Emily Blunt made a heartwarming gesture to celebrate her father's birthday by bringing him to the 2024 Oscars. The actress, who was nominated for Best Supporting Actress at the 96th Academy Awards, attended the ceremony with her parents Oliver and Joanna, along with her husband John Krasinski. Despite not winning the award, Blunt was seen enjoying the red carpet moments with her family.
In a previous interview, Blunt mentioned that her parents were keen on attending the Oscars with her, especially since it coincided with her father's birthday weekend. Emily, the second of four children of Oliver and Joanna, comes from a family background where her mother was a former actress and English teacher, while her father is a lawyer based in London.
Throughout the awards season, Blunt's parents have been a constant support, accompanying her to events like the 2024 EE BAFTA Film Awards. Despite not clinching the award at the BAFTAs or the Oscars, Blunt shared a light-hearted moment with Ryan Gosling during a presentation at the Oscars, where they humorously teased each other about the perceived 'Barbenheimer rivalry.'
Blunt and Gosling are set to star together in the upcoming film 'The Fall Guy,' slated for release on May 3. The action-comedy features Gosling as a stunt performer named Colt Seavers, who collaborates with Blunt's character, a director, on a science fiction blockbuster.
