Based on Darcey Bell’s book of the same name, A Simple Favor told the tale of a small-town vlogger who finds herself wrapped up in an investigation involving her mysterious rich friend. Paul Feig directed the first film, and he’s returning to helm the sequel, while Jessica Sharzer came back to write the script.

A Simple Favor 2 will also feature many familiar faces in front of the camera. Kendrick and Lively will return in the lead roles, and they won’t be alone. The film’s supporting cast includes the original cast members Henry Golding, Andrew Rannells, Bashir Salahuddin, Joshua Satine, Ian Ho, and Kelly McCormack.

Stephanie Smothers (Kendrick) and Emily Nelson (Lively) will head to Capri, Italy for their next adventure. Emily’s getting ready to host an extravagant wedding to a rich Italian businessman, but the film’s official logline promises “more twists and turns than the road from the Marina Grande to the Capri town square”, with murder and betrayal awaiting those who dare to RSVP.

It Ends with Us centers on Lily Bloom, who believes she finally found the love of her life in the brilliant neurosurgeon Ryle Kincaid. Their relationship is put in jeopardy after her high school love sweetheart, Atlas Corrigan, comes back into the picture.

Blake Lively will lead the film in the role of Lily Bloom, while Sklenar will join her as Atlas Corrigan. Jane the Virgin actor Justin Baldoni was previously cast as Ryle Kincaid, and he’ll also direct the film, based on the script by Christy Hall.

Lively and Baldoni are also coming on board as executive producers, along with Steve Sarowitz, Andrew Calof, and Colleen Hoover. Saks Picture Company’s Alex Saks and Wayfarer Studios’ Jamey Heath will produce on behalf of their respective studios.

Brandon Sklenar’s star is currently on the rise thanks to his breakout role on the Yellowstone prequel series 1923. His credits also include the Paramount+ series The Offer and the films Midway and Karen.

It Ends with Us was published in 2016 and it draws inspiration from the relationship between Hoover’s parents. It follows a young woman named Lily, as she tries to start her life after college and develops a relationship with a gorgeous neurosurgeon Ryle, despite still being haunted by her first love Atlas, who suddenly reappears in her life.

It Ends with Us debuted at No. 1 on The New York Times best sellers list and inspired the equally successful sequel It Starts with Us, which came out in 2022. Hoover will be involved in the book’s adaptation as an executive producer, alongside Lively and Baldoni.

This project has been in development since 2019 when Jane the Virgin star Baldoni secured the rights for the novel through his Wayfarer Entertainment company. In addition to playing one of the lead roles alongside Lively, Baldoni will also direct the project, after stepping behind the camera with such films as Clouds and Five Feet Apart.

A Simple Favor is centered on a small-town mommy blogger Stephanie (Kendrick), who takes it upon herself to solve the disappearance of her new mysterious and elegant friend Emily (Lively) after she goes missing. As she starts digging deeper into Emily’s secrets, she discovers that her perfect life isn’t what it seems.

A Simple Favor received critical acclaim and became a box office hit, earning $97 million worldwide on a $20 million budget. In addition to Lively and Kendrick, it also starred Henry Golding, Andrew Rannells, Linda Cardellini, Rupert Friend, and Jean Smart, but it’s still unclear if any of the supporting stars will return for the sequel. Paul Feig is returning to direct, while Jessica Sharzer is writing the screenplay.

Kendrick most recently starred in the HBO Max series Love Life and we’ll soon get to see her in Alice, Darling. As for Lively, she didn’t take any acting roles since The Rhythm Section in 2020 and is currently gearing up to make her directorial debut with Seconds for Searchlight.

A glance at the Free Guy actor’s IMDb profile will show that he has starred in at least one production every single year since 1993. Not to mention the 12 projects he has coming up!

So when the 45-year-old says he’s taking a break, we don’t blame him. 

Since July, Reynolds has been working on the holiday film Spirited in which he stars opposite Will Ferrell. Now that it’s complete, he shared an update on Instagram.

“That’s a wrap for me on Spirited. Not sure I’d have been ready to say yes to a film this challenging even three years ago,” the Canadian wrote about the Apple TV+ feature. “Perfect time for a little sabbatical from movie making. I’m gonna miss every second working with this obscenely gifted group of creators and artists.”

Ryan and his wife Blake Lively are famous for teasing each other on social media, so naturally, The Rhythm Sectionactress left a comment saying, “Michael Caine did it first” in reference to her husband’s “retirement announcement”.

The 32-year-old actress will star in Dark Days at the Magna Carta. 

The rights to the post-apocalyptic thriller have been acquired by Netflix and it’s being developed at the streamer as a trilogy. 

In addition to starring, Lively is also set to produce alongside Stranger Things EP Shawn Levy.

Per Variety, Dark Days at the Magna Carta is set amid a catastrophic event and centering on a woman going to extreme lengths to survive and save her family. 

The actress, best known or her role on Gossip Girl, most recently starred in The Rhythm Section. Her film credits include The Age of Adeline, The Shallows and A Simple Favor.

The movie was scheduled to go on screens on February 22 but its release date was moved back to the pre-thanksgiving weekend – November 22. Now, the date has been moved back again to January 31, 2020.  

The movie, directed by Reed Morano, follows Lively as a woman whose family dies in a plane crash on a flight she was supposed to be on, who is set on proving to the world that the crash was not an accident but a terror attack that is being covered by intelligence agencies. She becomes an assassin and begins to track down the ones responsible for the incident.

The production of the movie was halted for several months following a hand injury of the star. It is possible that the reason for the new release date can be found in the movies that were set to compete with him in the holiday slot – especially Frozen 2. Now the movie will screen opposite United Artists’ Gretel and Hansel.

The couple — who are the king and queen of trolling each other on social media — have been married since 2012 and are parents to 4-year-old James and 2-year-old Inez.

James may still be in the throes of toddlerhood but she has already made a name for herself. Her mom, Blake, is good friends with Delicate singer Taylor Swift, with the A Simple Favour actress last year agreeing to allow James’s voice to be featured on the 28-year-old’s album, Reputation.

So when the pair attended Taylor’s concert in Massachusetts and Gorgeous was played, they became the cutest parents alive.
