Emily Blunt, the talented actress known for starring in family-friendly movies, recently opened up about how her own children reacted to seeing her on screen.
Blunt, who shares two daughters with husband John Krasinski, revealed that her kids, Hazel and Violet, were not fans of watching their mom in movies.
Despite appearing in kid-friendly films like “The Muppets,” “Mary Poppins Returns,” and “Jungle Cruise,” Blunt’s daughters were unsettled by certain scenes. In fact, the underwater scenes in “Jungle Cruise,” where Blunt’s character is in peril, left her little ones in tears and ultimately led them to leave the room.
Blunt’s co-star in “Jungle Cruise,” Dwayne Johnson, shared a similar experience with his own daughters while filming the action-comedy. Ryan Gosling, who stars alongside Blunt in “The Fall Guy,” also expressed concern over his children’s reactions to his work in the movie.
Both actors acknowledged that their children have a hard time separating their parents from the characters they play on screen. Gosling admitted that his kids were not impressed with his on-screen appearances, while Blunt emphasized that her kids prefer her to be just their parent.
Despite the challenges of filming family-friendly movies, both Blunt and Gosling continue to take on roles that push boundaries and entertain audiences.
As “The Fall Guy” hits theaters, the actors reflect on the dangers and thrills of their stunt work in the industry. The movie, directed by David Leitch and written by Drew Pearce, promises to deliver action-packed entertainment for viewers of all ages.
