John Krasinski's Heart ‘Shattered’ When His Kids Asked ‘Are We Going to Be Okay?’ During Pandemic (Exclusive)

John Krasinski says his heart 'shattered' when his kids asked 'are we going to be okay?' during the COVID-19 pandemic. Krasinski shares his daughters Hazel and Violet with wife Emily Blunt.

Krasinski, who shares his girls Hazel, 10, and Violet, 7, with wife Emily Blunt, explains that he got the idea for this movie during the pandemic when his kids started playing fewer imaginary games. “Hazel’s a very empathetic soul, and we were making s’mores one night, and her marshmallow burst into flames as they tend to do, and she was so destroyed that she had hurt some sort of creature,” continues Krasinski. Though his girls were ultimately fans, Krasinski said that there was added pressure "because I made it for them, completely and entirely about their magical world, so this is one I can't screw up."
