Inside Scary Movie Star Anna Faris' Family: Meet Her Husband and the Son She Shares With Ex-Husband Chris Pratt
Fame stays outside; family rules inside. Go inside Anna Faris' low-key, big-hearted world—her co-parenting playbook, blended-family rhythm, and the sweet milestones she savors with her son.
Anna Faris has been back in the spotlight thanks to Scary Movie 6, and if you caught the premiere photos, you probably noticed she brought her 13-year-old son Jack along. It was a sweet full-circle moment for someone who has juggled cult-comedy fame, a couple of very public marriages, and a genuinely low-key second act. Here is where her family life actually stands right now — no fluff, just the beats that matter.
The quick version
- 2004–2008: Married to actor Ben Indra.
- 2009–2018: Married to Chris Pratt; they share one son, Jack.
- Aug 2012: Jack is born seven weeks early and spends nearly a month in the hospital; he later undergoes a few surgeries and physical therapy.
- 2017: Faris and Pratt split; she meets cinematographer Michael Barrett on the Overboard set and starts dating him afterward.
- 2019: Engagement news surfaces — still very private.
- 2021: Quiet wedding in Washington state.
- June 2026: Jack hits the Scary Movie 6 red carpet with his mom; fans on social media rally behind Faris.
Meet Michael Barrett (aka Husband No. 2)
Faris is married to cinematographer Michael Barrett — you have seen his work even if you do not know his name. He shot movies like Ted and worked on Supergirl, among plenty of other projects. The two met while she was making the 2018 Overboard remake, kept things largely under wraps as rumors swirled, then popped up engaged in 2019. They went extra low-key with a small ceremony in Washington state in 2021. Honestly, more celebrity couples should try that approach.
"This time, it has been easier for me to accept a lot of love. I still kind of struggle with it but... When I was younger, if there was a lot of love — I must've subconsciously liked a chase ... It feels healthier, though, whatever it is. It feels like I can be love."
That is Faris talking about where her head is now on the Dear Chelsea podcast. You can feel the shift. She is also a stepmom to Barrett's two kids from a previous relationship.
About Jack
Faris and Chris Pratt were married for nine years and welcomed their son, Jack, in 2012. He arrived seven weeks early and spent close to a month in the hospital. It was a scary stretch — she has written about that period in her book Unqualified — and Jack needed a few surgeries and physical therapy in his early years. By 2013, she told David Letterman he was doing well and healthy, and in 2021, during an event for the Global Alliance to Prevent Prematurity and Stillbirth, she called him pretty much the cutest kid she could imagine. They co-parent, and it has stayed steady.
Jack does not show up at events often, but when he does, it lands. Case in point: the June 2026 Scary Movie 6 premiere, where he walked the carpet with his mom and generally made it look easy. The internet loved it, and so did Faris fans who have been rooting for her to keep winning.
Quick career refresher (because yes, she has range)
Beyond the new Scary Movie chapter, Faris is still the chaos agent we fell for as Cindy Campbell in the original run and as Zoey in The Dictator — plus a pile of other comedies that cemented her as a go-to for left-field timing. The personal stuff has been complicated at times, but she has kept the work coming while building a family that fits her pace now. Not flashy. Just solid.
