Actress Blake Lively recently revealed some insights into the creative process behind the movie 'It Ends With Us,' shedding light on a disagreement over a song choice. During an interview with Hits Radio UK, Lively mentioned that there were creative differences regarding the inclusion of the song 'Cherry' by Lana Del Rey in the film. She hinted at being urged to remove the song, as it was deemed too emotionally charged for a particular scene.
Lively explained that the song clashed with the storyline at a point where the relationship between her character Lily Bloom and her love interest Ryle, played by Justin Baldoni, was still stable. She emphasized that the introduction of another character, Atlas, brought in conflict and tension, which required a different musical tone.
The actress elaborated on the emotional complexity of the characters, highlighting the impact of past connections and unresolved feelings. She expressed her desire for the song to enhance the portrayal of inner turmoil and conflicting emotions within the storyline.
Speculation surrounding a rumored feud between Lively and Baldoni arose due to their absence from joint promotional activities for the movie. Reports suggested that tensions on set may have been exacerbated by Baldoni's alleged behavior, creating a challenging working environment for the cast.
Furthermore, claims surfaced that Baldoni made Lively uncomfortable about her postpartum body during filming, following the birth of her son with husband Ryan Reynolds. Sources indicated that the overall experience of working with Baldoni was less than favorable for the entire cast.
Despite these rumors, representatives for both Lively and Baldoni have not yet addressed the speculations or provided any official statements regarding the alleged discord. The behind-the-scenes dynamics of 'It Ends With Us' continue to intrigue fans and industry observers alike, adding a layer of intrigue to the movie's production.
