Emily Blunt is taking a hiatus from acting -- but she won't be getting rid of her Oppenheimer co-star, Matt Damon, that easy!
"This year, I'm not working. I worked quite a bit last year and my oldest baby is nine, so we’re in the last year of single digits," Blunt explained, giving her reasons for taking a break."And I just feel [like] there are cornerstones to their day that are so important when they're little. And it's, 'Will you wake me up? Will you take me to school? Will you pick me up? Will you put me to bed?' And I just need to be there for all of them for a good stretch.
That being said, Blunt and Krasinski are neighbors to Damon, his wife, Luciana, and their two kids in Brooklyn, New York, so she'll still be in touch with her co-star."They're in our building. We are like some weird commune. I don't ever see Matt Damonin his slippers anymore, you know. He’s just always in his slippers," she quipped of the A-list actor."I haven't seen him in regular shoes in a long time. That's because we live in the same building.
As for what he's like as a neighbor, Blunt added,"Matt is just the most easygoing, beautiful person. Lucy is even more beautiful – sorry, Matt. But we all became friends and then they moved to Brooklyn and they said, 'We found this amazing building.' And of course, we were like, 'We'll live in the same building!' But there's really lovely, cool people living in Brooklyn and we have Sunday night dinners…the kids love each other.
And when it comes to how she and Krasinski spend quality time together, it's probably very similar to many married couples. "It's usually the morning. We [rescued] a puppy who's absolutely beautiful…I wasn't wanting to get a dog, but the kids were pushing for it and John was up for it…I don't mind getting up early with this puppy because it means that John and I can kind of talk in the morning and catch up and really talk before the kids are up and everything," she shared.
