For “Fallen Kingdom,” he was paid $10 million, $2 million more than his co-lead actor Bryce Dallas Howard.

Pratt's net worth is estimated to be around $80 million.

He first rose to fame by playing Andy Dwyer in the television series "Parks and Recreation," which ran from 2009 to 2015.

Pratt was nominated for the Critics' Choice Television Award for Best Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series in 2013.

He went on to become one of the biggest movie stars on the planet. Some of Pratt's notable films include "Zero Dark Thirty" and “Passengers.”
