Emily Blunt discusses her friendship with The Rock.
Emily Blunt and The Rock worked together on "Jungle Cruise" and are set to work together again on "Smashing Machine."
Appearing on Howard Stern, Blunt revealed that she likes to give gifts at the end of filming so celebrate what the cast and crew have accomplished. The Rock has started to returned the favor.
"He's given me lots of gifts. He and the producers got me this beautiful ring that I love at the end of the press tour. He sends me endless tequila. He sends me a lot of sports gear," she said.
When Stern noted that Rock gave her tickets to WrestleMania XL, Blunt replied, "I watched it at home. I did not go watch it live. I wanted to, but I felt....I had never watched him wrestle. My brother was obsessed with WWE growing up. It is one of those surreal moments where I remember that as a kid, walking into our TV room and my brother is mainlining The Rock, and then I'm working with him years later. It's wild."
Rock competed in his first advertised match in 11 years at WrestleMania XL, teaming with Roman Reigns to face Cody Rhodes & Seth Rollins at night one.
The Rock has teased continuing his story with Cody Rhodes, but for now is preparing for "The Smashing Machine" where he will play Mark Kerr.
