Emily Blunt stopped by the Good Morning America studios earlier this week looking stylishly festive. She popped onto the set to talk about her new flick, Mary Poppins Returns. She gave a fair warning to viewers that the Disney musical will make them cry.
The 35-year-old got into the holiday spirit when she wore a long sleeved dark green bodycon dress with silver and pink sandals. She opted not to wear a coat for the cold day and her dress was adorned with big gold buttons.
The British actress joked on the show how the movie will make fans shed some tears. "Most people cry when they see this film — even my most cynical of friends," she quipped.
Emily continued, "My dad too. My dad, truly it was a memory I will have on my deathbed because he doesn't cry and he was overcome. He just was beetroot red from trying not to cry when he saw me."
