“When she said Chris Evans, my heart sank,” Chris told the interviewer. However, he also said Katherine rescued his heart when she said his name. Pratt couldn’t believe it was real and had no idea such a clip existed. He suggested Hollywood Access had made the clip just to play a prank on him. 

Even though he didn’t expect to see his then-future wife choose Chris Evans before choosing him, Pratt didn’t forget to shout out Katherine’s book. The Guardians of the Galaxy star closed the interview with a clever line. He told everyone with kids to check out Katherine’s book “Maverick and Me”. Pratt suggested maybe people could pick up the book after watching his film in theatres.
