‘A Simple Favour’ Is Getting A Sequel, With Blake Lively And Anna Kendrick Returning. Yes To More Cocktails And Sexy Pantsuits!
While it is common to see on-screen chemistry between actors of opposite genders, there are few funds that are able to capture the interactions between the same gender relationships and do them justice. One of these movies was the 2018 comedy-thriller A Simple Favor starring Blake Lively and Anna Kendrick. A sequel to the film has been given a go by Amazon and Lionsgate and to say that I cannot wait is an understatement.
Blake Lively and Anna Kendrick will be reprising their roles as Emily Nelson and Stephanie Smothers in the sequel of A Simple Favor. Jessica Sharzer will be writing the sequel, having written the first part as well which followed a mommy blogger, Stephanie Smothers (played by Kendrick) who tries to solve the disappearance of her elegant and mysterious friend, Emily Nelson (played by Lively) from their small town. A Simple Favor is based on a book by Darcey Bell by the same name.
