Blake Lively and Anna Kendrick are setting the record straight after recent rumors claimed there was tension between the two actresses. Despite speculation, sources close to the pair have confirmed that there is absolutely no feud between the stars, who both starred in 2018’s A Simple Favor and are now set to appear in the upcoming sequel, Another Simple Favor.
The rumor mill recently suggested that the actresses were at odds over their billing in the sequel, sparking claims of behind-the-scenes drama. However, sources close to the actresses have shut down these rumors, telling TMZ that the gossip is simply not true.
According to insiders, any reports claiming that Blake and Anna are feuding over the billing in the new movie are entirely false. “Billing is established long before production begins, and neither Blake nor Anna has anything to do with the decision,” one source explained. “The whole thing is a fabrication.”
The pair, who had great chemistry in their first film together, have reportedly had no issues with one another while working on the A Simple Favor franchise. Those familiar with the situation have emphasized that the playful banter between the two actresses has often been misinterpreted, fueling false rumors about a rift between them.
Rather than engaging in any sort of behind-the-scenes drama, sources say that Blake and Anna continue to have a positive and friendly relationship. “It’s really just people looking for something to stir up drama. There’s no real conflict. It’s just playful interaction, and that’s being twisted into something it’s not,” a source close to the situation added.
As for the supposed “feud” rumors, the insider reiterated that the claims are “flat-out false” and assured fans that there would be no legal battle or other fallout stemming from the movie’s production. Both actresses are said to be fully focused on their work and enjoying the experience of making Another Simple Favor together.
