The sequel to the highly successful film 'It Ends With Us', which grossed over $200 million globally, is facing significant production challenges due to a reported rift between co-stars and co-producers Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni. The conflict appears to have originated from their absence at each other's promotional events and further escalated when Lively allegedly commissioned a separate edit of the film and involved her husband, Ryan Reynolds, in writing a key scene without Baldoni's knowledge. Accusations of inappropriate behavior and undermining contributions have also been made by Lively against Baldoni. Despite Baldoni's willingness to step back from directing the sequel, the strained relationship casts doubt on the project's future. Industry insiders suggest that the bad blood between the two is real and irreparable, making their collaboration on the sequel highly unlikely.
