Chris Pratt Becomes Action Hero for New Movie, Runs Into Ocean Dressed as Cop

Chris Pratt looked like a legit action hero while filming a scene for his new movie — and he’s doing all his own stunts, it seems … chasing a fictional bad guy into the Pacific Ocean.

The actor was spotted this week in costume and in character as an LAPD officer, shooting scenes up in Malibu — which included one set piece that required him to chase a dude down into the sea, fully clothed mind you.

Chris was on the move in another clip too … where he was seen holding out his gun and telling someone to get down. BTW, this movie he’s filming is called ‘Mercy,’ and it’s a sci-fi thriller where he plays a detective accused of a crime and needing to prove his innocence.

Despite playing the funny, fat sidekick in “Parks and Recreation,” CP has transformed into a bona fide action star in the last decade … and he’s keeping that streak going in this flick.

Remember, Chris did a full body transformation to play a professional athlete in “Moneyball” and a Navy seal in “Zero Dark Thirty.” Don’t forget, Chris also became a Marvel superhero and led the “Jurassic World” franchise because of this new look.
