Emily Blunt: 'I want to make a movie about a stutterer'
By Andre Rhoden-PaulBBC News
" I would absolutely love to make A Movie about a stutterer, " actress Emily Blunt has told The Bbc .
The Oppenheimer actress, who struggled with stuttering as child, said she wanted to " destigmatise" and increase understanding about the condition.
" The emotional trauma of living with the inability to speak will limit you in ways, that are for someone who speaks fluently, pretty unimaginable, " She Said .
" There's so much Shame about it. "
Speaking r, the Mary Poppins Returns star said the condition had left her unable to speak as a child.
She credits the confidence she gained from acting in school plays, something she was encouraged to do by A Teacher , with helping her to overcome her stutter.
Speaking to presenter Clare Mcdonnell , She Said : " There's so much Shame about it because there's not enough information it's neurological. People really deem it psychological. So you're sort of deemed off-putting or unconvincing in order to get a job, or anything like that. "
Neurological relates to conditions affecting The Brain , Spinal Cord or nerves, while a psychological condition relates to an issue affecting someone's mental state.
" So as long as we can keep destigmatising it, then there wont be so much Shame - it can Just Be more acceptable - because I think it is one trait that is easily bullied still. "
Speaking on how if affects her now, She Said : " I'll always be one, I'm probably unaware of how much I flip-flop words around to substitute ones that are easier to Say . .
" Certain environments will still create a struggle for me - if someone asks me to pitch them anything it's A Nightmare .
" But I did sort of grow out of it. "
More Than 80 million people internationally stutter, according to the US-based Stuttering Foundation.
Stuttering is relatively common in childhood and can persist into adulthood, and it is not possible to Say , according to the NHS.
This year Blunt portrayed The Wife of J. Robert Oppenheimer in the biographical blockbuster about the physicist's role in developing The First nuclear weapons.
