    Chris Pratt's daughters know "exactly what to do to control" him

    The 44-year-old actor has Lyla, three, and Eloise - who will turn two on Tuesday (21.05.24) - with Katherine Schwarzenegger and admitted that after his wife planned all the celebrations, his little girls have a certain "power" offer him that he wants them to take on into later life.


    He told US TV show 'Extra': "Katherine does an amazing job planning parties... We had bunnies and chickens and ducks, an amazing cake and balloons and a bouncy house. All her friends came. It was so cute, it was so sweet - they ate pizza and listened to music. It was so fun!

    "They got my number. They know exactly what to do to control me, and that's good. I want them to be able to have the power over people.

    "Katherine is very good; she can get what she wants out of them, they get what they want out of me."

    Meanwhile, the Holywood star - who also has 11-year-old son Jack with ex-wife Anna Faris - has just voiced the title role in 'The Garfield Movie' - which is based on the famed orange tabby cat - and joked that Katherine was "used" to the lazy demeanor he embodied while trying to bring the character to life.

    He said: "The prep on 'Garfield' was glorious - so much lasagna, so much pizza, so much bathing myself with my own tongue. Katherine's used to that by now... I have been researching this role my whole life, just lying around eating.

    "My girls haven't seen it yet. It might just be the first movie that my youngest has ever seen... It's still funny for, truly, kids of all ages."
