It is possible that Blake Lively’s controversial film, It Ends With Us, might surpass Deadpool and Wolverine’s current top position at the box office as the most talked about romance movie.
Currently, Deadpool & Wolverine is performing strongly in theaters, as devoted Marvel fans rush to witness its memorable cameos and speculate on its connections to future MCU movies.
Despite the success of the nearly billion-dollar movie, a controversial romance is preparing to claim the top spot at the box office.
The highly anticipated premiere of It Ends With Us, starring Blake Lively, is set for August 9. The film’s presale numbers, revealed on x.com, have sparked speculation that it may dethrone Deadpool and Wolverine’s dominance in the movie industry.
Deadline reports that presale tickets for the movie adaptation of Hoover’s work earned four times more than those for Sony Pictures’ 2022 summer film Where the Crawdads Sing.
The studio is aiming to double the $17.2 million earned during its opening weekend for the sleepy romance movie, with the release of It Ends With Us. Sony has high hopes for the success of this new film.
Despite not having the same financial success as Ryan Reynolds’ comic book movie, Lively’s romance film is predicted to surpass the Marvel film in terms of popularity.
The movie adaptation of It Ends With Us is faithful to the 2016 novel written by Colleen Hoover. The storyline centers on Lily Bloom, a flower shop owner, as she grapples with the decision of choosing between the volatile doctor Ryle Kincaid and her former flame, Atlas Corrigan.
Despite the lighthearted premise of the movie, It Ends With Us has received significant criticism since gaining popularity on the book side of TikTok.
According to some of Hoover’s critics, the novel may be seen as glorifying abusive relationships due to the portrayal of Ryle’s toxic traits, which are depicted as more realistic than fictional.
Despite facing criticism from some, It Ends With Us still managed to achieve global success, selling one million copies and leading to the creation of its sequel, It Starts With Us.
Hoover has accumulated over 2 billion videos under her name hashtag on TikTok, making it unsurprising if Reynolds is outperformed by his own wife in the movie industry.
