It Ends With Us: Colleen Hoover Confused by Blake Lively Style Critics

As I delve deeper into the intriguing world of movie casting announcements, I find myself awestruck by the transformative journeys these talented individuals embark upon for their craft. Justin, a familiar face from our beloved Yellowstone spinoff 1923, has taken on an entirely new role in this upcoming film adaptation of Lisa Taddeo’s best-selling book. Not only did he chop off his long locks to embody Ryle’s clean-cut look, but he also hit the gym and embraced a newfound social media presence, all in a week’s time!


Colleen Hoover is putting an end to the uproar.

As a devoted fan and follower of the author of “It Ends With Us“, I’m eager to address a common concern that has been circulating regarding the film adaptation, which hit theaters on August 9th. One question that has been raised is about the costumes worn by our beloved star, Blake Lively. To put any doubts to rest, I can confirm that the author himself has taken steps to ensure that the costume choices were well thought out and true to the spirit of the novel. So, fellow fans, let’s appreciate the hard work that went into bringing this story to life on the big screen!

She shared with TopMob News that she didn’t give much weight to it because she understood they were unaware of the context behind the photos.

According to the 44-year-old, what the fans were observing through paparazzi photos was merely a part of the storyline being shot with Blake’s character Lily Bloom, not the entire picture.

Nonetheless, fans expressed strong disapproval over Blake’s eccentric costumes characterized by patchwork jackets and loose attire.

She went on to say, “They couldn’t be present for the filming, but I was genuinely thrilled seeing how passionate everyone was about it.”

However, Colleen admitted to feeling a bit puzzled by the critics’ comments, since she hadn’t described Lily’s clothing in the book, leading her to wonder, “How can they know what Lily would wear?”

Nevertheless, it moved her deeply that her companions had become so emotionally attached to the book to express such passionate opinions regarding the clothing.

She expressed her affection for it, saying, “They had such an energetic vibe that I adored. Their passion was captivating, and I appreciate that they cared deeply enough to feel anger about it.”

As a devoted admirer, I’ve always found myself reluctant to justify it, as the fervor expressed in those remarks brought me immense joy.

I am genuinely excited for you all to witness “It Ends With Us,” a captivating production where, aside from Blake, stars Justin Baldoni from “Jane the Virgin” as Lily Bloom’s boyfriend Ryle, and Brandon Skenlar from “1923” completes the heart-wrenching love triangle as Atlas Corrigan.

I’d like to clarify something for you all. As a devoted admirer of the original story, I must share that when transitioning the book to the big screen, our talented creative team, led by Justin in his role as director, made some changes along the way.

In her explanation to TopMob News, she noted that with each modification, it’s necessary for things to evolve. Essentially, when you aim to summarize a lengthy narrative into a movie, adjustments must be made to improve its continuity.

Fortunately, she believes that readers won’t find the variations overly distressing, particularly the decision to mature the characters, enabling them to cast Blake for the part.

In the cast, Blake isn’t alone in altering her hairstyle for a character; Justin also opted to cut his long locks before filming, to portray Ryle with a clean-cut appearance. Justin shared a video on Instagram on April 15, detailing his haircut, and mentioned that he was donating his hair to Locks of Love.

Apart from getting a new hairstyle, Justin also shared that he has been working out at the gym. He captioned an April 17 gym selfie as “A lot of change in one week.” In his own words, he trimmed his hair, started consuming carbs, and is now seeking approval from internet users by posting pictures meant to attract attention. But he’s unsure if this counts as a “thirst trap,” so he looked it up online. He jokingly added, “Don’t google thirst trap.”

Following the news break, Brandon expressed his feelings on Instagram regarding his new role in the film.

“Upon encountering this project, I hadn’t previously known about this influential book and its global impact on empowering women to transform their lives. This topic resonates deeply with me, as I’ve come across countless women who have experienced abuse. Our aim is for the movie to carry forward the life-changing message of this book, inspiring women to feel empowered and encouraging men to strive for improvement. I consider it a privilege to be involved in such a project.”
