Step right into Star-Lord's world...

In a video posted on Chris Pratt's Facebook page Wednesday, the Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 star gives a hilarious tour of the sequel's set at Pinewood Atlanta Studios. Pratt reprises his role as space-traveling, wise-cracking hero Peter Quill, aka Star-Lord.

"This is my fire hydrant," Pratt says, walking by one. "They named it after me. It's the Star-Lord fire hydrant. No dogs are allowed to pee on it. If a dog pees on it, they go to the pound."

"These are called air conditioning units," he later explains, walking by a few. "I mean, not to brag, but I know a lot of stuff."

 

The video was filmed for an Omaze charity fundraising initiative close to Pratt's heart—fans can donate to the Lake Stevens Boys and Girls Club, located in the actor's hometown of Lake Stevens, Washington, to enter a competition to win a lunch with him and a visit to the Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 set.

"How luxurious and glamorous is the Hollywood life? I honestly don't think it gets any better than this right here," Pratt wrote on Facebook. "Come live like royalty with me for a day on the Guardians Vol. 2 set! All for a great cause and to help some amazing kids!" 

Pratt, known for his dry sense of humor, later shows viewers a sound stage where a replica of Star-Lord's spaceship, the Milano, was being built. The vessel was featured prominently in the first Guardians of the Galaxy movie and was criticized over its lack of cleanliness by ally Gamora, played by Zoe Saldana, 37.

"Oh, memories!" Pratt says in the Facebook video. "Mmmhmm, this is my ship. That's the right side. Over there, technical term, the left side." 

In the clip, the actor also orders a plate of eggs at a craft services station.

"When you're here with me, you're gonna get some free eggs too."

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 also stars returning actors Saldana, Bradley Cooper, 41, who voices Rocket Raccoon, Vin Diesel, 48, who voices Groot, Dave Bautista, 47, who reprises his role as Drax, and Michael Rooker, 61, who plays Yondu again. Franchise newcomers include Sons of Anarchy alum Tommy Flanagan, 50, as well as Kurt Russell, 65, who plays Star-Lord's dad.

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 is set for release on May 5, 2017.
