Ever wondered how a sitcom star becomes a superhero? HBO's new comedy show, 'The Franchise, ' has a funny take on that. In the latest episode, a character named Kyle, played by Nick Kroll, shows up. He's a superhero called The Gurgler, but he's not your typical hero. Kyle has a dark past, just like some real-life MCU stars. He used to be a chubby sitcom actor, but now he's a slim, powerful hero. The show uses this transformation to make fun of how actors like Chris Pratt became superheroes.

Kyle isn't just a hero, though. He's also a bit of a jerk. He picks on his old co-star, Adam, and causes trouble on set. This is a big change from Chris Pratt's real-life image. Pratt is known for being nice, not mean. The show uses this difference to create a funny, but harsh, character. It's like they're saying, "What if a nice guy turned into a mean superhero? "

The show also makes fun of how big movie franchises, like the MCU, use cameos. Kyle's appearance in the show is like a joke about how these franchises use famous actors to make their movies more exciting. It's a funny way to look at how the movie industry works.
