" He work on everything I do , " Blake said of Ryan .
Blake Livelyclaimed husbandRyan Reynoldswrote a scene inIt Ends with Us, and the screenwriter seemed to have different thoughts.
At theNew Yorkpremiere of the Colleen Hoover adaptation last week, Blake toldE!, “[Me and Ryan] help each other, we work together so much. The iconic rooftop scene, my husband actually wrote it. Nobody knows that.”
“He wrote it,” she continued. “He works on everything I do. I work on everything he does. So his wins, his celebrations are mine and mine are his. He’s all over this film.”
The problem is, there is a screenwriter credited with the movie: Christy Hall. At the same event, she told theHollywood Reporter, “As a writer, probably the most difficult scene for me to crack was the rooftop scene. I have to say, Colleen wrote it perfectly. I wish I could have just lifted it from the pages and put it in the film, but it’s a little too long for film language.”
Christy then said that she wasn’t aware of any writing input from Ryan. She explained, “There were a couple of little things that I thought had been improvised. Like when he says, ‘Pretty please with a cherry on top,’ and she talks about the maraschino cherries. When I saw a cut I was like, ‘Oh, that’s cute. That must have been a cute improvised thing.’ So if I’m being told that Ryan wrote that, then great, how wonderful.”
“There were a few little flourishes that I did not write, but I assumed that they had been improvised on set. But, again, like I said, the moments that I felt like needed to be honored are there. So I recognize the scene and I’m proud of the scene. And if those flourishes came from Ryan, I think that’s wonderful,” she concluded.
