“I need a video of Chris Pratt discovering that Star-Lord is bisexual.”
This week, the Guardians of the galaxy Fandom learned in a new comic that Peter Quill, also known as Star-Lord, is bisexual. This character is portrayed in the movies by Chris Pratt.
Pratt, as you may have heard, is a member of the controversial religious organization, Hillsong Church. As reported by the Daily Beast, Hillsong has a “long history of gay conversion therapy and denies leadership roles to LGBTQ people.”

Over the years, Pratt’s personal views on LGBTQ people have occasionally been questioned. Notably, in 2019, Elliot Page called the actor on a viral tweet to belong to a church that was “infamous anti-LGBTQ”.
Ah! K. Um. But his church is infamous against lgbtq, so maybe he deals with it too? https://t.co/meg8m69FeF
In response, Pratt issued a statement stating that Hillsong was not anti-LGBTQ, saying the church “opens its doors to absolutely everyone.” As proof of this, he noted that he was received into the church after his separation from Anna Faris, “despite what the Bible says about divorce.” He added: “I am a man who believes that everyone has the right to love what they want free from the judgment of their fellows.”
Well, let’s move quickly to this week’s revelation about Star-Lord as a bisexual … and people are wondering what exactly Chris Pratt thinks of the news.
I wonder what #ChrisPratt’s reaction was when he learned that #Marvel has confirmed that StarLord Peter Quill is bisexual! It belongs to an anti-LGBTQ church, in case you didn’t know.
Some people on Twitter imagine that the actor would not be too pleased with the development, given his links to Hillsong.
* Star Lord is bisexual canon * Chris Pratt who goes to an anti lgbt church discovering Star Lord is an lgbt character:
And a lot of people expressed their desire to see Chris Pratt’s reaction to it all.
Others, meanwhile, are fair really enjoying this unexpected twist.
chris prakt ……. who attends a church who is famously anti-lgbtq + ….., … now has an official bisexual character …….. that’s news is * chefs kiss *
Personally, I’m happy to see more bisexual portrayal in Marvel comics and I hope the plot gets to its cinematic universe soon, with an actor 100% fond of the role.
