Blake Lively is back in the driver’s seat, and she’s not playing by anyone’s rules. After a whirlwind of drama surrounding the It Ends With Us project, which sparked controversy and allegations of fraud, Lively is proving once again that she’s a force to be reckoned with this time, in Another Simple Favour.
Set to hit Amazon Prime Video on 1 May, 2025, Another Simple Favour is the long-awaited sequel to the 2018 hit, and it promises even more glamour, suspense, and jaw-dropping twists. If the trailer is anything to go by, Emily Nelson (Lively) is back with a vengeance, and this time, the stakes are higher than ever. But this time, Emily Nelson isn’t just playing the game – she’s in charge of it with more scandal, and a whole lot of attitude.
Following her highly publicised involvement in the It Ends With Us controversy, Lively has had a lot to prove. The fallout from that project left the star in a whirlwind of accusations and public scrutiny. But Blake isn’t the type to back down. Instead, she’s channeled all that energy into her return to Another Simple Favour – A role that allows her to fully embrace the dark, glamorous, and dangerous side of Emily.
The trailer for the sequel doesn’t hold back. We’re thrown into a world of extravagant weddings, forbidden secrets, and a web of betrayal. Emily is back, but this time, there’s a fiercer edge to her character. Lively is sharper, more commanding, and clearly revealing in the opportunity to turn the tables – both in front of the camera and behind the scenes.
But beyond the sequels, the twists, and the high fashion, there’s something thrilling about watching Lively take control of her narrative. After a rocky period, she’s not just returning to a role – she’s reclaiming it. And in Another Simple Favour, she’s doing more than just solving mysteries and serving looks. She’s showing the world that no one can take her down.
Will Blake Lively nail this comeback? Will she perfect her portrayal of Emily Nelson? You can bet on it. As the high fashion and the dark secrets unfold, it’s clear that Blake Lively’s comeback isn’t just a role – it’s a statement. And she didn’t come to play nice. The trailer suggests she’s more than ready. And with the lessons learned from the drama of It Ends With Us, there’s no doubt Lively is going to turn Another Simple Favour into her most memorable performance yet.
