Blake Lively’s Another Simple Favor director reveals if he’d work with her again after his ‘tiger’ remark

Blake Lively’s Another Simple Favor director has revealed whether he’s like to work with the actress again and the answer is a resounding yes. 

Paul Feig, 62, who said the ‘tiger comes out’ when Lively, 37, inhabits her character of Emily, is anxious to go on another adventure with the embattled actress and her co-star Anna Kendrick, 39. 

‘I definitely know where I want it to go,’ the Emmy nominee told People.  

‘We’ll see if everybody wants to do a third one. It was too much fun — I would love to get back together with this group and these characters and send them on an even weirder, international adventure, if possible,’ he told the outlet. 

Another Simple Favor, the sequel to 2018’s dark comedy A Simple Favor, finds Lively’s Emily getting ready to walk down the aisle in Capri, Italy, and Kendrick’s Stephanie has agreed to be her maid of honor. 

For a third adventure, Feig wants to go broader. ‘I think we need to take them out into the world even more,’ he explained.

Another Simple Favor debuted on Thursday and was the global number one for Amazon Prime, according to the streamer. 

‘Thank you all for watching a simple favor. We’re all so proud of this absolutely bonkers, unhinged movie, she wrote, sharing the announcement in her Instagram Stories. 

‘Thank you, thank you. We’re so grateful to you,’ ending the message with a flaming heart, prayer hands, lemon, knife and martini emojis.

The film has received mixed reviews from critics and from viewers.

‘Loved it! Blake and Anna are so talented!!,’ wrote one. ‘So much better than I thought it would be. Anna and Blake killed it,’ penned another. 

‘I loved movies 1 and 2, I really hope there’s a 3,’ suggested a fan.

‘I’d rather have root canal. Thanks,’ was an opposite point of view.

Some commenters were more focused on hating Lively after her very public feud with her It Ends with Us costar and director Justin Baldoni.

‘Awful movie ❌ What was that nonsense script and plot? The acting couldn’t have been more cringe. Blake played herself again and it showed. She didn’t need to act one bit,’ said one viewer. 

‘Blake is too cringe to watch the movie was ridiculous,’ agreed another.
