8 of the Most Swoon-Worthy Things Emily Blunt and John Krasinski Have Said About Each Other
This week, after almost a decade of being together, Hollywood power couple John Krasinski and Emily Blunt announced they would FINALLY be working together. John is directing a table-read of the Matt Damon and Ben Affleck classic Good Will Hunting, and he’s cast Emily in the role of Skylar (originally played by Minnie Driver).
“So I’m casting this #LiveReadNY of Good Will Hunting, then ran into this #girlonthetrain and thought… yeah it’s time to work together!,” he captioned an adorbs pic of the two on Instagram, before capping it off with an ULTRA dorky Jim Halpert joke of “Howdaya like THEM apples?” Frankly, John, we love them.
We’re not surprised John cast his wife in this project — these two are very publicly very in love with each other, and if their previous collaborations — um, yes, we’re talking about their growing family and their insanely nice home — are any indication, we’re in for something good. Here are eight times we couldn’t get enough of John and Emily’s love.

3. “All I can say is that it’s an effing blast,” Emily told Modern Luxury magazine about being married to John. “It’s just great, and I’m so happy.” It’s the simple things. (Photo via Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty)

5. “The truth is, she really is that person who would like me any way,” John said to Elle about Emily enjoying his new ripped physique but not caring either way. “But I don’t think she’s going to kick the eight-pack abs out of bed.” (Photo via Alexandra Wyman/Getty)
6. Emily told InStyle that John has changed her life. “When I feel the support that I have from him, I feel invincible. There’s someone behind you on your good days, and someone in front of you on your bad days.” (Photo via Paul Hiffmeyer/Getty)
