It All Ends Here

It Ends with Us is a 2024 American romantic drama film directed by Justin Baldoni and written by Christy Hall, based on the 2016 novel by Colleen Hoover.

The story follows florist Lily Bloom (Lively), whose abusive relationship with neurosurgeon Ryle Kincaid (Baldoni) is compounded when her ex-boyfriend Atlas Corrigan (Sklenar) re-enters her life. Principal photography on It Ends with Us took place from mid-2023 to early 2024, with pauses due to the 2023 WGA strike and the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike. It Ends with Us premiered at the AMC Lincoln Square in New York City on August 6, 2024, and was released in the United States on August 9 by Sony Pictures Releasing. The film received mixed reviews from critics and was a box-office success, grossing $351 million against a $25 million budget. The production of the film was mired in controversy due to disputes between Lively and Baldoni, leading to extensive litigation.
