Actor Chris Pratt posted an apology to Facebook this weekend to apologize in advance for any offensive comments he may unintentionally make on his Jurassic Park press tour.
“I hope you understand it was never my intention to offend anyone and I am truly sorry. I swear. I’m the nicest guy in the world. And I fully regret what I (accidentally will have) said in (the upcoming foreign and domestic) interview(s),” he said in the post.
Pratt says he isn’t making excuses. “I am just dumb. Plain and simple.” he writes.
“To those I (will have) offended please understand how truly sorry I already am. I am fully aware that the subject matter of my imminent forthcoming mistake, a blunder (possibly to be) dubbed “JurassicGate” is (most likely) in no way a laughing matter,” Pratt wrote.
Early this month, Avengers: Age of Ultron stars Jeremy Renner and Chris Evans made unwanted headlines during this press tour when they called their co-star Scarlett Johansson‘s character Black Widow a “slut” in an interview.
