Chris Pratt, Jennifer Aniston, Ashton Kutcher and many more...

With Chris Pratt wrapping Hollywood around his little finger in Guardians Of The Galaxy, another TV funnyperson has successfully made the transition to full-on movie glory.

It's no biggie for a small-screen actor to have a go at the film world (George Clooney being one such example) or indeed for those in the film world to have a go at the small screen (Kerry Washington! Kevin Spacey! Sally Field); but when a comedy star off the telly makes a seamless transition, it really is a noteable achievement.

For some reason, the funnier thesps seem to find it harder to be taken seriously, so when they find success in features - whether it's sticking with comedy or branching out into more 'serious' fare - we can't help but feel very happy for them indeed.

From Pratt to the likes of Melissa McCarthy, Jennifer Aniston and Jim Carrey, take a look below at 22 TV comedians who made it big in Hollywood.
