00:00It ends with us is had a great debut. This is a new Blake Lively movie
00:07Abuse number two in the box office only topped by her husband
00:11Ryan Reynolds and Deadpool and Wolverine
00:14Yeah, well, there is a lot of drama behind this movie and I'm not talking about the plot
00:19Talk about the making of it now
00:21It co-stars Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni as her love interest
00:26He is also the director of the film kind of yeah in name in title when you see the movie the title says he is
00:33the director
00:34But it's not a movie. He thought he was directing. No, and so there's been a lot of talk about why they are not
00:41Clearly not getting along
00:44She they when they showed up at the premiere he refused to take any photos any group photos with Blake Lively, so
00:51There's beef here, but no one attached to the film will say specifically what or what caused it
00:58We got some video though from the filming of this that was this was shot in Hoboken, New Jersey
01:05Out on the street, but there were some people nearby in a coffee shop who saw a this was after
01:12They were not filming here. They were just discussing something and
01:15It's a very animated conversation now to the people who are watching this they felt like it was
01:22an argument that it was
01:24Some something that they clearly disagreed about and were arguing about
01:28Clear and having something to do with the film. It wouldn't be out of the question because they apparently were butting heads
01:35Throughout this film. So it's based on a very famous book and the book is kind of rooted in domestic violence
01:42that's the
01:43That's the overall right her character meets this guy's a neurologist
01:48They hit it off have this great romance, but then so Justin wanted to make this
01:53About make it true to the book and make it about domestic violence because it's a gripping story and the book was huge
02:00Blake apparently wanted to make it more of a rom-com which isn't what the book is about at all
02:05so they had these two visions that were very very different and
02:10It got to a point where Ryan Reynolds and this is the story
02:16That he actually rewrote one of the scenes that Blake
02:21Acted in which is kind of crazy that someone who's not involved with the film would get that involved with the film
02:29First of all, as far as the video we got obviously can be interpreted, you know based on who's looking at it
02:34We were told the witness said what the witness said that they looked upset that they were upset
02:39We were told by someone that was actually on set that this was them just talking between scenes
02:44There was no beef. You can see that she doesn't storm off like they're apparently there was no beef there
02:50But I will say this Devin as we're looking at here him
02:53His waving of the hand is definitely dismissive and then she puts her head down like it doesn't look like a pleasant conversation
03:01Definitely does not look like a pleasant conversation and you know
03:04There's been all these stories like we've just discussed buzzing around and I personally think the biggest thing is Blake Lively and the author
03:11Who actually wrote the book that the movies based on both unfollowed Justin?
03:15So it's like why would they unfollow him on Instagram if they were the biggest thing is?
03:23Yeah, I get your point what I don't understand is why is the author
03:27Unfollowing him if
03:29Justin was true to the book and she wasn't that's that's what I don't get
03:33Well, because that's what fans are mad about but at the end of the day the movies doing super well
03:38And I think her financial future probably what the author is more
03:42Maybe the author may be team Blake because she now believes that Blake's vision of it is gonna make more money
03:49I just find this really interesting that Sony
03:53You know
03:54It doesn't really matter who Blake is, you know, but if Sony invested in the director and
04:01They were having issues with it. I would say are the director
04:05But if you're gonna keep the director
04:06You got to empower him Sony would say they invested more in Blake Lively as far as as far as because directors don't unless you're
04:13Well, yeah, he was also a star
04:15I get it
04:16But unless there are a handful of directors that will actually get people to go to see a movie
04:20Mostly people don't care about the director they care about who's the star I understand
04:25So Sony thinks they've invested in Blake Lively somebody's got to steer the ship
04:29Yeah, and the person who's doing the ship is the director and if they're not really it's strange that they didn't back the director
04:35that's what I mean, but
04:36The bottom line is money
04:38There's apparently gonna be a sequel and it's kind of been teased that Blake Lively is gonna be the one directing the sequel
04:43So maybe they thought hey, we're clearly going with Blake in the long term
04:47So obviously we're gonna side with her and Justin's even kind of like got done like a slide comment about like, yeah
04:53I think Blake's lively is ready to direct. So like he's kind of put that out there as well. So
04:58Hi guys, Amanda from Michigan here looks like instead of quiet on the set
05:03There's drama on the set for Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni and with them not following each other on social media
05:09I don't think they're gonna be sending each other funny videos anymore. And I think this is their way of publicly announcing
05:15We're not friends, but I know that a video and a picture can completely be taken out of context
05:21But unless Blake or Justin come out and publicly say hey, this is what happened and this is how we feel
05:27We're just gonna have to keep wondering. I love your place. I
05:31Knew he was gonna comment your place. What is it? You like more?
05:35Is that the lighting I just think yeah, no lighting is the gold lighting is fantastic. I
05:41Love the what about you like the hearth? Do you like the heart? I love the hearth. I know I like the rug
05:47I just think it what a beautiful what what are you seeing out the window there? Cuz I can't really tell
05:52That out the window right there. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, that's my backyard
05:57Wow, what where are you again? What what sort of what sort of in what part?
