Pleasant Off-Camera
Of course, Streep’s method acting on the set of The Devil Wears Prada is a far cry from this. Despite her physical isolation from her co-stars, they all understood why she was acting the way she was, and none of them disapproved. In fact, her off-camera friendliness and pleasantness have been the subject of some anecdotes.
A Lovely Person
On the show Sunday Today in 2018, Emily Blunt commented, “There was this crazy moment when I [finished] and I remember seeing [Streep] across the parking lot. She burst out of her trailer – the wig was off. She was just Meryl. She was in a puffy jacket. She was like, ‘You were so great,’ and I was just like [crying] and I just started to weep. It was sad.”
