It ends with us has had quite a rollercoaster ride since its release Cinema program 2024. The Book-to-film adaptation by Colleen Hoover’s popular but controversial novel was met with its own drama and mediocre reviews. However, some viewers really like it and the film did well at the box office. With all that being said, I want them to make the sequel. It starts with usinto a film.

It’s hard to forget the viral It Ends With Us drama

When this film came out, the speculation and discourse about a possible drama between Blake Lively, who played the main character Lily, and the director and Ryle actor Justin Baldoni went viral.

People were suspicious because Baldoni wasn’t pictured with other cast members at the premiere. There have been rumors that Ryan Reynolds was reportedly in a key scene (that of… Screenwriter Christy Hall knew nothing about it), a second cut of the film is commissionedand much more. It took over the internet for a few weeks and new rumors started making the rounds.

Notably, Lively and Baldoni have not directly commented on the situation, although reports suggest they have gossip Girl star was “pretty surprised” by the story. The only person who can do that The source of the rumors was Brandon Sklenarthe Atlas played. That being said, there are still a lot of questions about what happened behind the scenes, and when you combine that with the mixed reception the film got, it doesn’t make for the best impression.

It ends up getting extremely mixed reactions from critics and audiences

As I wrote in mine Review by It ends with us“for better or worse, it is a faithful adaptation of the book” on which it is based. Critics had it too mixed reactions to the Blake Lively filmwhich is clearly expressed by its share of 56% “Rotten Tomatoes” Tomato knife.

The tone is difficult to balance as it is a love story that tells the story of an abusive relationship and generational trauma. In addition, there is also a touch of second chance romance. All in all, this makes for a difficult story.

While the critics didn’t like it, the audience probably did. Based on over 5,000 fan reviews, the film has a 90 percent rating on the Popcorn Meter. I can also confirm this fan love. When I saw It ends with us In the cinema I sat next to two women who knew nothing about the story. However, I mentioned that I had already seen the film at a press screening and we chatted a bit beforehand about what was to come. After the film, they turned to me with tears in their eyes and noted how much they loved the film.

Plus, It ends with us The theatrical release was impressive as it grossed $350.8 million worldwide and $148.5 million domestically against a budget of $25 million. So despite the drama, fans came to this film… As someone who has read and seen both books A box office success, I think It starts with us should happen.

I would like to see them make it with us

Despite all of this, and taking into account both the good and the bad opinions, I still think they should make it It starts with us. The book picks up right where the first left off – Lily and Atlas meet long after she broke up with Ryle – and focuses on the healing process and development of their relationship.

Overall, it’s a sweet story that shows Lily after her relationship with Ryle and rekindling her relationship with Atlas. It’s a solid sequel to the first story, it shows us a lot more of Lily and Atlas as adults, and I think it would make a good movie too.

So far nothing has been given the green light, said Justin Baldoni Blake Lively would be a good director for it, and he declared that he would stick to it working with her and Ryan Reynolds again “If they had me.” Plus, while the A simple favor The actress has not commented on a possible sequel. Brandon Sklenar said he would like to play Atlas again. That’s also good news, because his character plays a much larger role in the sequel.

Personally I liked it It starts with us It was also more than the first book and provided a great conclusion to Lily’s story.

So here’s hoping we get to see it on screen one day and that it can be produced and released with less alleged drama. In the meantime, you can stream now It ends with us with a Netflix subscription and get the book it’s based on and its sequel novel, It starts with uswherever you get your books.
