Glen Powell says Chris Pratt’s “Guardians of the Galaxy” casting allowed Hollywood leading men to become “sillier” and not just “brooding” like Christian Bale and Robert Pattinson. It opened the door for Powell to become a movie star.

“I remember when Chris Pratt broke out in ‘Guardians of the Galaxy,’” Powell said. “There’s no doubt it really helped — not being brooding or dark. Like, I’m not Christian Bale. Christian Bale has a gravitas and a weight, and Pattinson had his thing. And when Pratt kind of appeared on the scene where he was doing things that were a little more silly and buoyant, that’s where I feel most at home. And that’s where I feel like I had a gear that is a necessary flavor in terms of Hollywood, and not a gear that a lot of guys can play.”
