreation" to landing leading roles in blockbusters like Warner Bros.'s"The Lego Movie" and Walt Disney's"Guardians of the Galaxy" in 2014.
Born in Minnesota but raised in Washington, Pratt began taking some community college acting classes after graduating from high school in 1997, but he left college after less than a semester.When he was 19, Pratt moved to Hawaii after a friend offered to buy him a one-way ticket. There, Pratt basically became homeless, living in a van by the beach while he worked a variety of minimum-wage jobs.
"I was like, 'You're in the movies, right? I always wanted to be in the movies,'" Pratt told Entertainment Weekly about the encounter with Chong."She said, 'You're cute. Do you act?' I was like, f--- it, 'Goddamn right I act! Put me in a movie!'" Pratt was making less than $30 per day at the Beverly Hills restaurant and he told Norton that he'd try to save money on food by eating off of customers' plates."I'd been busted so many times eating off people's plates," Pratt admitted to Norton.
