In a recent conversation with Josh Horowitz, Emily Blunt opened up about her first-time Oscar nomination for her role in Oppenheimer. The actress admitted that being referred to as an Academy Award nominee doesn't feel entirely natural yet, despite the months-long buzz leading up to the nominations. Blunt revealed that the anticipation leading up to the announcement was quite scary, and she tried her best to not pay too much attention to the buzz surrounding it. However, when she finally received the news, it was a magical moment for her and everyone involved in the movie.
Interestingly enough, Blunt learned about her nomination in a very unexpected and unglamorous way. She confessed that she found out about her nomination in the middle of Brooklyn while picking up her dog's poop. The timing might not have been ideal, but the news was certainly perfect, leading her to have a brief emotional moment. Her husband, John Krasinski, also shared in her excitement, leading to a heartfelt shared cry after he helped clean up their dog's mess.
