Title: Emily Blunt Tells the Story of How She Met Her Husband

Conversation text:

Your girls are 4 and 2?

They are 4 and 2.

And, now, I'm assuming they're not gonna see this film, but have they seen you on film?

And how do they react when they see you?

My daughters, in general, loathe to see me onscreen. In general, you know?

I know, when I was doing \"Mary Poppins,\"

I'd even FaceTime my daughter, and she'd be like, \"Take that silly old Mary Poppins wig off.\"

She was like, \"I like your blond hair.\"

That's lovely.

But, actually, we were having a Super Bowl Party, and the trailer for \"Quiet Place\" came on, which is terrifying.

And Hazel sort of wandered in with a hot dog in hand. And she goes like this She goes, \"Whoa.\" That's you, Mommy.\"

And I was like, \"Yeah.\" And then there was a bit where I scream.

I don't know if anyone's seen the trailer, but I'm literally like scream at the end of the trailer. And she You could see her brain exploding.

But, instead, she went, \"Ha...cool.\" And then, like, walked out and never talked about it again.

Well, that's the key to parenting is when a traumatic thing happens, just let them deal on it on their own.

Listen, that's how I was raised. That's like the British way.

That's the British way.

They know something painful's happened to you. Give it 10 years.

Sweep it under the carpet. Yeah.

Are you You must be excited for them to see \"Mary Poppins.\"

Well, they are in love with Julie Andrews' Mary Poppins.

Okay. And had they been in love – I mean, I guess they're not old enough to have been in love with it for a long time, but how long have they seen –

Well, I never showed it to them during my shooting of the film,

partly 'cause I just selfishly didn't want to be so distracted by how brilliant Julie Andrews was in the role,

already feeling that there was this, like, iconic boulder that I had to, like, move aside to play this part.

Were you worried that, like, your kids will see this one and be like, \"You're our secondfavorite Mary Poppins\"?

Oh, I'm not even on the list. They're, like, creepy obsessed with Julie Andrews now, yeah.

That will be a terrifying moment, then, for you. That will be scarier than \"A Quiet Place,\" having to watch your kids react to it.

Yeah, I just don't even think they should see \"Mary Poppins.\" Like, they should never watch it.

This will be your third film with Meryl Streep.

I know. It's like, \"Get your own movie.\" You know what I mean?

Exactly. Thank you for saying that, 'cause I thought the same thing.

Stalker. Yeah, and we always play people who sort of loathe each other in the films that we do.

Is there truth to the rumor \"The Devil Wears Prada\" There might be another \"Devil Wears Prada\"?

I mean, I would love it.

Yeah. We all would.

Did you know Stanley Tucci is my brotherinlaw?

I did know that Stanley Tucci was your BrotherinLaw.

He, like, wormed his way into the family.

But he wasn't during the first \"Devil Wears \"

No. So, we met on the first movie. I'm talking about like there is another movie. We met on the first \"Devil Wears Prada.\"

And I just loved him so much, so he was at our wedding and then met my sister.

That's unbelievable. And they've been married for a while now, right?

They've been married I don't even know how long. Too long.

Too long. Yeah.

And when you met John, he was already on \"The Office,\" yes?

He was, yeah.

And were you aware of that show when you met him?

I was sort of aware that he was vaguely recognizable, but I was a huge –

That's so romantic.

Yeah. It was like... \"You look blurily familiar.\"

Yeah. But I was a big fan of the British \"Office.\"

Uhhuh. That's what the people on the American \"Office\" love to hear.

Yeah, exactly. And then I sort of bingewatched the American \"Office\" and loved it.

And how did you guys meet?

It's, like, kind of a sad, lame story. You know, not sad, but it's just kind of lame.

I mean, I was in a restaurant. He was in the restaurant.

I was sitting with a mutual friend. This is our romantic comedy. This is it. Write it!

This is Paul and Meredith.

And my friend Gray goes, \"Oh, my God. There's my friend John.\" And that was it.

Oh really?

Yeah.

And he came over to the table?

Guys, it's golden. It's cinema gold.

It is really good. Did he I'm sorry to ask for the logistics to this.

Did he then come over and eat his meal with you?

No. He was actually sitting with our friend Justin Theroux.

And then he abandoned Justin and came over to come and talk to us.

He did not eat. He just stood there and made me laugh. Yeah.

There you go. And it's worked out.

He just did a bit.

And all these years later... And did you know right away? I'm sorry to dig in here.

I kind of did. Yeah. Yeah.

That's good.

Am I speaking to \"Us Weekly\"? I love you. I'm sorry.

I just want to make it clear that you guys, as stars, are just like us.

I know. I am just like you guys. Yeah.

But I'm so happy. It's wonderful really I mean, for waiting to see you guys work together, I never would have predicted this film.

And it just so wonderful that you guys did it.

It's so disturbing.

Yeah, it's really disturbing, but it's really great.

It's so good. I'm thrilled you love it. It's sort of been overwhelming,

actually, 'cause we were really nervous to work together, and terrified John, in general, was sort of terrified of, like, how people will view this film or whether they'll accept it.

And people have just been incredible about it. They just love it.

Well, they're right. It's really wonderful.

And thank you so much for being here. It's just a delight to have you.

Hey, anytime.
