Not only has he seen Emily Blunt’s breakout film [_The Devil Wears_ _Prada_](http://time.com/5376232/devil-wears-prada-impression/) at least [75 times](http://time.com/4464292/john-krasinski-devil-wears-prada-emily-blunt/), but he also flew to see his wife and kids every single weekend while filming _Jack Ryan_. At the Aug. 31 premiere of the new Amazon series at the U.S.S. Iowa Battleship Museum in Los Angeles, Krasinski told [_People_](https://people.com/tv/john-krasinski-flew-home-every-single-weekend-jack-ryan/) that he never misses an opportunity to spend time with his family no matter how busy he is with work. “Family for me, it’s a non-negotiable thing,” he said. “So if I’m honest, I was shooting 6,000 miles away from them, and I flew back every single weekend.” Krasinski went on to explain that Blunt and their two daughters were living in London while he was in Montreal for _Jack Ryan_. “Emily was shooting a little indie movie called [_Mary Poppins_](https://people.com/movies/emily-blunt-says-her-version-of-mary-poppins-is-hilarious-and-incredibly-rude/),” he joked. “So they were with her, and we always set up a base, and I always want the base to be with their mom, and I’ll do the flight time.” ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/5385944/emily-blunt-john-krasinski-jack-ryan/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/5385944/emily-blunt-john-krasinski-jack-ryan/"},"headline":"John Krasinski Would Fly 6,000 Miles for Emily Blunt and He Did","datePublished":"2018-09-04T15:17:28.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:54:39.516Z","description":"The Jack Ryan actor was traveling every weekend to see his wife and kids","url":"https://time.com/5385944/emily-blunt-john-krasinski-jack-ryan/","keywords":["Newsfeed","celebrities","emily blunt","John Krasinski"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blte0ef18576c6f37d0/6989395e0a4a2229969d396f/emily-blunt-john-krasinski-jack-ryan.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Megan McCluskey","jobTitle":"Staff Writer","url":"https://time.com/author/megan-mccluskey/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blte0ef18576c6f37d0/6989395e0a4a2229969d396f/emily-blunt-john-krasinski-jack-ryan.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Emily-Blunt-John-Krasinski-Jack-Ryan","caption":"Emily Blunt and John Krasinski attend an immersive fan screening of 'A Quiet Place'","creditText":"David M.
