The captivating spark that once crackled between Blake Lively and Anna Kendrick in A Simple Favor has long since dimmed, leaving behind only the faintest echo of intrigue. Another Simple Favor was meant to reignite that allure, yet it has languished in the shadows of indecision and Justin Baldoni's ongoing controversies. Meanwhile, It Ends with Us may have been eclipsed by the drama, but the chaos continues to swirl, proving that even a tangled mess can still rake in the spoils of success.

The buzz around the May 1st trailer for Another Simple Favor quickly soured, as Blake Lively’s involvement has split her fanbase. The fallout from It Ends with Us continues to haunt her, with the ongoing drama between her and Justin Baldoni escalating into legal claims. Rather than fading, the controversy only deepened, turning what should have been a comeback into a public battleground, intensifying the already volatile situation.

The film, adapted from Colleen Hoover's best-selling novel, was expected to soar. With Blake Lively headlining as Lily Bloom, the movie had star appeal, and Justin Baldoni wore multiple hats as actor, producer, and director. While it was a box-office success, its lasting legacy might be a bitter legal dispute between the co-stars. According to journalist Peter Kiefer, the set was marred by odd behavior and troubling comments from Baldoni and producers, which raised eyebrows amidst Hollywood's increasingly strict on-set expectations.

The announcement of Another Simple Favor's trailer release, originally anticipated with enthusiasm, has instead been met with harsh criticism, leaving fans disappointed and divided over the unexpected turn of events.

Blake Lively has long delivered standout performances throughout her career, but her ongoing legal clash with Justin Baldoni has now become a public spectacle. The latest chapter includes Baldoni's lawsuit and Lively's new testimony, fueling the already explosive drama. The recent announcement of Another Simple Favor only intensified the backlash, leaving fans divided and the controversy swirling. Some even declared, "We will not be watching".

Fans were not happy with the sequel in any way. Some even went on to say things like, "Ew Blake Lively." It seems like the entire fiasco with Justin Baldoni has resulted in nothing but sheer hate for the once-adored actress. 

The trailer announcement for Another Simple Favor has sparked a whirlwind of mixed reactions. While some fans are boycotting due to Blake Lively’s involvement, others are eagerly anticipating the return of what they see as a potential cinematic gem. Adding fuel to the fire, the rumored tensions between Lively and Anna Kendrick only make the situation more intriguing. Only time will reveal the film's fate, but early signs suggest that Lively’s presence might be the very thing keeping fans from hitting play.
