Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni Spark Rumors of On-Set Tension Over It Ends With Us

by

As a dedicated fan who has followed Blake Lively’s career since her days as Serena van der Woodsen on Gossip Girl, I must say that the recent speculations about a potential rift between her and Justin Baldoni, her co-star and director in It Ends With Us, have me slightly concerned.

There’s speculation that Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni, the leads in It Ends With Us, may have experienced some sort of disagreement or estrangement. This assumption arises from Baldoni’s absence at their joint press events, the lack of group cast photos taken at the New York premiere, and Lively not following him on Instagram.

Am I hyped about “As It Ends With Us” setting the stage for an incredible debut? Absolutely! But here’s the scoop that has me and many other fans buzzing on TikTok: Some folks are speculating if there might be a bit of tension between our beloved lead actress/producer, Lively, and her co-star/director, Baldoni. Can’t help but wonder what the truth is behind this intriguing rumor!

It was noticed promptly by fans that Justin Baldoni, along with Colleen Hoover (formerly of Gossip Girl) and other individuals associated with the movie, are not among those who follow him on Instagram.

In earlier times, Hoover and Baldoni were frequently spotted together on social media while the movie was being filmed. However, this current situation is markedly distinct from that.

There’s been more talk about it since Lively shared at the film premiere that Ryan Reynolds played a role in a crucial scene. Later, sources from The Hollywood Reporter verified that he mainly provided dialogue for this part, but due to his involvement in other projects, he couldn’t contribute much to the movie-making process overall.

In her capacity as a producer, she significantly influenced the movie’s developmental path. According to reports, she herself asked Shane Reid, known for editing Deadpool and Wolverine as well as directing Taylor Swift’s music video for “I Bet You Think About Me,” to create another version of the film.

A different resource refuted the allegations of discord, stating that numerous edits are common during post-processing, and ultimately, to his knowledge, everyone settled on a single version after agreeing on it.

Contrary to some speculations, it’s anticipated that Blake Lively’s film “It Ends With Us” will prove financially profitable. Estimates suggest the opening weekend earnings could reach approximately $23 million, which is significantly higher than its production budget of $25 million.
