Thanks for the new bit LightYears!

Curious to see how Emily will do in the survivor

Quote:

Speaking with Jen Yamato of The Los Angeles Times, Blunt and director Rob Marshall explained how the actress’ take on the character would stand apart from that of Julie Andrews’ and how they did some of their more fantastical sequences. One of the most fantastic tricks of all is recapturing the same magic of a classic character without doing an impression. That led Blunt away from the film and toward the source material. P. L. Travers’ books replaced the original movie, as Blunt swore off watching the film again after being cast in the role.

“I didn’t want any natural instinct I might have to be diluted by the brilliance of what [Andrews] did,” the actress said. “I knew that I wanted to take quite a big swing with the character. No one can out-Julie Andrews Julie Andrews! You’ve got to do something else.” So she skewed toward the book version of the character — one a little less sweet than the one fans may feel nostalgic for.

“There’s an eccentricity and a battiness to her. She’s incredibly vain and rude and funny,” Blunt said, “and weird, actually. Like this strange, rare bird. You can’t get a read on where she’s going. But I read the books quite fully, and it became clear to me where I wanted to go with her.”

thanks for the link and interview quote, glad to see Emily so self-aware and respectful of the great Julie Andrews, and that she wanted to bring her own take on MP, now i'm even more excited for this film!
