Paul Feig Gives Blake Lively a Shout-Out Amid Legal Woes
So, Blake Lively is currently navigating some choppy legal waters with Justin Baldoni, and it seems that director Paul Feig is her steadfast ally during this tumultuous time. Amid the glitzy chaos of the Vanity Fair Oscars 2025 after-party on March 2, Feig took a moment to reassure fans about Blake’s well-being. He shared with E! News, “We went to SNL 50th anniversary together and just had a blast. She’s great, she’s awesome.” It’s heartwarming to see that friendship thrives even in the midst of drama, right?
While Lively didn’t grace the after-party with her presence, her upcoming project, “Another Simple Favor,” is generating some serious buzz. The film, set to premiere on Amazon Prime Video on May 1, promises an exciting mix of plot twists, picturesque Italian backdrops, and, of course, fashion to die for—because what’s a movie without some fabulous outfits? Based on the teaser released on February 26, it looks like Blake’s character, the enigmatic Emily Nelson, is back, and she’s got some wicked plans up her sleeve. In a cheeky nod to the potential for shenanigans, Emily tells Anna Kendrick’s character that if she were to murder her, “it would make an amazing sequel.” I mean, could this film get any more thrilling?
The post-Oscars festivities were packed with stars like Anna Kendrick, who was seen mingling with Feig and other celebs including Melanie Lynskey and James Marsden. Timothée Chalamet made an appearance with Kylie Jenner, while Best Actress winner Mikey Madison was flaunting her Oscar like a fashion accessory. With such a star-studded event, it’s no wonder fans are keeping their eyes peeled for updates—who wouldn’t want to catch a glimpse of their favorite celebs in stunning designer wear?
In a landscape where Hollywood friendships often feel superficial, it’s refreshing to see genuine support like that of Feig for Lively. As the legal drama unfolds, let’s hope Blake continues to shine both in her career and personal life. Stay tuned for more updates, because this story is far from over!
