As Emily Blunt discussed getting in shape for the physically demanding part, she mentioned that action movie star Tom Cruise "tightens the screws on everyone when it comes to what you think you're capable of."
"And because he can do everything and wants to do everything, it makes you want to meet him where he is at," she shared, adding, “He's so inspiring. Such a doll to me.” "He is so gracious. So cute. Oh, so cute. I loved him. Yeah. He was amazing," she continued. She also praised Tom for including her in many aspects of the film's production.
"We were sort of writing the third act as we went," she said. "And again, sometimes the best movies, they're born out of that chaos. And I think I thought it was going to be sort of boys club and [Cruise] brought me into every script meeting, every single decision."
