Emily Blunt Says Her Daughters Thought She Was the “Meanest Person” for Her ‘Devil Wears Prada’ Role

As a die-hard fan of Emily Blunt‘s extraordinary acting skills, it’s fascinating to delve into her reminiscences about her iconic role in The Devil Wears Prada. It’s amusing yet not surprising that her children find her character, Emily Charlton, less than charming. After all, who would want a real-life version of such a high-strung assistant!


Fans might consider Emily Blunt’s character in “The Devil Wears Prada” as an icon, but her kids may not share the same sentiment.

More recently, the actress openly shared with Page Six that her two girls, Hazel (aged 10) and Violet (aged 7), who she has with her husband John Krasinski, didn’t find her character Emily Charlton from the 2006 movie very appealing.

I was told I came across as the most demanding person they’ve ever encountered,” I admitted, reminiscing about my role in ‘The Devil Wears Prada’. In this film, I portrayed a tense assistant at a fictional fashion magazine known as ‘Runway’, working alongside acting legends Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway.

Nevertheless, the movie remains cherished by numerous fans, a fact that continues to astonish the actress who played Oppenheimer. “It’s amazing how deeply it’s etched into people…and I’m still hearing quotes from it each week,” she shared.

Moreover, Blunt fondly remembered it as an unforgettable experience while collaborating on the David Frankel-directed comedy-drama with Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, and Stanley Tucci. The work was simply fantastic!

When I was still quite young, it was my initial major film role, as the star of “The Fall Guy” shared. I can still recall my agent phoning me to discuss the movie’s opening weekend. I responded with genuine curiosity, asking, ‘Is that a positive thing?’ As if I wasn’t aware of what constituted success.

After its premiere, “The Devil Wears Prada” brought in an astounding $326 million at global cinemas and secured Meryl Streep a prestigious Oscar nomination for her portrayal of Miranda Priestly, the editor-in-chief of Runway magazine.

As a gamer, I’m all fired up about the possibility of Anne Hathaway returning to her iconic role from “The Devil Wears Prada.” It seems like a sequel to the 2006 movie is brewing over at Disney, but for now, it’s just a work in progress with no deals signed for the cast yet.
