It's art imitating life!

Emily Blunt is the latest star to join the upcoming animated film Animal Crackers, according to Variety. The 32-year-old actress will be playing the wife of real-life husband John Krasinski. The cute couple will voice the parts of Zoe and John, a hubby and wife duo "whose family life is turned upside down when they inherit a rundown circus and a mysterious box of Animal Crackers, which magically changes the person who eats them into animals."

Scott Christian Sava and Tony Bancroft are set to co-direct the movie.

In addition to Blunt and Krasinski, the Animal Crackers cast already includes Sylvester Stallone, Ian McKellen and Danny DeVito.

Animal Crackers will be Blunt and Krasinski's first feature film together. We can already imagine just how cute the twosome will be as cartoon husband and wife!

In other John Krasinski news, the 35-year-old actor took to Twitter last week to share a nostalgic photo from the beginning of The Office. "Man, 10 years ago today... This happened!" he wrote with an on-set snapshot of him and co-stars Steve Carell, B.J. Novak, Jenna Fischer and Rainn Wilson.
