John Krasinski Finally Lets Daughters Watch One of His Movies: ‘They Didn’t Actually Believe I Was in The Business’
By Movieguide® Contributor
John Krasinski recently revealed that he let his daughters, Hazel and Violet, watch one of his movies for the first time. So, what were their reactions?
“They loved it,” Krasinski said, referring to his role as Superman in the upcoming DC LEAGUE OF SUPER-PETS. “They were laughing very very hard. I think up until now they didn’t actually believe I was in the business, because they’ve never seen anything I’ve done.”
According to the Movieguide® review:
DC LEAGUE OF SUPER-PETS is an amusing, lively adventure full of heart and soul. Krypto loves Superman unconditionally. He’ll do anything for him. The shelter pets discover their gifts through friendship and teamwork. The movie promotes positive Christian, moral values such as sacrifice, loyalty, truth, and justice. However, SUPER-PETS has some crude potty humor, a few innuendoes, scary images, a few bleeped obscenities, and an implication that Lois Lane spends the night at Superman’s house. Finally, one scene refers to two women being “engaged.” So, MOVIEGUIDE® advises caution for older children and media-wise viewers.
As for his other movies …
“A QUIET PLACE – not yet,” Krasinski joked of his non kid-friendly roles. “JACK RYAN, things like that… nope. They were like ‘Wow, you’re not an accountant!'”
Krasinski shares his daughters with wife and actress Emily Blunt, and the girls are equally interested in their mother’s career.
“This interestingly has been the only trailer that they have watched multiple times,” Blunt shared, referring to JUNGLE CRUISE. “They are usually disinterested in seeing me on screen, but they’re really into JUNGLE CRUISE. They love the jaguar, they love DJ [costar Dwayne Johnson], they love the dynamic, they love the whole world.”
“It’s been the first thing they’re like, ‘Play it again, play it again,’ ” the actress continued. “It makes me so happy.”
Krasinski and Blunt co-starred in A QUIET PLACE, which scored them both Grace Prize® nominations.
Movieguide®’s review reads:
A QUIET PLACE keeps viewers on the edge of their seats. John Krasinski provides great direction, from his brilliant use of style to the cast’s winning performances. The simple story seamlessly transitions between thrills and emotional moments. Everything’s grounded in the positive relationships among the Abbott family. Themes of love and protection provide a refreshing, healthy depiction of family bonds. The suspense isn’t for the faint of heart. Even so, A QUIET PLACE is a strong allegory for parenting and “training a child in the way they should go.”
