Anna Kendrick and Ryan Reynolds’ wife, Blake Lively, kissed in ‘A Simple Favor’
Although they met when Kendrick was 19, she and Lively didn’t act together until they both had established careers. On Sept. 14, 2018, the actors’ movie, A Simple Favor, premiered. Kendrick stars as Stephanie Smothers, a small-town vlogger. She and her PR executive friend, Emily Nelson (Lively), shared a kiss.
Before its release, Lively and Kendrick promoted the film together. According to Entertainment Tonight, the Twilight star has a pleasant experience kissing the Gossip Girl alum. She said that both she and Lively ate mints before their intimate scene.
“All I’m ever thinking about in (kissing) scenes is, who has gum? Who has a mint? And I think Blake is probably the same because I’ve never experienced a guy, like, searching for a mint and searching for gum,” she said. “So, we were the mintiest, freshest two people to have ever kissed in the history of America. Call Guinness.”
Kendrick also added that “it was a fun day,” kissing her co-star.
‘They’re just like, just sinfully good together’
During her promotion for A Simple Favor, Kendrick appeared on Late Night With Seth Meyers. In her interview, she described working with both Reynolds and Lively on separate projects. She said that she noticed Reynolds during The Voices was his “dark” sense of humor.
Once she and Lively joined forces, Kendrick said The Town star possesses the same characteristics as her husband.
“Ryan’s like, very dark and funny,” she revealed. “And then when I finally worked with [Lively], I was like, ‘Oh, she’s really dark and funny too, actually.’”
“So you know, they’re just like, just sinfully good together,” Kendrick continued.
