The 35-year-old actress also recently told ET her thoughts on revisiting 'The Devil Wears Prada.'

Emily Blunt may be heading back to Edge of Tomorrow. 

During a recent interview with IndieWire, the 35-year-old actress revealed that a sequel to the 2014 film was in the works -- and that Tom Cruise asked her to come back for the movie just as she was heading off to play Mary Poppins. 

“It’s a lot for all the stars to align for everyone to be free at the same time and available to do it at the same time,” Blunt said. “They asked me to do [it] two months before I started Mary Poppins. Tom was like, ‘Can you go this autumn?’ and I was like, ‘No, I can’t go, I’m playing Mary Poppins for like a year, dude! I can’t do Edge of Tomorrow.'”

After shooting Mary Poppins Returns, Blunt went off to shoot A Quiet Place with her husband, John Krasinski, while Cruise filmed another Mission: Impossible. Blunt, however, is hoping she'll be able to make Edge of Tomorrow 2 fit in. 

“[Director] Doug Liman has got an awesome idea and he’s excited and they just need to write it,” she said. “There has been a script, but now I gather there’s another one in the works."

The mother of two is also open to the idea of revisiting The Devil Wears Prada. See what she told ET in the video below.
