Emily Blunt recently discussed her Devil Wears Prada costar, Anne Hathaway, and how she’s moving on from recent personal trials.

“She puts pressure on herself, but I think she’s at a point where she can breathe and discover her whole bag of tricks,” Blunt told W magazine. “She has this newfound sense of confidence, and as her friend, that’s very exciting to see.”

Blunt added that the process of filming Rachel Getting Married, which Hathaway was in Toronto promoting at the International Film Festival, also aided in helping the actress get to where she is now.

Anne Hathaway (Rachel Getting Married) is the Oscar talk of the town. “This is the performance I always knew I wanted to give, the sort of world I always dreamed of being in,” she said, adding that this film goes way beyond The Devil Wears Prada and The Princess Diaries and into “deep human emotions.” Without a boyfriend to escort her, Hathaway was ushered down the red carpet by her mom and dad. “OK,” she admitted, “I’m adorkable.”

The first time Maggie spoke, it was just one word (“Daddy”), and Elizabeth Taylor did the honors. This time, Maggie is saying a bunch of words, and another film icon has lent her pipes to the cause: Jodie Foster (pictured, left). In an episode of The Simpsons slated to air in early 2009, she voices an adult version of Maggie. (The episode, “Four Great Women & A Manicure,” reimagines the worlds of Macbeth, The Fountainhead, Citizen Kane, and Queen Elizabeth I, with Springfield residents in key roles.)

Meanwhile, Anne Hathaway will grace a different early-2009 installment, “The Good, the Sad and the Drugly.” She plays a sweet, charitable girl whom Bart falls for — so hard, in fact, that he becomes a good Samaritan to win her affection. When she discovers the truth about Bart, though, she breaks up with him and he reverts to his devious ways. The Simpsons returns to Fox for season 20 on Sept. 28.
