Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively opened up about playing love interests in the film adaptation of Colleen Hoover’s 'It Ends With Us'
Fans currently waiting for It Ends With Us to come to theaters at least have some new insight from Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively to keep them going.
The actor, who is also an executive producer on the project, called Lively's performance 'strong, funny and intelligent — all the things you want from a female heroine.' Baldoni, meanwhile, is set to take on the role of Ryle. 'I had to dig up a lot of stuff, and I found parts of me that I didn't know existed,' he added about how the film 'really comes from the heart and from the depth' of his soul. 'In some way, playing Ryle was actually very healing to me as Justin. There was parts of me as Justin that I thought that I had maybe worked on and healed that I realized I hadn't.
'Lily resonated with an enormous amount of people, as the success of the book made clear,' Lively told People on Tuesday. 'Stepping into a character who’s had such a meaningful impact is an honor to take on.'
