Colleen Hoover Did Not Advise Blake Lively On Playing Lily In ‘It Ends With Us’

Although Colleen Hoover was heavily involved with the creation of It Ends With Us for the big screen as a writer and executive producer, she told The Hollywood Reporter after the film was released in theaters that she did not talk with Blake Lively about her approach to playing Lily Bloom.

“I honestly did not have a conversation with her before she started filming and it was after that, that we got to know each other and I feel like she just has such talent and capabilities,” Hoover told THR. “I don’t know that there was any advice I could have given her that would have made her portray Lily’s character any better than she did. She did such a phenomenal job.”

Audiences certainly enjoyed Lively’s performance. According to The Numbers, It Ends with Us earned $148.5 million in North American theaters and $201.2 million in international ticket sales for a worldwide box office tally of $349.7 million against a $25 million production budget before prints and advertising.

Despite the booming box office performance of It Ends With Us, the film was not a hit with Rotten Tomatoes critics, who collectively gave it a 56% “rotten” rating based on 185 reviews.

The RT Critics Consensus reads, “Earnestly performed if marred by clunky dialogue, It Ends with Us is surprisingly at its most graceful when handling the more provocative elements of its melodramatic source material.”

On the flip side, It Ends with Us was a huge hit with RT users, who gave the film a 90% “fresh” Audience Score based on 5,000-plus verified ratings.

RT’s Audience summary for the film reads, “A faithful and well-done adaptation of Colleen Hoover’s book, It Ends With Us is an emotional and relatable depiction of bad romance.”

Rated PG-13, It Ends with Us debuts on Netflix on December 9.
