Emily Blunt opens up on working with Christopher Nolan
Working with Christopher Nolan is certainly a dream come true for many actors. During an episode of Variety’s Actors On Actors, Emily Blunt and Anne Hathaway spoke about their experiences with working with Nolan.
While speaking about how Christopher Nolan never tells his actors that he is happy with a scene but it becomes evident with his hair, Blunt said:
“I always feel that with Chris’ hair. I can tell when he is very happy with a take because his hair starts to dance. It’s almost like he vibrates when he’s happy. He’s not going to tell you that he’s that happy, though, because he’s very English.”
It’s safe to say that Blunt enjoyed her time working with Christopher Nolan in Oppenheimer. Moreover, the movie has certainly added a lot of credibility to her name as well.
