It Ends with Us cast: All the stars in Blake Lively book adaptation

As I delve into the captivating world of It Ends With Us, I find myself awestruck by the remarkable cast that brings this heart-wrenching tale to life. Each actor has a rich and diverse background, adding depth and authenticity to their respective characters.


If you’re an avid follower of BookTok, or simply a fan of author Colleen Hoover, you might be eagerly waiting for “It Ends With Us” to be adapted into a movie this year, as it’s likely one of your highly anticipated films.

The movie, adapted from Hoover’s popular book of the same title, narrates the tale of Lily Bloom. Her intense relationship with a seemingly endearing stranger eventually triggers memories of the harmful actions exhibited by her father that she finds disturbingly familiar.

It’s noteworthy that for the movie adaptation, the characters are portrayed as older versions of their novel counterparts; Blake Lively steps into the role of Lily, a character originally depicted as 23 years old in the book.

In a recent interview with Today, Hoover admitted as an author, mistakes are made. She noted that there aren’t any 28-year-old neurosurgeons because one spends 15 years in education. To rectify errors found in her book, she slightly increased the age of the characters.
