"We did several movies together. We golfed, drank whiskey, smoked cigars, and spent endless hours on set," wrote Pratt on his Instagram Stories. "I'll never forget his toughness."

McFarr first teamed up with Pratt on 2015's Jurassic World, then stuck with him on the 2016 movie Passengers, 2017's Guardians of the Galaxy sequel and 2018's Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom.

Wrote Pratt in his tribute, "I remember he took a nasty shot to the head (in the title sequence of Guardians 2) and got several staples in his head - he came right back to work ready to go again. He was an absolute stud. He was always a gentleman and professional."

"He'll be missed," added Pratt. "My prayers go out to his friends and family, especially his daughter."
