We may not have seen the last of Chris Pratt as Star-Lord just yet. Across seven Marvel Cinematic Universe appearances, Pratt turned Peter Quill from a Walkman-loving outlaw into a leader who defied gods, saved Gamora, and chose Earth. Marvel Studios has announced nothing, yet fan devotion and Pratt’s proven draw keep the Milano fueled.

Chris Pratt may not have seen the final curtain for Star-Lord. On the red carpet of Mercy, he shared with Entertainment Tonight a candid hope to return, mixing charm and sincerity, as if the cosmos itself might conspire.

"I will do anything they want me to do." Chris Pratt made clear that if Marvel Studios beckons, Peter Quill’s Walkman-wielding leader will return. The actor’s devotion elevates Star-Lord from a role into a personal crusade of interstellar proportions.

Pratt reflected in his interview with Entertainment Tonight, how these characters outlive time itself, citing multiple Spider-Mans as precedent. He insisted that when Star-Lord reappears, it will be Pratt who embodies humor, recklessness, and heart, a mix fans cannot imagine anyone else delivering.

Some fans are already betting Chris Pratt will blast back into action sooner than expected in Avengers: Doomsday.

The chances of Chris Pratt appearing in Avengers: Doomsday

As of January 2026, Chris Pratt may yet soar back into the Marvel cosmos as Star-Lord in Avengers: Doomsday. His omission from the March 2025 cast list only heightened fan hopes, and recent remarks hint that Quill is not finished with heroics.

Chris Pratt has invoked the legendary promise at Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3’s conclusion, insisting he will make good on it. As already mentioned, on the red carpet of Mercy, he left no doubt: Star-Lord’s journey is far from over, and Pratt’s devotion is absolute.

Furthermore, insiders suggest Pratt’s contract covers both Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars, alongside a potential role in the Vision Quest series. Peter Quill’s return to Earth positions him near the Avengers’ base, making a cinematic crossover not only possible but narratively convenient.

Marvel Studios often conceals major stars to preserve surprise entrances. Chris Pratt could follow the precedent set by Chris Evans, initially absent from early announcements yet integral to the final story, leaving fans both anxious and hopeful.
