4. He Really Needs a Breakout

Aside from his role in Parks and Recreation, Chris Pratt really hasn€™t had a role easily identifiable by people who aren€™t film buffs. Not a lot of people saw The Five-Year Engagement, and Pratt isn€™t very well known for his roles in Zero Dark Thirty and Moneyball. Chris Pratt needs that one huge movie to bump him up to the A-list. This year€™s January present Movie 43 didn€™t do anything for Pratt, and the upcoming The Delivery Man is going to be more of a Vince Vaughn vehicle. Pratt needs a movie that hits all the screens with him on those screens for most of it, and a movie that€™s going to be as good as The Guardians of the Galaxy is a perfect candidate.
