Emily Blunt

This is one very strong actress, but for some reason, when people think of Emily Blunt they think of The Devil Wears Prada (which she was great in), her husband John Krasinski and maybe the fact that she's British. Seldom do people know that she's been nominated for five Golden Globes, and has actually won one. Nor do they credit her for her topnotch movie choices in recent years, or even her uncanny knack for accents. She's proven that she can do dramatic roles (The Young Victoria), romantic comedies (The Five Year Engagement) and be a butt-kicking action star (Looper, Edge of Tomorrow, Sicario) -- so what's it going to take for critics to really take notice?
