Who doesn't adore Chris Pratt? Since his break out role in "Guardians of the Galaxy" and his newly improved physique, everyone can't seem to get enough of the 35-year old actor. Many doors of opportunities have opened for him, including films with huge budget such as "Jurassic World,"  Two more series of the "Guardians of the Galaxy" franchise, being featured in several magazine covers, among others.

The latest magazine to feature the gorgeous Pratt is The Hollywood Reporter in their January 2015 issue, alongside director James Gunn. Both gentlemen looked dapper in their suit, reading none other than "Guardians of the Galaxy" comic books in bed. Too cute, we must say!

The tandem made it to Hollywood Reporter's "Rule Breakers of 2014" list, which is well-deserved, considering the overwhelming success of the "Guardians of the Galaxy." Actor Pratt and Director Gunn opened up about the said film and how both were apprehensive at some point if it will actually be a hit, considering it is an unconventional Marvel movie. "Every rule said, 'You don't make a movie with a talking tree,' 'You don't spend this much money on a raccoon with a gun,' " Pratt revealed to the Reporter. "For me, I was like, 'Oh, so this movie is going to bomb. Done. This is the end of my career.'"

Meanwhile, Director Gunn, who co-wrote the screenplay, was battling internally as he was working on the script. "They needed the humor and the fun -- they just didn't know it yet," Gunn said. "But there were those nights at 3 a.m. when I would wake up and be like, 'Oh my God, what am I doing? If this goes wrong, my life is screwed. I'll be a pariah.' "

Well, we all know the story. Guardians of the Galaxy became the biggest box office hit of 2014 according to Variety. The movie earned an overwhelming $332.5 million in US theaters when it opened last August. Moreover, when it released its Blu-ray disc and DVD last December 9, it quickly captured the top spot on both the " Nielsen tracks total disc sales, Blu-ray disc and DVD combined- as well as Nielsen's dedicated Blu-ray chart." 2014 is totally the year of Chris Pratt, don't you agree?
