Since her turn in The Devil Wears Prada, the British actress Emily Blunt has quickly been both a Hollywood and red carpet mainstay. The film star has earned a host of recognitions throughout her decades-long career—most recently, a Best Supporting Actress Oscars nod for her role in the Christopher Nolan epic, Oppenheimer.
