Paul Feig Talks Blake Lively & Anna Kendrick’s A Simple Favor 2

So why is Feig ready to give sequels a shot with A Simple Favor? 

“I love the combo of Anna and Blake and so it was so funny,” he said. “So I can’t really tell the whole idea, but I thought, ‘Oh, I can put them in a different world now that will be very fun to see Anna Kendrick be like, ‘Where am I?'”

He added, “The whole reason I think that movie works is Anna’s character is this nerdy mom who gets caught up in this really crazy situation that’s so outside of her wheelhouse. And that’s the fun of seeing her just kind of so mesmerized by stuff and kind of in over her head.”
