Emily Blunt Addresses Threat of SAG-AFTRA Strike While Attending 'Oppenheimer' Premiere

Emily Blunt showed solidarity with her fellow actors on the red carpet at her Oppenheimer premiere as the threat of a SAG-AFTRA strike looms.

The 40-year-old actress was joined by co-stars Matt Damon, Cillian Murphy, Robert Downey Jr., Florence Pugh, Josh Hartnett, Kenneth Branagh, Rami Malek and James D’Arcy at the Odeon Luxe Leicester Square on Thursday (July 13) in London, England for the premiere.

While the cast was happy to be supporting their movie, she made it clear that they’d be joining their fellow actors in the strike, which could commence today.

Speaking to Deadline, Emily said that the cast would leave the premiere if a strike was called.

“I hope everyone makes a fair deal, and we are here to celebrate this movie. And if they call it, we’ll be leaving together as cast in unity with everyone,” she said. “We are gonna have to. We are gonna have to. We will see what happens. Right now it’s the joy to be together.”

The cast was joined at the event by director Christopher Nolan. His wife Emma Thomas and Josh‘s wife Tasmin Egerton were also there to show support. We’ve got photos of everyone in the gallery.
