Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni are the two main actors in the upcoming film It Ends With Us. Recently, photos surfaced of the two engaged in what appeared to be a heated discussion while filming in New Jersey. These photos, taken in January, have resurfaced amidst rumors of a feud between the two stars.
In the movie, Blake plays the lead role of Lily Bloom, opposite Justin as antagonist Ryle Kincaid. Their characters enter into a relationship, but soon things take a dark turn as Lily is reminded of her own traumatic past with her parents' abusive relationship. The situation becomes even more complicated when her first love, Atlas Corrigan, re-enters her life.
Not only are Blake and Justin the stars of the film, but they are also involved behind the scenes. Justin, who is also a director, and Blake, who served as a producer, are both passionate about bringing the highly-anticipated adaptation of Colleen Hoover's bestselling BookTok sensation to life.
In a recent photo taken on set, Justin can be seen directing Blake as she pushes a young girl on a swing. This has only added to the speculation of tension between the two stars. Fans have also noticed that Justin has not been seen with his co-stars during promotional events, and he has not participated in press interviews with them.
One TikTok user pointed out that Justin follows most of the cast and crew on Instagram, but they do not follow him back except for a few, such as comedian Hasan Minhaj. Another video has also been circulating on social media, showing a tense conversation between Justin and Blake on a separate day of filming.
Despite all the rumors and speculation, neither Blake nor Justin has commented on the situation. During the movie's premiere, the cast avoided answering direct questions about Justin. However, actor Jenny Slate did describe his role as "intense" and quickly shifted the focus back to herself. Blake has also avoided discussing Justin in interviews, but author Colleen Hoover did praise him as a "truly kind person" in a comment to Variety.
In an interview, Justin spoke highly of working with Blake, calling her an "all-encompassing creative" who makes everything she touches better. He also mentioned that she gave the performance of a lifetime in the film. When asked if he would return for a potential adaptation of the sequel, It Starts With Us, Justin suggested that Blake would be a great fit to direct.
Beyond the behind-the-scenes drama, the film has also faced criticism for allegedly glamorizing abusive relationships. Justin addressed these concerns in an interview, assuring audiences that they were very intentional in the making of the movie.
Despite all the controversy, It Ends With Us had a successful opening weekend at the box office, earning an estimated $50 million. As for the rumored feud between Blake and Justin, only time will tell if there is any truth behind it.
