The chatter about Blake Lively‘s court case with Justin Baldoni in Hollywood is stirring up quite a fuss. This, coupled with whispers of additional disputes between Blake Lively and others in the industry, has sparked intrigue and debate among social media users.
One widely circulated theory proposed that the follow-up to the film “A Simple Favor” was cancelled because of off-camera disagreements between Blake Lively and her co-star, Anna Kendrick. However, director Paul Feig, known for his work on “Ghostbusters” (2016), is dismissing such speculation.
Feig stated on X, in response to a report, “This information appears to be entirely false.” He apologized, but clarified that the film has already been completed and will be released shortly. He advised against trusting rumors circulating on social media these days.
Feig further clarified that delays in announcing a release date are standard industry practice.
I regret to inform you that there have been some misleading rumors circulating about our upcoming movie release. Rest assured, it is indeed in its final stages and will be released shortly. Please disregard any speculations you may encounter on social media.

He explained, “You’re referring to the film-making process, but that term is actually post-production. This phase can take at least six months or more when you consider editing, adding music, special effects, sound mixing, subtitles, and quality checks. Our plan has always been to complete everything by mid-January. Movies aren’t released immediately after they’re finished because studios spend a year deciding the optimal release date. We’ve always aimed for a spring or summer launch this year. That’s how movies typically work. I trust this clarifies your question.
Reports about Blake Lively’s Hollywood disputes seem to emerge at a time when people are paying close attention to her ongoing legal dispute with Justin Baldoni. This high-profile case, which involves accusations of sexual harassment and a smear campaign, has intrigued both Hollywood insiders and gossip enthusiasts. Last year, Lively filed a lawsuit against Baldoni for these alleged actions, while he denies the claims, asserting that Lively deliberately planned to tarnish his reputation by filing a lawsuit against The New York Times.
The ongoing lawsuits have unveiled communications like text messages, emails, and the chaotic scenes behind the scenes during the making of the 2024 film adaptation of Colleen Hoover’s bestselling novel “It Ends with Us“, where both Lively and Baldoni appeared. The messages obtained via legal requests suggest that Baldoni and his crisis management team may have been planning to tarnish Lively’s reputation by crafting untraceable negative narratives online.
In a recent allegation, Lively claims that Baldoni is retaliating against her, with actions such as orchestrating damaging media campaigns aimed at sabotaging her career. Contrarily, Baldoni has become more firm in his statements, declaring his intention to sue Lively extensively.
As Lively’s legal battle with Baldoni and his crew progresses, Feig’s update on the future of “A Simple Favor 2” offers a refreshing break for fans who enjoyed the 2018 movie.
The initial film titled “A Simple Favor“, that generated $97 million with a production budget of just $20 million, received acclaim for its clever dialogue and intriguing plot twists. Audience members are eagerly anticipating the sequel, curious about how it will further develop the captivating chemistry between its principal actors, considering the ongoing personal struggles that Anna Kendrick (Lively) is facing in real life.
