Emily Blunt recently wrapped The Devil Wears Prada 2, but she kept her high-fashion streak going at ELLE’s Women in Hollywood event in Los Angeles. The 2025 honoree and Smashing Machine actress wore a cream Ralph Lauren dress with ruffled accents layered at the neckline. She posed on the red carpet on her own and then with her co-star Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. (Blunt’s husband, John Krasinski, is currently filming a Jake Ryan movie in New York City.)

In her ELLE interview, Blunt spoke about working with Krasinski in A Quiet Place. “I don’t think he knew what he was capable of,” she said. “So it’s sort of like watching someone discover a superpower, which was wild. Before we started, I was like, ‘Look, I’m thrilled to be doing this with you, but do you know how to shoot this movie? Because I don’t know how to shoot a movie. So I’m just asking.’ He was laughing and he was like, ‘I think I do know how to shoot it. I don’t know why, but I think I do.’ Then, my God, did he. And can you imagine if he thought I was really shit? That would not be good. I think if we had done that movie and we didn’t respect or admire each other, it would’ve been an absolute disaster.”

She also credited her role as Miranda Priestly’s first assistant, Emily Charlton, in 2006’s The Devil Wears Prada as being the reason she has the career she does today. Filming the sequel almost 20 years later has been “terribly moving because it changed everything,” she said. “David Frankel [the director] changed my life by casting me when I was an unknown. I’d been working, but no one knew who I was, and he was so sure that he wanted me in the movie, from a taped reading. That meant a huge amount to me.”

“She was such a ludicrous character,” Blunt added of Emily. “It did leave the door open for people to see me as more than a British period drama girl. It paved the way for character roles, which is all I wanted. I didn’t want to be an ingenue. I was curious to explore an entire bag of tricks.”
