We've seen Stanley Tucci's acting skills over the years, and his cocktail making skills from Instagram, but Emily Blunt recently revealed some of her brother-in-law's other impressive feats. Blunt told People that Tucci is "a great drummer" and "a beautiful painter," and perhaps the most unexpected of all, she said he is "weirdly flexible." Blunt added that he has "a leg lift that rivals Jane Fonda's." Who knew? She also said, "He's an all-around renaissance man who knows the way to everyone's hearts. And it's through having a damn good time."

Tucci is currently starring in the CNN food and travel show "Stanley Tucci: Searching for Italy," in which he travels around Italy sampling dishes, meeting chefs and farmers, and looking at Italy's history and culture through its food (via CNN). Tucci had previously been left unable to eat in 2017 after being diagnosed with a cancerous tumor at the base of his tongue (per People). He credits his wife for helping him make it through chemotherapy, telling People that her "undying attention, affection and encouragement got me through it."

Now, who's ready to see that leg lift?
