Not even pregnancy stopped her from killing it on the big screen!
But what else is there to know about Blunt that makes her such an interesting person?
Why did she decide to get into acting, and who has she befriended as her career has progressed?
Does she have any secret talents or quirks?
This is the untold truth of Emily Blunt.
That’s when she introduced Tucci to her sister Felicity, a literary agent, and sparks flew.
“He is the best guy.”
That is such a great story!
They even welcomed their second child in 2018, according toEntertainment Tonight.
“I’m so lucky with John.”
“I was colossally unprepared for how life-changing it is,” she continued.
What was Emily Blunt’s most challenging role?
“TheGirl on the Trainrole.
Just full-blown alcoholism,” she revealed in an interview withBuzzFeed.
“I was also pregnant during the shoot,” she continued.
“So I’d say in general that whole experience was more challenging than most.”
That really does sound like a lot to deal with all at once.
“It was really wild.
It was like finding out that your wife can levitate,” he gushed an interview inVanity Fair.
“It was just like, ‘When were you going to tell me this?'”
“I can play the cello,” she revealed in an interview withWmagazine.
“Honestly I think I’m quite rubbish now.
“I’ve vowed to the ukulele,” she continued.
“Because I think I can bring it with me on set and really everyone will enjoy it.”
Specifically, she struggles with stuttering, something that has caused her a significant amount of difficulty.
“It runs in my family.
I had an uncle, cousin, grandfather who stuttered,” she confessed in an interview withPeoplemagazine.
“It’s nothing to do withanxiety.
It’s just a kind of brain-synapse thing that happens to people who are genetically predisposed to have it.
The worst is having it at 12, 13.”
That would definitely make adolescence more difficult to deal with.
“It’s a real problem for a lot of people,” she continued.
“It’s not just kids.
She added that the organization is amazing to work with.
“I think this job found me,” she explained in an interview withThe Telegraph.
“I certainly wasn’t on the prowl for it.”
It was a therapeutic method of “removing me from me,” she noted.
“It was the most intuitive thing, and he was right,” Blunt continued.
“The only way I could speak fluently was to be someone else.”
It must have been a relief to find something that finally helped!
And in the audience was an agent who snapped her up then and there.
In fact, it was his agent who signed Blunt and got her started in professional productions.
Additionally, she became friends with Dench, who took her under her wing and mentored her.
“She showed me how I wanted to be for the rest of my career.
She was soon cast inThe Devil Wears Prada, and the rest is history.
“It’s so precious,” Blunt gushed in an interview withThe Hollywood Reporter.
“I don’t want to talk about it.”
I knew this was a big swing for him.”
By August of 2009, the couple was engaged to be married, according to an article inPeoplemagazine.
Hey, when you know, you know.
Having that as an option was something that came as quite the surprise for the both of them.
“I’m still rather shocked about it.
We thought he was joking the first couple of times he said it.”
Krasinski put quite the rock on her finger, too!
“This was so personal to me,” she shared in an interview withScreenCrush.
Additionally, Blunt knows she can be a bit anxious about the same things that her character would be.
“So this character’s experience would be the depth of hell for me.
But I understood her plight and understood everything about her.”
Acting opposite her real-life husband had to have an impact, too!
“I think it must have been forMy Summer of Love.
That doesn’t sound like it worked out well at all!
Not my finest moment.”
An atmosphere you could cut with a knife.”
That would certainly have an impact!
“He doesn’t like working with rapists.
“It was playing spin the bottle,” she recalled in an interview withWmagazine.
“I was thirteen and his name was Ashley Clark.
It was my birthday party.
I was so nervous.”
That sounds like an experience a lot of folks can identify with.
“Just don’t really know how to cope with it.
It was just all rather overwhelming.”
She added that, after the kiss was over, she surreptitiously wiped her mouth off.
That’s about as awkward as it can get!
