Emily Blunt<\/a> would love to “make a movie about a stutterer”.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Emily Blunt wants to help destigmatise the condition<\/p>\n

The 40-year-old actress struggled with stuttering as child and she’s now keen to help “destigmatise” the speech disorder.<\/p>\n

Emily told BBC Radio Four’s ‘Woman’s Hour’: “The emotional trauma of living with the inability to speak will limit you in ways, that are for someone who speaks fluently, pretty unimaginable.<\/p>\n

“There’s so much shame about it.”<\/p>\n

Emily believes there’s a lot of misinformation that continues to surround the condition.<\/p>\n

\nShe shared: “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.”<\/p>\n

\nEmily has enjoyed huge success during her acting career, but she continues to “struggle” with the condition.<\/p>\n

\nThe London-born star 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…<\/p>\n

\n“Certain environments will still create a struggle for me – if someone asks me to pitch them anything it’s a nightmare.<\/p>\n

\n“But I did sort of grow out of it.”<\/p>\n

\nEmily previously explained that acting has actually helped her to overcome her struggles.<\/p>\n

\nThe ‘Devil Wears Prada’ star – who is married to actor John Krasinski – told PEOPLE: “I wouldn’t say that’s why I’ve ventured into acting, but it was just a bit shocking the first time I was able to speak, you know, doing a silly voice or an accent pretending to be someone else.<\/p>\n

\n“People don’t talk about [it] enough if it hasn’t got enough exposure, and millions of people around the world struggle with it.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
