In real life, she’s often in the middle of controversy and drama.
However, what Lively is really like behind the cameras is a bit of a mystery.
In aForbesinterview, Lively revealed that she struggled to find fulfillment as an actor.
Of course, some directors and producers like Taylor Sheridan are openly more comfortable with collaborating with actors.
Everyone’s style is different, and it seems that Lively prefers collaboration.
She toldVoguein September 2024 that she didn’t like doing photo shoots at all due to shyness.
While she loves acting, being on the pages of magazines isn’t where she shines.
“I don’t feel super comfortable in front of a camera.
It’s part of why I don’t want to be in magazines.”
“…[T]his is I think the first cover I’ve done in four years.”
Lively’s life has changed a lot throughout the years.
In 2012, she and Ryan Reynolds tied the knot, and the two have welcomed four children.
Lively has taken fewer acting roles to prioritize her family.
“My life has become more intimate,” she told Vogue.
But even before Lively became a mother, she had intended to keep certain aspects of her life private.
The A-lister toldAllurethe same thing back in 2012 about being shy.
“I can be outgoing, but I’m also very private.”
Blake waved at the camera and jokingly responded, “Hi Stephanie, you should leave him!”
Stephanie later responded to Lively’s message during an interview withDaily Mail.
“I absolutely love Gossip Girl.
I have watched it so many times, I just love Blake Lively,” she said.
She is my favorite person in the world."
“When she’s working and when she’s in it, a rock-solid pro.”
He noticed how Lively could turn her work mode off and be completely present with her kids.
“She’s the best, one of the best moms I’ve ever seen.”
Before getting to know Lively in person, Hoover was already a fan.
“I’m a huge Blake Lively fan first and foremost,” she toldThe Hollywood Reporter.
“I feel like she just has such talent and capabilities,” the novelist said.
Hoover was blown away by Lively’s performance, which she toldPeoplehad exceeded all her expectations.
The novelist believed the film adaption corrected some of the mistakes she made in the book.
Though she didn’t like starting with a blank page, she had a heart for script improvement.
Blake also writes on Reynolds' films, though she hardly received any credit.
The “Deadpool” actor addressed this in an interview with SiriusXM.
“I will say that a lot of times, ‘She wrote that Blake wrote that, not me.
That was her.’
And it’s like, they still, later on, repeat the story as I wrote it.”
The couple’s eldest daughter, James, even had a voice cameo in on “Reputation.”
Of course, this received the couple’s blessing.
“We trust her simplicity,” Reynolds told SiriusXM (viaPeople).
“She’s very sensitive to any of that stuff.”
She has brought her kids to film sets
Family always comes first for Blake Lively.
She’s no stranger to taking her kids on the set of the movies she worked on.
“If she really needs me, I can pop over there.”
“We’ve each given up stuff we loved to make it not work at the same time.”
She also claimed that she wasn’t given proper lactation breaks, which led to her developing mastitis.
“Nicole Kidman and others have it.”
Jackman further comparedLively’s stunning transformationto a classical Hollywood icon.
At the height of her beauty."
He noted that this was possible because Lively is comfortable in her own skin.
Inthe legal document, the director enclosed more text messages between him and Lively.
While discussing the rooftop scene, Lively allegedly teased the director.
“It’s my love language.
Spicy and playfully bold, never with teeth.”
This is not the only instance when their message exchanges caught fans' attention.
Lively allegedly refused to meet with an intimacy coordinator before filming started, reasoning that she felt good.
She also allegedly messaged Baldoni at 2:46 AM about their chemistry on set after production had started.
“It’s such a good feeling to get work done that we’re proud of.
And to do it together.
It just clicks when we find it.”
So have my suppositories.
For better or worse, but usually for better.
Because my dragons also protect those I fight for.
So really we all benefit from those gorgeous monsters of mine."
In the suit, Baldoni claimed that Lively continued to alter the script on a daily basis.
“Of course that’s also happening to Blake Lively.”
“…I thought it was awful.”
