BookTok is all abuzz with the news that Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni will be starring in a movie based on the bestselling romance novel, "It Ends With Us."
The book's author Colleen Hoover made the announcement on her verified Instagram account Thursday.
She began by sharing footage of the childhood home she says she lived in after her mother got their family out of "a scary situation."
She thanked her mother and emotionally said, "The fact that we are now discussing a movie that's made from a book that was loosely inspired by my mother is bittersweet."
"Anyway, didn't mean for this to turn into a sobfest. Our Lily is going to be played by Blake Lively," Hoover said. "Blake Lively, y'all. She's my dream Lily."
As for Baldoni, she said, "I immediately wanted him to be Ryle."
"I just thought that he had what it takes to play that character," she said. "The good news is he's gonna be Ryle. So we have our Ryle and our Lily."
