Actor Chris Pratt is expected to return for the second > “Jurassic World” movie.

The 35-year-old actor is currently starring in the film, which has topped this weekend box office, grossing an amazing USD 204.6 million on its debut weekend, reported Entertainment Weekly .

When asked if he will be back for the sequel, the actor replied, “I am,” before adding with his usual sense of humour, “They have me for I think 38 movies or something.”

Pratt also talked about his childhood love for the franchise.

“I was 13. It started when I saw the movie trailer on TV.

I was like, ‘Oh my god, I have to see that!’ I saw it on opening weekend twice. It just captured my imagination and swept me up.”

That’s why he said working with Steven Spielberg is a big deal for him.

“Working with him and having him be a peer now is pretty remarkable. He’s a guy who’s an icon. I was never a film buff as a kid. I liked to entertain people and I liked comedy and I liked to escape with a movie now and then, but I knew who Steven Spielberg was.

“He was the first real celebrity director. Like the director you’d go see his movie because it was his movie. And Jurassic Park was a big event for me.”
