Emily Blunt admits she ‘wanted to throw up’ during on-screen kisses with actors she ‘didn’t enjoy working with’
ACTRESS Emily Blunt has admitted she wanted to hurl during on-screen kisses with her male co-stars.
Out in theaters, Emily, 41, locks lips with co-star Ryan Gosling, 43, in their new movie, The Fall Guy.
At the end of April, the British actress revealed to The Howard Stern Show how she built chemistry with male actors.
Although she did not name them, the star admitted having “chemistry with people I haven’t liked.”
“I have had chemistry with people who… I have not had a good time working with them,” Emily admitted.
“I’ve got to find something I love about everybody.”
“I have to find something…Even if it’s one thing,” she said.
Emily mentioned moments on set turned gross when her attempts to spark chemistry failed.
“Have you wanted to throw up?” Howard, 70, pressed.
“Absolutely. Absolutely,” she confessed.
“I wouldn’t say it’s sort of extreme loathing, but I’ve definitely not enjoyed some of it.”
Emily, though, did not vomit when she kissed the Barbie actor in their new movie.
“I love his wife, Eva [Mendes]. I love their children, and I feel like I’m very lucky to be friends with a gem of a person like him,” she gushed.
Emily and her John Krasinski, 44, share their two little ones: Hazel, 9, and Violet, 7.
AT THE BOX OFFICE
Over the weekend, The Fall Guy kickstarted the summer season with a lukewarm reception.
The action-packed dud opened to a disappointing $28.5 million at the box office, Variety reported.
EMILY BLUNT'S ON-SCREEN KISSES
Here are some of the actors she kissed on-screen in her movies:
Emily planted her lips with Benicio Del Toro in the 2010 remake of The Wolfman.
She also smooched on-camera with Matt Damon in The Adjustment Bureau in 2011.
Emily also locked lips with with Jason Segel in 2012’s The Five-Year Engagement.
She also lip-wrestled with Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson in Jungle Cruise back in 2022.
The movie, which cost about $140 million to produce, fell short of its $40 million expectations.
The film will need more than strong word of mouth and interest at the international box office if it hopes to recoup its budget during the theatrical run.
‘SOUNDED GROSS’
Emily’s gross confession came after her The Devil Wears Prada co-star, Anne Hathaway, 41, revealed she also had awkward chemistry tests in the early 2000s
“I was told, ‘We have 10 guys coming today and you’re cast. Aren’t you excited to make out with all of them?’ she told V Magazine in late April.
“And I thought, ‘Is there something wrong with me?’ because I wasn’t excited.”
“I thought it sounded gross,” Anne shared.
“It wasn’t a power play, no one was trying to be awful or hurt me.”
“It was just a very different time and now we know better,” the Princess Diaries star closed.
