Chris Prattis one ofPatrick Schwarzenegger’s greatest supporters.
On Wednesday, Feb. 19, the actor, 45, took to his Instagram Stories to congratulate his brother-in-law on his latest role inThe White Lotus. Beside a photo of Patrick posing forInterview Magazine, Pratt gave him major kudos on his performance in the hit anthology series.
“I am so beyond proud of you man!!!! This is truly the decade of Patrick Schwarzenegger,” theParks and Recreationalum wrote, encouraging his fans to watch stream the series. “You killed it, buddy.”
Pratt also echoed his sentiments in theInterview Magazinefeature, in which he got a chance to ask Patrick questions. At the end of the interview, he told Patrick: “I can’t wait to see it, buddy. And everyone in your family is so proud of you. I’m going to tell the world to get ready for the Patrick Schwarzenegger era. It’s only just beginning.”

Patrick feels an equal sense of pride for his brother-in-law, telling PEOPLE earlier this month that Pratt couldn’t be a better person — both in real life and on set. (The two worked together on the 2022 series,The Terminal List.)
“He’s such a hardworking guy, and I think probably the best thing I learned from Chris was attitude,” he explained. “That guy comes into set each and every day [as] such a positive reinforcement to set and creating the culture there and uplifting people.”

Patrick added that Pratt is “very intentional” about his time and effort, and opened up about how much he admired his dedication to getting to know the crew and taking care of them.
“I would say [what he taught me] was less on the acting front, but more so on the idea of what a leader is and how contagious it is for a lead actor or a star on the show to show up each and every day, and just remember what they’re there to do. And the positivity they’re there to spread, to the other cast and to crew,” he continued.
Though everyone is rooting for a “great end result,” Patrick noted that the journey into creating the product is just as important — and Pratt always demonstrates that.
“That’s just kind of what I learned from him, the respect towards everybody and the uplifting attitude and nature that he had towards all the cast and crew,” he added.
Pratt began dating Katherine in 2018 and the couple married a year later. Since then, they’ve welcomed three children, daughters Eloise and Lyla, and a son namedFord.
