Actor Chris Pratt has come a long way from his days stripping and living in a van to become one of Hollywoods most lovable, and bankable, action stars. The actor, who has two blockbusters in theaters this summer with "Avengers: Infinity Wars" and "Jurassic Park: Fallen Kingdom", is poised for another profitable year. Listed as the fifth "best actor for the buck" by Forbes last year, Pratt raked in $43 million over the past two years, according to the outlet, and is expected to make $10 million for the new "Jurassic World" movie alone, reports Variety.com."
While the actor grew up in a blue collar household and was homeless for a time, he always knew he'd be successful and famous one day. "My high school wrestling coach reminds me about this time I came into his office and he said, 'Chris, what do you want to do with yourself?' " Pratt told Entertainment Weekly in 2014. He added: "I was like, 'I don't know, but I know I'll be famous and I know I'll make a s- ton of money.' "
