Video Surfaces of Blake Lively Talking About Her "Master Plan" to Take Control of Her Movies

En español

Blake Lively has established herself as a widely sought-after star in Hollywood. But since the summer of 2024, she has found herself in a scandal regarding the production of her latest film, 'It Ends With Us.'

In a 2022 interview at the Forbes Power Women's Summit, Lively admitted that her true motivation in joining a production goes beyond acting. As reported by TMZ, Lively revealed that she's not content just hitting her mark, looking good, and delivering lines.

From the moment she steps on set, her goal is to be involved in the script, story, characters, and even wardrobe. "I want authorship," she stated candidly. While this approach has been welcomed in some projects, it has sparked resistance in others—to the point where she has asked herself, "Am I the villain here?"

The Baldoni factor

The timing of this video's resurgence couldn't be more controversial for Lively, who remains locked in a legal battle with Justin Baldoni, her co-star and director of 'It Ends With Us.'

The film, based on Colleen Hoover's bestseller, has faced backlash since production began, and tensions between its lead actors behind the scenes have only added fuel to the fire.

Lively has accused Baldoni of harassment and fostering a toxic work environment on set—claims he has vehemently denied, countering with a $400 million lawsuit for defamation and extortion.

Now, with this video making rounds, some are questioning whether the dispute is truly about a toxic workplace or a clash of egos and power.

From the Red Carpet to the Control Room

Lively's controlling nature shouldn't come as a surprise. She has directed ad campaigns, served as an executive producer, and made it clear that her creative vision is a top priority in her career.

However, her admission that she conceals this side of herself until she's already on set has sparked debate. Is it a strategic move to avoid being rejected in auditions? Or does she simply know that Hollywood doesn't take kindly to women who demand control?

Opinions online are divided. Some praise her as a visionary and talented force in the industry, while others believe this revelation only adds weight to the argument that her feud with Baldoni isn't what it seems.

One thing is certain: with a trial looming, this video is unlikely to make things any easier for her.
