John Krasinski Cried Uncontrollably While Watching Emily Blunt in 'Mary Poppins Returns'

John Krasinski makes his entrance on the stage for an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, airing on Wednesday (November 28).

The 39-year-old actor opened up about watching his wife Emily Blunt in the movie Mary Poppins Returns for the first time and how he uncontrollably cried during the screening.

John said that he also watched the movie with his family over Thanksgiving weekend.

“I tried to prepare them for how emotional it is. The first time I ever saw it, they give you a tissue box in the screening room,” John said. “I was like, ‘Oh that’s very nice, I don’t have a cold.’ And they started screening the movie and 25 minutes into the movie I stood up and went to the back of the room and Emily said, ‘Do you not like it? I’ve never seen this happen.’”

“I was crying so much. I blew threw the tissue box in 20 minutes. Had to go to the napkins and then when I ran out of the napkins, it was all sweater,” John said.

“It’s honestly one of the most beautiful films. It’s I think exactly what everybody needs for the holidays. It’s pure joy,” he added.
