As the author, I was — and am — so proud of that movie.

I think they did a great job."I think Blake [Lively] was great in it, Justin [Baldoni] was great in it, Brandon [Sklenar] was great in it, and I saw the completed film before any of that happened, or I knew it was happening, so I was proud of the film!

And I still am."It was a huge hit.

So, that’s what I focus on and I’m grateful that we’re here doing another one."Speaking of the latest adaptation of one of her novels, the film Verity, she noted, "It’s been a great experience and I think the aftermath is going to be a great experience.

I’m just really, really excited for this release in a way that I don’t think I have been.

I had a lot of nerves with the other ones, for a lot of different reasons, but this one is pure excitement." 'It Ends With Us' author Colleen Hoover shares major update on sequel September 25, 2026.
