“There was one that [director] Doug [Liman] kind of sneakily handed over to me,” she revealed. “I would absolutely love to bring it to life, but I’m unsure of when or how. And how many more ‘Mission: Impossibles’ does Tom [Cruise] really need?” the talented actress playfully teased.

Blunt playfully acknowledged that Cruise should consider returning to his roots as the cowardly hero, saying, “Wasn’t he incredible?”
In 2014, Blunt and Cruise starred in Liman’s “Edge of Tomorrow,” featuring Cruise reliving the same day in a battle against aliens.
Blunt expressed her readiness for a sequel, assuring that she is not the one holding it back.
Cruise’s recent film, “Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One,” premiered last month, with the second installment set for release in June 2024.

Meanwhile, Blunt previously revealed her decision to take a temporary break from acting.
Last month, during an episode of the “Table for Two” podcast, she announced her plan to step back from her career and focus on her daughters, Hazel (9) and Violet (7).
“It’s one of those things where people ask, ‘How do you balance it all?’ I never feel like I’m doing it perfectly, you know?” she disclosed. “But this year, I’m not working.”

“I had quite a busy year last year, and my oldest child is now 9, so we’re in the final year of single digits. And there are certain cornerstone moments in their day that are incredibly significant when they’re young,” she explained.

“And it’s like, ‘Will you wake me up? Will you take me to school? Will you pick me up? Will you put me to bed?’ And I want to be there for all of those moments for a good stretch. It’s a feeling I have deep within,” she added.
