Pratt plays the animal behaviourist across Jurassic World, Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom and Jurassic World Dominion. The part is written as a competent outdoorsman, and what he brings to it is timing: the character deflects with jokes, which keeps a very large film human at its centre.
He came from American television comedy, where he spent years in an ensemble playing an amiable idiot, and that improvisational background remains audible in how he handles dialogue. His move into action leads was rapid and involved substantial physical preparation, and he has since worked mostly at blockbuster scale, in franchises across live action and animation.
Recurring subjects: reluctant leadership, humour used to defuse danger, and characters whose confidence is partly a performance. He plays sincerity in short unguarded moments between jokes, and he is comfortable being the least serious person in a scene without losing authority in it, which is a harder balance than it looks.
His franchise roles are among the highest grossing of the past decade, and his casting is a common example of a comic television actor being successfully repositioned as an action lead, a transition that studios have attempted repeatedly since. His voice work in animation has also reached very large audiences.
For viewers who want blockbusters with a light touch. Suited to anyone approaching the dinosaur series, and to those curious about the television comedy that preceded the action career.
