Bryce Dallas Howard has come to the defence of Chris Pratt’s Marvel character Star-Lord, after much blame has been put on him for the devastating ending to Avengers: Infinity War.
In case you need a refresher, Star-Lord’s ill-timed reaction to Gamora’s death allowed Thanos to gain the upper hand again, leading to the supervillain successfully completing his objective of collecting all of the Infinity Stones and unleashing their power.
With a finger snap, half of the world’s population was destroyed at the climax of the blockbuster movie.
While many fans insist that Star-Lord was guilty of helping Thanos win, Bryce – who stars alongside Chris Pratt in the Jurassic World movies – pointed out that the Guardian of the Galaxy wasn’t the one who did the finger snap.
“Was he the cause of it? Wasn’t it Thanos? Wasn’t it Thanos who did it?” she told ComicBook.com.
“Here’s what I thought – I thought that it was a good story, well told. [Star-Lord is] the most human character. He’s half-human, and that spoke to his humanity in that moment.
“I think it is important that everyone realise that it was Thanos who did it. It was Thanos!”
Chris has also defended his character in the past, similarly arguing that he has “humanity”.
“I think he reacted in a way that’s very human, and I think the humanity of the Guardians of the Galaxy is what sets them apart from other superheroes,” he said. “I think if we did it a hundred times I wouldn’t change a thing.”
Avengers 4 will be released in the UK on April 26, 2019, and in the US on May 3, 2019. Avengers: Infinity War is out now on Blu-ray, DVD and digital download.
