Chris Pratt has been praised by fans for helping out Millie Bobby Brown when she needed some assistance on stage.
The 45-year-old Guardians of the Galaxy A-lister and the Stranger Things actress, 21, attended press conference in Madrid for their upcoming sci-fi adventure flick, The Electric State, last Thursday (27 February).
A video from the event has since gone viral on social media with many rushing in to commend Pratt on how he handled what could have been a far from ideal situation for Brown.
As the press conference came to an end, Pratt got up from his seat and quickly stood in front of Brown with his back to the audience while she promptly got up from her chair and adjusted her skirt before Pratt walked away.

The co-stars then embraced one another while laughing together.
After watching the clip, one X user penned: "A real and respectful man."
"Chis is a great guy by the looks of it," wrote a second while a third commented: "Chris is a good dude. He saw the situation and helped her out."
A fourth gushed: "Chris Pratt is awesome."
And a final X user echoed: "Chris Pratt is a real one. Pretty sure."
Brown stunned in a Y2K-style patchwork double denim ensemble paired with knee-high shearling boots and oversized gold hoops and her hair in two asymmetric buns.
Unfortunately for the Hollywood star, who has a seriously impressive filmography under her belt alongside countless awards for her acting endeavours, she has had to endure an avalanche of online trolling after being criticised of trying to 'look older'.

Taking to Instagram earlier this week, Brown shared in a statement: "I want to take a moment to address something that I think is bigger than just me, something that affects every young woman who grows up under public scrutiny."
She then reflected: "I started in this industry when I was 10 years old. I grew up in front of the world, and for some reason, people can’t seem to grow with me. Instead, they act like I’m supposed to stay frozen in time, like I should still look the way I did on Stranger Things Season 1. And because I don’t, I’m now a target."
Reading out headlines in her video from news outlets accusing her of 'aging so badly', however, she discussed the apparent 'desperation' of the media 'to tear young women down'.
"This isn't journalism. This is bullying," the Enola Holmes star explained as she called out a handful of authors. "The fact that adult writers are spending their time dissecting my face, my body, my choices is disturbing.
"And the fact that some of these articles are written by women makes it even worse."
Brown then accused such publications of critiquing her looks 'for clicks'.
"Disillusioned people can't handle seeing a girl become a woman on her terms, not their own," she slammed. "I refuse to apologise for growing up. I refuse to make myself smaller to fit the unrealistic expectations of people who can’t handle seeing a girl become a woman.
"I will not be shamed for how I look, how I dress, or how I present myself."
She also questioned: "Why is it the knee-jerk reaction to say something horrible rather than just say something nice? If you have a problem with that, I have to wonder, what is it that actually makes you so uncomfortable?"
Issuing a final demand, Brown concluded her statement by imploring her followers: "Let's do better, not just for me, but for every young girl who deserves to grow up without the fear of being torn apart for simply existing."
