Mission accomplished.
Emily Blunt claims Tom Cruise gave her some unconventional — but encouraging — advice when they worked together on “Edge of Tomorrow.”
The actress, now 39, recalled her Hollywood co-star delivering some tough love on the set of the 2014 action flick, a departure from her usual rom-com fare. She said Cruise told her to “stay so ap-y” as she struggled with her 85-pound costume.
“We had to wear these big suits, which I think would have been better if we had CGIed them, but we wanted to do it tactically,” she said on Monday’s episode of “Smart Lace ” explained the podcast. According to the news.
“When you hear the word ‘structured,’ you think it looks nice and comfortable. There was nothing comfortable about that dress. It was like 85 pounds. It was too heavy,” she continued. “The first time I put it on I started crying, and [Cruise] He didn’t know what to do.”
Blunt said Cruise “looked at her” because she was too nervous about wearing heavy clothing.
“I was like, ‘Tom, I’m not sure how I’m going to get through this shooting,’ and just started crying,” she admitted. I said, ‘I feel a little nervous about the whole shoot.’
Cruise’s alleged response made the “Devil Wears Prada” star cry again — but in a good way.
“He just looked at me for a long time, not knowing what to do, and he went, ‘Come on, stop behaving like that, okay?'” she said, catching her off guard and laughing. did it
The Post has reached out to a representative for Cruz, 60, for comment.
In “Edge of Tomorrow,” Cruise and Blunt play time-warriors trying to save humanity after Earth is invaded by aliens.
The giant suit wasn’t the only challenge Blunt faced on the set of the sci-fi film, revealing that she also injured her legs and collarbone. She reportedly told podcast hosts Jason Bateman, Sean Hayes and Will Arnett that the affected bone is “still numb.”
