NEWS NOW: Why Taylor Swift fans have been left fuming over trailer for Colleen Hoover movie It Ends With Us – starring singer’s best friend Blake Lively
Taylor Swift fans have been left furious after hearing the popstar’s hit tune My Tears Ricochet in the trailer for Colleen Hoover’s movie It Ends With Us, which stars the singer’s best pal, Blake Lively.
Last week, the trailer for Blake’s highly-anticipated film, which is an adaptation of Colleen’s book.
The author has previously come under fire for romanticizing domestic violence with her book as well as launching a nail polish and coloring book inspired by her novel.
Blake, 36, plays Lily Bloom, a woman beginning a passionate – and then abusive – relationship with Ryle Kincaid (Justin Baldoni, 40) – before the return of her ex, Atlas Corrigan (Brandon Sklenar, 32).
The film, which is set to be released August 9, is also directed by Baldoni.
Blake and Taylor are famously best pals, but Swifties weren’t impressed the tune featured in the trailer of the movie
Following the release of the trailer, Taylor’s fans were quick to express their opinions about the use of the artist’s song from her eighth studio album, Folklore.
Fans responded to a post made by Taylor Nation, the singer’s official PR account, on X, formerly known as Twitter, in which they promoted the trailer.
One person said: ‘Delete, please everyone is asking you to delete.’
Another user added: ‘My tears ricochet in a f***ing Colleen Hoover movie trailer? Absolutely the f**k not get my baby away from that f***ing trailer.’
‘A Colleen Hoover adaptation featuring a Taylor Swift song, this belongs in the deepest pits of hell, along with everyone gagging over this,’ someone else wrote.
‘Sorry but a Taylor song isn’t going to make me watch a Colleen Hoover movie,’ one user typed, which prompted many other people on the web to claim the same.
Someone else wrote: ‘Same like sorry girl, I love myself too much for this.’
‘Yeah in the same boat! But get your bag Blake and Taylor haha,’ a user added.
