Since then, the happy couple has welcomed two children of their own, Lyla and Eloise, who may just be a tad too young to see the animated film their dad is currently promoting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>&#8220;If they act right, they&#8217;ll get a personal screening, but if not, no. So far, it&#8217;s half and half,&#8221; he joked. &#8220;I&#8217;d love to have a personal screening, it&#8217;ll be great. As soon as they&#8217;re ready for that, which, by the way I think is pretty soon because this movie is &#8212; it&#8217;s OK for kids, it&#8217;s safe for kids.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<figure class=\"shortcode shortcode-image content-in\"><figcaption class=\"content-in\"><span>Chris Pratt posted a rare photo of his three kids to his Instagram Story back in January.<\/span> &#8211; <span class=\"shortcode-image__credit\">@prattprattpratt on Instagram<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span>Pratt added, &#8220;I think they&#8217;ll probably watch it pretty soon.

For the actor, it&#8217;s not only an honor to have a movie that he can enjoy with his children, but to be a part of a project that brings an iconic character to life in a new way.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>&#8220;It&#8217;s so cool to present Garfield to the world,&#8221; he said of the film, in which he lends his voice to the titular character.
