It Ends With Us star condemns “vilifying” women over “behind the scenes” drama

As a seasoned gamer and movie enthusiast with a soft spot for romantic dramas, I must say that the recent online chatter surrounding It Ends With Us has left me rather disheartened. Having watched countless films and played numerous games where drama unfolds behind the scenes, I can confidently say that it’s all too common.


Actor Brandon Sklenar, who appeared in the movie “It Ends With Us“, has criticized individuals for unfairly criticizing the film’s female cast and screenwriter due to rumors of off-screen conflicts.

On August 20th, the actor responsible for portraying Atlas Corrigan in the hit movie took to Instagram to share an extensive post about the ongoing discussions regarding “It Ends With Us”.

It’s been whispered that a disagreement might exist between producer-actor Blake Lively and director-actor Justin Baldoni, as they haven’t collaborated on any promotional activities prior to the film launch. Interestingly, before the film hit the screens, fans noticed that Lively and the rest of the cast do not follow Baldoni on Instagram.

Brandon Sklenar refrains from commenting on the rumored discord on set, but instead, he criticizes the harsh criticism leveled against Blake Lively and author Colleen Hoover.

In an Instagram post, Sklenar expressed a need to clarify the ongoing discussions online. He affirmed that Colleen and the female cast members represent values such as optimism, resilience, and empowerment, symbolizing their pursuit of a more fulfilling life for women everywhere.

As a passionate admirer, I find it rather contradictory and distracting to criticize the women who poured their heart and soul into creating this movie, given how deeply they resonate with its message. Such criticism undermines the very essence of the film itself.

As a gamer putting forth my perspective, I’ve got to say that the movie we crafted wasn’t intended to be the polar opposite, but it seems some folks have misunderstood our motives. The behind-the-scenes details may be fuzzy or controversial, but they should not overshadow our original intentions. It’s truly disheartening to witness the waves of negativity flooding social media about our creation.

Sklenar emphasized that the profound theme of domestic violence portrayed in the movie should not be overshadowed by trivial conjectures regarding behind-the-scenes disputes among fans.

In his own words, Sklenar emphasized that every individual involved in creating this film was fully conscious of the significant duty we bore. This duty extended to all women who have endured generational trauma, domestic violence, or face challenges in accepting and appreciating themselves in the mirror.

As someone who has experienced the consequences of irresponsibility in my own life, I strongly believe that this movie serves as a stark reminder for men to step up and take charge. It’s essential for them to recognize their role in their lives and understand that their actions have far-reaching effects. We all need to learn from the lessons portrayed in this film and strive to be better, not just for ourselves but for those around us as well.

As a woman who has faced her fair share of challenges and obstacles, I wholeheartedly appreciate films that inspire, validate, and recognize our experiences. These films are essential in instilling hope, building courage, and making us feel less alone. They play a crucial role in spreading love and awareness about the issues we face. However, it’s disheartening to see films that continue to portray women as the ‘bad guy.’ It is time for us to move beyond this stereotype together and create narratives that reflect our strength, resilience, and complexity. Let’s work towards a future where every woman can see herself reflected in positive and empowering roles on screen.

Sklenar encourages everyone discussing the film to ensure their views are grounded in truth, as spreading unfounded rumors could foster an unpleasant digital environment.

“Lead with love and please be kind,” he concluded.

As a die-hard fan of the It Ends with Us movie, I’ve been keeping an ear out for any updates about the alleged on-set feuds. However, none of the cast members have spoken up about it directly. Yet, Baldoni, one of the key players, has admitted to some “tension” during filming.

According to Baldoni, everything requires a certain amount of struggle to develop. Interestingly, we’ve managed to create something truly wonderful and enchanting, and although it was difficult, it was also rewarding simultaneously.

“And I grew so much as both a filmmaker, an actor and as a person throughout this experience.”

In spite of, or even partly fueled by, widespread fan conjecture, the film “It Ends With Us” has raked in over $180 million at the box office within just 10 days of its premiere.

It Ends With Us is out now in cinemas.
