The Devil Wears Prada actress, long rumored to be playing the love interest in director Mark Romanek’s re-imagining of the classic Lon Chaney Jr. horror film The Wolf Man (with a script supplied by Se7en writer Andrew Kevin Walker), confirmed that, yes, she is definitely on board as the object of Benicio Del Toro’s lupine lust.

Blunt also expressed a great deal of enthusiasm about the project in general. “I don’t really love horror, but I love those two guys [Mark Romanek and Benicio del Toro] and that’s why I want to do it,” she explains.

“It’s a great script, as well as very smart and dark…It’s gonna be scary. I think it will have quite a gothic edge and I hope people like it.”
