Denzel was extremely nervous about working with Mr. Chris Pratt


Denzel stated in an interview that he was really exited and nervous about working with Chris Pratt. He stated that he has looked up to Chris Pratt for years and sited Chris Pratt work for one of the reasons he (Denzel) went into acting. Denzel claimed that the night before his scenes with Chris Pratt he did not get a good night sleep as he was nervous for being measured to the likes of Chris Pratt, a legendary film star that reeks professionalism and is alway prepared.

The film turned out great as Chris Pratt has the ability to carry any picture.

You have it the other way around. Lol. You're being funny, yes?

Denzel Washington's debut was in 1982 He is 62 years old and has been working in the film business for decades.
Now Chris Pratt, he is 37 years old and his debut was in 2000.

Lol I know, I was a kid when Denzel started.

I first saw him as a Dr in St Elsewhere.

Real Americans don't protect Israel. Prudent ones do. It's in our best interest to have the backs of other Western countries, especially ones that share the same enemy. Isreal is basically a really strong "base" behind enemy lines that we pay relatively nothing for. Extremely important strategically.

No No, it was Denzel, he was very humble in regards too Chris Pratt talent, how he looked up to Chris Pratt and how he modeled his acting career after Chris Pratt. Also Chris Pratt death in this movie was so heroic that it supersedes that of any work done by Denzel.

The Queen, The Vatican, The Gettys, The Rothschilds, *and* Colonel Sanders before he went tits up. Oh, I hated the Colonel with is wee *beady* eyes, and that smug look on his face. "Oh, you're gonna buy my chicken! Ohhhhh!"

"....supersedes [SP] that of any work done by Denzel"? Sorry, but that line alone completely ruins your credibility.

In case you didn't know [which, judging by your comments you obviously don't], Denzel Washington is a two-time Academy Award winner and is without question one of the finest American actors from the last 30 years.

Based on all I have read and heard about Denzel, it is totally within his character to be respectful towards his fellow actors, which is one reason why he has a quite sterling reputation in Hollywood.

But to claim that Denzel "modeled his acting career after Chris Pratt" is simply preposterous and moreover is chronologically impossible.

I very much enjoy Chris Pratt's recent work and hopefully he will have a long, fruitful career. Yet if you feel that Chris Pratt's death scene here in Magnificent Seven was that heroic, then I strongly suggest you watch Denzel's Man On Fire - that was a good film but not anywhere near Denzel's best work yet still his death scene there was superb.

Sorry, but you are absolutely and obviously incorrect on this matter. And without factual attribution of what you are claiming, well, any reasonably knowledgeable movie watcher will disregard your entire comment out of hand.

Your comment would be similar to someone claiming that Robert DeNiro would feel nervous about working with Ryan Reynolds [who I also happen to enjoy]. A laughable, ridiculous comment as well.

And if you were trying to ironically amusing here, sorry...FAIL.

Sounds like the OP got it backwards. Do you want to provide a link to this interview?

Sounds very much like a fake (possibly reversed) story to me.
