James Gunn revealed on DC's Peacemaker podcast that Chris Pratt initially "bombed" his screen test for the role of Peter Quill/Star-Lord in Guardians of the Galaxy, despite a strong audition. Gunn had to intervene and talk to Pratt, who was struggling and "hurting" during the test, to help him regain his composure. Pratt eventually nailed a second improv screen test alongside Dave Bautista, convincing Disney of his suitability for the role. This incident highlights Gunn's belief in Pratt's talent despite the initial setback[1].
