‘It Ends With Us’ Justin Baldoni shares beloved dialogue from 2016 novel that didn’t make the final cut
It Ends With Us star Justin Baldoni addresses famous line cut from the film amid Blake Lively feud.
The 40-year-old filmmaker took to Instagram to share an iconic dialogue from Colleen Hoover’s 2016 novel that unfortunately didn’t make the final cut for the film adaptation.
He explained in the video on Friday, August 23, “Something that I know so many fans love from the book that didn’t make it in the movie, was the phrase ‘just keep swimming’ that Lily and Atlas shared over the course of the book.”
The phrase is a mantra repeated by Finding Nemo’s Dory, serving as a motivational message between the onscreen couple, Lily and Atlas in the book.
However, Baldoni highlighted that since they couldn’t include everything in the adaptation of 2016 novel of the same name, the actor tried to find ways to pay homage to the quote throughout the film.
The Jane the Virgin alum said, “If you watch the movie,” Justin said, “look in Lily’s bedroom on her wall, there’s a poster. I’m not gonna say what it’s of, but you’ll see a little homage to maybe the movie or the saying, if you will.”
It Ends With Us premiered on August 2, 2024, to widespread acclaim from fans worldwide.
