Emily Blunt spoke about her role in The Fall Guy, hailed her costar Ryan Gosling and also explained how marrying to her director husband John Krasinski helped her in this film.
During her conversation with PEOPLE magazine in Austin, at the world premiere of The Fall Guy on Tuesday, Blunt gushed over her role of a director in the film noting, “I liked her eccentricity, I liked her humanity. She was fun to me. I just loved her.”
She added, "I like that we didn't do the sort of earnest, serious director. I was keen to show somebody in a situation where she was way over her head and yet she's incredible and talented."
Emily also explained how she took notes from her husband’s life experiences to play the role of a director Jody Moreno in The Fall Guy.
“I am married to a director, I know what it's like to hold the tempest of the movie in your head and the pressures and being pulled in a million directions,” she told the outlet.
The Oppenheimer actress also gushed over her costar Ryan Gosling, saying, “I mean he's just so easy peasy to be around.”
Emily added of Ryan, “He's a dream collaborator as well. And that idea of stretching a scene around to see the best idea that wins. He's so much fun. I just loved it, loved it. It was sad when it was over.”
The Fall Guy, which is slated to release on May 3, 2024 is the film adaptation of the hit 1980s television drama of the same name. It is directed by David Leitch.
