Chris Pratt Joins The OC!!!!!!

[Buffyboy323]

Just read this on tv guide. com.
Chris Pratt — aka Bright Abbot— Will have a multi-episode arc this season. He'll play Che, an environmentalist that Summer (Rachel Bilson) befriends while away at college. Unfortunately, we have to wait a few months before we see Pratt in action. His first air date coincides with the show's fourth-season premiere on Nov. 2

Her's some of his interview:

Ausiello: How does he meet Summer?
Pratt: We come into the season having already established some sort of friendship. They go to school together and Summer has, as you'll see, changed from her original personality. She's less O.C. and more into the environment. You're going to see "Greenpeace Summer."

Ausiello: Are you and Summer romantically involved when the season starts?
Pratt: No, no, no. I don't think this is a love triangle. Summer has no interest in the Che character, from what I've read so far. There's probably going to be that imminent threat looming, but she's pretty clear about not liking him in that way. I think she's just clinging to something different from where she came from, because she left the O.C. under such tragic circumstances, losing her friend and all that stuff. She's trying to find an identity outside of who she really is, and I think she just happened to cling on to this left-of-center character.

Ausiello: How many episodes are you doing?
Pratt: I think I'm doing six episodes
Ausiello: How's everything?
Chris Pratt: Everything is very well, thank you. I'm out in New Mexico of all places.

Ausiello: What are you doing in New Mexico?
Pratt: Visiting my lady. She's out here working on a movie, so I just came out to give my moral support and play some golf.

Ausiello: Is this lady's name Emily VanCamp?
Pratt: Yes!

Ausiello: How's she doing?
Pratt: She's doing really well. She's working her butt off out there, but she's happy and challenged.

Ausiello: What movie is it?
Pratt: I believe the working title is Carriers, but it was the Untitled Pastor Brothers Project. It's an end of the world thriller-type thing. It's pretty cool.

Ausiello: I have to ask: Do fans ever come up to you and Emily and go, "No! You guys can't date — you play brother and sister!"
Pratt: (Laughs) Yeah, we've pretty much gotten used to the response of, "Eww, that's weird. That's creepy." The people who know us are happy, and probably expected it to happen eventually. But yeah, every once in a while we get that one person that's like, "That's really creepy. You just kissed your sister."

Ausiello: Did you two think it was weird in the beginning?
Pratt: We thought it was weird for [first] six months, but it had more to do with just trying to hide our relationship from the set. I don't know why, and looking back on it, it was foolish. But we were trying to stay secretive and didn't want it to get out there. It never really weirded us out that we played brother and sister, because, you know, it's all fiction.

Ausiello: You mean you're not really brother and sister?
Pratt: (Laughs) In real life we're actually not! We tried to hide it from everyone that wasn't dear and close to us, and then eventually it just felt very good to kind of just come out with our relationship. "Ah, f--k it. We're together. We love each other, and if you don't like it, you can kiss our *** — our collective brother and sister kissin' ***."

Ausiello: Why did you feel you had to keep it a secret?
Pratt: Obviously, they can never tell you not to date anybody on set. But it's always looked at as being a bit, "You should be a little apprehensive about getting involved with somebody that you work with." But we weren't apprehensive at all. We just said, "F--k it. Let's just go for it, because it's important to us." But, that being said, other people may have had doubts or suspicions about us being able to last and this and that. Basically, once we get on set, we really just kind of became our characters and left our relationship behind. We would sneak a kiss here and there, but we would try and stay as professional as possible so no one would get uncomfortable. We certainly would never bring any arguments to the set or anything like that.

Ausiello: Any wedding bells in your future?
Pratt: Man... I think I'd have to... Um... (Laughs) I've never been able to… Ah, shoot, I don't know how to say this without... um... I think Emily and I are very much in love and often people who are very much in love get married. But we're both still young so who knows?
