Brandon Sklenar, Blake Lively’s co-star in the film adaptation of Colleen Hoover’s novel *It Ends With Us*, has once again addressed the controversy surrounding the movie. In a recent interview with Access Hollywood, Sklenar supported Lively’s handling of the film’s sensitive subject matter and dismissed the negativity swirling online.
“It just seems silly to me,” Sklenar remarked. “Spreading negativity defeats the purpose of the film. It’s an important project for many women and survivors of domestic abuse.” He emphasized that the film’s mission is to empower and uplift victims, rather than foster negativity.
Sklenar urged viewers to honor the efforts of everyone involved in the film, stressing the importance of respecting their work. His comments come a month after he posted a similar message on Instagram, defending both Lively and their team.
Previously, Lively faced criticism for allegedly mishandling the film’s social issue and promoting her own hair-care line shortly before the movie’s premiere. This led to backlash from fans who revisited past interviews where Lively had been critical of journalists.
