Chris Pratt spilled a cheeky confession at his “The Electric Slate” premiere, admitting he ogled brother-in-law Patrick Schwarzenegger’s nude scene in “The White Lotus.” The “Guardians of the Galaxy” star, 45, told E! News he couldn’t help but peek at Patrick’s manhood. He quipped he’s not blood-related, so it’s fair game, sparking laughs.
Pratt’s Playful Praise
Pratt caught Patrick, 31, in episode one of “The White Lotus” Season 3, airing on HBO. He praised his brother-in-law’s acting chops, calling him a standout beyond his physique. Patrick’s character, Saxon Ratliff, strips down in a hotel room, baring his backside to viewers.
The scene uses a sink faucet to hide the front, but Pratt’s eyes wandered anyway. He’s married to Patrick’s sister, Katherine Schwarzenegger, tying the family knot. For Pratt, it’s all fun—he lauded Patrick’s shift from real-life charm to on-screen creep.
Family Weighs In
Patrick’s parents, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver, also chimed in on his bold moment. Arnold, at the Bangkok premiere on Feb. 14, said it’s no shock—Patrick takes after him. Shriver, more reserved, told PEOPLE she focused on his face, dodging the steamy bits.
Patrick plays a flirty, egotistical alpha male vacationing in Thailand with his rich family. His role oozes trouble, clashing with siblings and eyeing women oddly. For now, Pratt’s jest steals the spotlight, fans say.
