Despite Blake Lively’s intention to bring love and laughter with It Ends With Us, her box office arrival has been marred with controversies. Tensions have reportedly escalated between the Gossip Girl alum and director Justin Baldoni, with rumors alleging Ryan Reynolds and Lively takeover of the PR campaign. While the creative differences have caught public attention, a source recently added an unexpected twist to the PR drama by comparing Reynolds’ involvement in the film to that of a Jesus, though not of the Marvel variety.

While the actor was previously hailed as the harbinger of box office success for what Hugh Jackman describes as a romantic comedy, this recent comment likens him to a similar force for a traditional romantic comedy.

Amid the ongoing PR controversies involving Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively, the actress revealed that Ryan Reynolds wrote the iconic rooftop scene for It Ends With Us. Fans had already speculated Reynolds’ involvement as a key factor in Baldoni stepping aside due to creative differences. However, according to a source who spoke to the Daily Mail, Reynolds’ role was essential to save the film from "disaster," since he allegedly recognized from the first read of the script that it needed a savior.

"Together with Blake, they made sure that it was not only brilliant but reflective of what this story is about, " the source told the outlet. They added that Reynolds was determined not to let the film fail for anyone, especially for his wife. Although there was no ill intent toward Baldoni, the director reportedly took it personally. The source believes that the Deadpool actor is not at fault and owes no apology, as he neither sought nor gained any credit from the situation. 

Why Amidst Historic Box Office Run, Blake Lively's 'It Ends With Us' is Facing Heavy Criticism?

Reynolds’ only goal was to see Lively’s big return to the industry succeed, and the box office results speak to his vision. Despite the source's claim that Reynolds owes nothing to anyone, the actor feels differently.

Blake Lively, author Colleen Hoover, and Ryan Reynolds have been at the center of controversy surrounding It Ends With Us, with fans speculating that the power couple hijacked the PR campaign. Though Reynolds has been called a savior rather than a saboteur, he sees his contribution as a drop in the ocean compared to Lively's sacrifices per Daily Mail.

Reynolds recognizes the sacrifices his wife has made in her career to raise their children while he pursues his own dreams. Consequently, his assistance could instead be classified as his love language, aimed at helping her dreams become a reality.
