Was Blake Vigorous attempting to recreate a scene from a 2011 film in remaining yr’s “It Ends with Us” that’s led to controversy and jealousy? One fan’s conspiracy precept has taken off on-line, and others are noting similarities.
Throughout the 2011 comic information flick “Inexperienced Lantern,” Blake’s character dances with the hero — her future husband, Ryan Reynolds — and it seems to resemble a disputed scene in “It Ends with Us” that is part of a harassment lawsuit.
Blake is suing her “It Ends with Us” castmate and director Justin Baldoni for sexual harassment, and her lawsuit describes one scene by means of which the two slow-dance in a bar — she says Baldoni nuzzled her neck and whispered into her ear, making her uncomfortable … and no one was acutely aware of the comment.
Years earlier, in “Inexperienced Lantern,” Ryan moreover dances intimately alongside along with his scene companion — Blake herself. The two weren’t married then — Reynolds was married to Scarlett Johansson, and Blake was courting Penn Badgley.
A fan on-line well-known the scenes’ similarity Sunday, and posed the question — was Blake attempting to recreate the an identical state of affairs, consciously or not?
Leanne Newton posted on X … “I seen that about half-hour into the film, there’s a scene the place Vigorous and Reynolds characters dance in a bar in an nearly an an identical resolution to the gradual dance scene from IEWU. The one distinction is the characters had been talking. Could or not it’s potential that Vigorous was attempting to recreate the scene to be very like the scene she did alongside together with her husband when she fell in love with him? Did she rewrite the scene to replicate the small print of the dance? Is that this what she means when she says her husband is ‘all through this movie’?”
Newton speculates RR was jealous when he seen the ‘IEWU’ dance scene, after rumors of his private infidelity following ‘Lantern’s launch.
Quite a few others commented on Newton’s put up, agreeing with the premise — though not lower than one specific particular person well-known the similarities don’t present one thing, that Blake could have felt uncomfortable inside the ‘IEWU’ scene nonetheless. It is usually unclear who exactly wrote the bar’s dance scene.

Baldoni launched raw footage from the ‘IEWU’ clip in January, that features sound that was not inside the movie — the two actors converse regarding the scene as they dance, they often’re surrounded by strong and crew inside the background. Blake even says it is perhaps “additional romantic” within the occasion that that they had been talking all through their dancing. Justin tells her she “smells good,” referring to her commenting on her spray tan, and the two snicker.
Reynolds divorced Johansson in 2010, and married Blake in 2012. Scarlett went on to marry ‘SNL’ funnyman Colin Jost in 2020.
Blake filed a lawsuit in December in opposition to Baldoni alleging harassment on set … Baldoni then filed his private lawsuit in opposition to the New York Events, alleging a coordinated, centered smear advertising marketing campaign in opposition to him.
We have now reached out to Blake’s reps for comment … to date, no phrase once more.
