Hollywood is abuzz as two of its brightest stars, Chris Pratt and Millie Bobby Brown, team up for the highly anticipated sci-fi adventure, The Electric State. Known for his roles in blockbuster franchises like Guardians of the Galaxy and Jurassic World, Pratt joins Brown, celebrated for her iconic performance in Stranger Things, in a story set in a post-apocalyptic world following a robot uprising.
In The Electric State, we follow the journey of an orphaned teenager, played by Brown, as she embarks on a quest to find her lost brother. Along the way, she encounters various friends, including Pratt’s character, who becomes a crucial ally. The film promises a blend of action, heart, and a thought-provoking exploration of humanity’s relationship with technology.
In a recent interview, both stars shared their excitement for the film and the chemistry they developed on set. Millie spoke candidly about her initial nerves, saying, “I was obviously nervous at first. But to actually become friends was such a delight.” Pratt’s natural humor played a significant role in easing her nerves. “He is just so funny that I often found myself cracking up during takes,” she added, highlighting the fun atmosphere they created together.
Directed by the Russo Brothers, known for their work on Avengers: Endgame, The Electric State combines grand storytelling with intimate character moments. Pratt praised the film’s focus on human connections amidst the chaos, saying, “It’s massive in scope but really rooted in humanity.” This thematic depth is set against a backdrop of vibrant visuals and an engaging storyline.
One unique aspect of the film is its portrayal of robots. Rather than traditional antagonists, these robots are depicted as service-oriented and endearing. “They’re the kind of robots that would serve you ice cream,” Chris explained, emphasizing the film’s refreshing take on the genre.
Beyond their on-screen camaraderie, the two stars share a love for animals, which further deepened their bond during filming. Millie described her farm life, filled with rescued animals, while Chris recounted helping her find homes for some of her pets. “It’s incredible how our shared passion for animal welfare brought us closer,” he said.
As they look forward to the film’s release, both Pratt and Brown are excited to share their story with audiences. The Electric State not only promises thrilling action but also a poignant exploration of friendship and resilience in a rapidly changing world. With this dynamic duo at the helm, fans can expect a memorable cinematic experience.
