When actors marry actors, it’s tough to balance schedules and family time. Chris Pratt understands this stress first-hand after spending more than 14 months on the road while filming three consecutive films.
During an interview with Parade, the Parks & Recreation actor said that he is taking six months off from acting to spend more time with his family.
“I’ve been on the road for 14 months—I did three movies back to back to back—so I’m taking six months off,” the 37-year-old actor told the publication.
Pratt is married to actress Anna Faris and the pair share three-year-old son, Jack.
Pratt continued that he plans to take Jack to the beach and enjoy family vacations.
“I’m taking Jack to Jack’s Beach—which is what we named the little stretch of beach on an island up on the San Juan Islands where we got a place,” he said.
“We’re going to go back to the fort we built about a month and a half ago when we went for a short visit and see if that’s still there. If not, we’re going to build it again.”
