"And this one, I was just watching them in their playroom, disappearing into this magical world that parents aren't allowed to go to. And I just thought that it would be an amazing movie to make. It's about their world."

The film stars Krasinksi alongside Cailey Fleming and Ryan Reynolds and follows the story of a young girl who, after going through a difficult experience, learns she can see everyone's imaginary friends, known as IFs, who have been left behind after their creators became adults.

Krasinski, who recently directed and starred in the horror films A Quiet Place and A Quiet Place II alongside Blunt, is thrilled to share his new work with his kids.

"I needed to show my kids that I do something, because they couldn't watch A Quiet Place," Krasinski said.

When his kids do watch it, it is sure to be a whole family affair with Blunt also making a cameo in the children's film playing the voice of Unicorn.

Other high profile actors including Steve Carell, Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Awkwafina have leant their voices to the new film which arrives in cinemas on May 16.
