As a result, Emily and husband, The Office star John Krasinski, along with her sister Felicity Blunt, and Tucci have become permanent hosts, since no one else dares to invite them and cook for them.
Even Emily herself feels the heat. She confessed that cooking for Tucci makes her nervous, joking that “it’s slightly nerve-wracking cooking for Stan because he’s so cheffy.”
Stanley Tucci’s graduation from an actor to a beloved food personality began with Big Night (1996), the cult classic film he co-wrote, co-directed, and starred in. The story, centered on two Italian brothers running a struggling restaurant, was a heartfelt tribute to authentic Italian cuisine and culture.
Over the years, he deepened that connection through cookbooks like The Tucci Cookbook and Taste: My Life Through Food, where he shared family recipes and personal stories. His 2021 CNN travel series Stanley Tucci: Searching for Italy made him a global culinary icon, showcasing his charm, wit, and genuine curiosity as he explored regional Italian dishes.
