Chris Pratt, Lake Stevens’ most famous (and perhaps favorite) son, is set to star in another major blockbuster sequel next year.
Ahead of the “Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom” trailer release, he took to his much-beloved Twitter account for a live Q&A session leading up to its premiere during Thursday Night Football.
Im taking questions while I wait for the launch of the #JurassicWorld #FallenKingdom trailer tonight during the football game. Any takers?

As you’d imagine, the Twitterverse questions ranged from inane to non-question admissions of undying love.
I just noticed you just now. Thanks! 🙏♥️ https://t.co/kaMLIrdtk4

Opening weekend of the original. “Date night” with my childhood friend Jesse. Our parents sat behind us. https://t.co/R2tYfLCQYg

Yes! Chickens evolved from egg laying raptors. So… Whate came first? The chicken or the egg? We can finally say unequivocally the egg came before the chicken!!! https://t.co/Z1S5qlb2z9

We tried to get a little hometown shoutout, to no avail.
Favorite place to eat in @LakeStevensWA?

But Pratt did shoutout his hometown football team, just a handful of days removed from raising the 12th Man flag during the Philadelphia Eagles-Seattle Seahawks tilt.
As a seahawks fan, I hope somehow they both lose tonight. https://t.co/3KDZMj70Sw

Somehow, the questions veered into people seeking medical advice and questioning his physical capabilities.
Yes. I have it right now. Im a big proponent of “ignore it” but also chiropractic has worked for me and massage. https://t.co/WAggFSYIpA

Well let’s see, I’m about 6’3” and when I jump my highest I can’t quite touch the net of a basketball hoop. So, 4” vertical? https://t.co/a72s3MHhOK

It’s kind of understandable, given his reputation for being physical with his stunts on set.
Yeah. I got real beat up on this one. Jacked up both elbows and bruised my heal pretty good. Also, burnt my eyeballs. https://t.co/xFL2GQbmxJ

The avid outdoorsman gave a big thumbs up to someone displaying their recent hunting haul.
I like it all but it’s hard to beat a good elk hunt. Congrats on your deer!👍🏼 https://t.co/yhtUcJAV1A

He also tossed some bait out for a possible Pratt/Les Stroud teamup for “Survivorman.”
I’m living my dream. Too many favorite things! First: platform for His work.🙏♥️ Not to mention financial freedom, recognition and creative fulfillment. If I could be on any show probably something with @reallesstroud https://t.co/k69uRSl655

And any Pratt Q&A wouldn’t be complete without a callback to the “Parks & Rec” goofball that made him a star.
He’s in a cave… training. https://t.co/JqcB1s9Op9

Reminiscent of his “Parks & Rec” character, Andy Dwyer, Pratt was upbeat and positive when asked how life is going. To quote another “Jurassic Park” character, “Life finds a way.”
Life is beautiful!
It always “finds a way”
Thanks for this Q&A. Sorry if I didn’t get to you. Be sure to catch the trailer tonight!!! https://t.co/3P7c7UdIm9
