The 35-year-old actor has taken on the iconic role in Disney's latest film "Mary Poppins Returns", which is a direct sequel to the 1964 original.

In an interview with CBS, Blunt said like most superhero films, "Mary Poppins Return" should also get a sequel.

She also described the character as "completely bizarre and unknowable".

Directed by Rob Marshall, "Mary Poppins Returns" also features Lin-Manuel Miranda, Ben Whishaw, Emily Mortimer and Julie Walters.
