Can Ryan Reynolds Rescue Blake Lively’s Fate in “It Ends With Us” Without Justin Baldoni? Actor Reveals his Thoughts
Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni are reportedly having issues surrounding the release of their film, It Ends With Us. The movie premiered on August 9 and has been embroiled in controversy ever since. After weeks of speculation, Ryan Reynolds has offered to buy out Baldoni’s stake in the franchise to ensure his wife’s future in the series without working with Baldoni.
A source close to the couple revealed, “Ryan is willing to offer a significant sum to Justin Baldoni to buy out his stake in the It Ends With Us series so Blake can continue her role without any conflicts.” They added, “This is Blake’s most significant film to date, and Ryan wants to ensure she remains a part of the sequel.”
If the reports are true, the sequel to It Ends With Us will be produced by Reynolds, whose previous movie clashed with Lively’s latest release.
