'Mary Poppins Returns' and so does the bright and sunny Emily Blunt we have been missing since 'The Girl on the Train'

Emily Blunt as Mary Poppins is a sure treat for her fans because watching her writhing in pain in both 'The Girl on the Train' and 'A Quiet Place' is not something we enjoyed
PUBLISHED NOV 22, 2018

"The magic always returns," promises the trailer for the upcoming, highly anticipated reboot of Mary Poppins, starring Emily Blunt and let us just say, we are really glad to have her playing lighthearted, slice of life roles, after two back to back dark, gritty portrayals in the films 'The Girl on the Train,' and 'A Quiet Place'!

With the film releasing this December 19, the recent trailer and sneak peek into the upcoming Disney adaptation of the Julie Andrews starrer classic is reminiscent in more than just the film's context. Especially with Blunt playing the titular role, it is a flashback of her works in the past. Like the no-nonsense magazine assistant in 'Devil Wears Prada,' and of course - her musical skills that come as a trait of the character in the upcoming film - reminding viewers of her role in 'Into the Woods' where the same skills were on full display.
