Brandon Sklenar Weighs In On Blake Lively, Justin Baldoni Rumors


Blake Lively’s Co-Star Brandon Sklenar Breaks Silence on ‘It Ends With Us’ Controversy

As the It Ends With Us feud rumors continue to blossom, Brandon Sklenar is hoping to nip them in the bud.  

In the wake of the Colleen Hoover adaptation’s release, speculation about the tense behind-the-scenes dynamic between stars Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni, who also directed the film, have made waves. But Brandon—who plays love interest Atlas in the film—encouraged viewers to focus on the film’s message rather than any alleged drama.   

“It just seems silly to me,” Brandon told Access Hollywood of the rumors. “It’s kinda defeating the whole purpose of the thing to spread any negativity. It’s an important film for so many women and for so many survivors of domestic abuse.” 

He continued, “That’s what it’s all about, is making people feel heard and strong and loved. So to project anything but that seems counterintuitive.” 

The 1923 star also spoke to his decision to release his Aug. 20 statement, in which he slammed the “stuff swirling online.” 

As he told Access of the move, “I put that out and I was like, ‘See how this goes.’ I appreciate those people that appreciated it.”
