About this listen
Discover the remarkable journey of Emily Blunt, from a young girl struggling with a severe stutter to becoming one of Hollywood's most versatile and acclaimed actresses. In this episode of Biography Flash, we explore how Blunt's childhood speech impediment led to her unexpected acting career when a teacher's suggestion to perform in character voices helped her overcome her stutter.
Born into a family blending legal expertise and performing arts in London, Blunt initially planned to become a translator before finding her calling on stage. Learn how her breakthrough roles in "The Devil Wears Prada" and "Gideon's Daughter" catapulted her to international fame, and how she's masterfully navigated between genres - from period dramas like "The Young Victoria" to action films like "Edge of Tomorrow" and horror in "A Quiet Place."
This episode details her personal life with husband John Krasinski, her journey to motherhood, and her recent Academy Award nomination for "Oppenheimer." We also explore her advocacy work for stuttering awareness and her evolution as a producer and creative force in Hollywood.
