Chris Pratt crops Jennifer Lawrence on his Instagram photos as his way of pranking the actress and her fans who have been asking the actor to take a selfie with the Oscar winning actress. The week-long prank is getting a lot of publicity as the duo promotes their newest film "Passengers," but fans are saying stop while others are finding it amusing and hilarious.

Pratt of the "Guardians of the Galaxy" and "Jurassic World" fame has been known to be a prankster, which he evidently reveals in a series of Instagram photos involving Lawrence. Pratt and Lawrence have been making various interviews and promotions of their latest film, "Passengers."

"Passengers" is a sci-fi romance where two passengers where woken up from cryo-sleep 90 years earlier. While their spacecraft is enroute to a distant colony planet, the two passengers fell in love with each other, but also face a series of mechanical troubles along the way.

"Passengers" will hit theaters on Dec. 21 and both Pratt and Lawrence are following a hectic schedule of promoting their new film. While on promotion, Pratt the prankster has been uploading photos and a video on his Instagram account where he intentionally crops Lawrence's face or block her entirely.

Pratt's pranks come after a series of requests by fans for him to upload a selfie photo with the actress. The 37-year-old actor began last Tuesday Nov. 29, where he uploads a photo cropping half of Lawrence's face and seemingly teasing fans with the caption "Finally got that selfie with Jen y'all wanted," Time reported.

 Finally got that selfie with Jen y'all wanted. #passengersmovie

Last Wednesday, Pratt took another photo of himself and Lawrence's back and then posted a group photo cropping half of Lawrence's body. On Thursday, he uploaded a slow-motion video of himself doing an experiment and then teased fans that Lawrence is heavily featured in it, when in fact the actress is seen running to the back and keeping a safe distance from him, US Weekly has learned.

Not yet content, Pratt also posted a photo blocking the actress entirely that only her hand on a glass can be seen. During a guesting in the "Graham Norton Show," Pratt again uploaded a group photo with the naked chef in clothes, but again cropping the actress' face.

Though some fans find it amusing and hilarious, others do not especially the fans of Lawrence. Pratt cropping Lawrence has to stop is an outcry shared by many of the fans, but only time will tell if the actor pays heed or may even resort to more pranking.
