Sometimes, two isn’t better than one.
Blake Lively is being slammed over incest scenes in her new movie “Another Simple Favor.”
The star, 37, plays Emily in the sequel to the 2018 film “A Simple Favor” with Anna Kendrick, 39.
In one of the most-talked-about scenes, Emily — one of three secret triples in the flick — plants a passionate kiss on her sister Charity’s lips.
Charity, who is also played by Lively, later drugs Emily, then carries her limp body to the bed, creepily places Emily’s arms around her body, and lays another kiss on her unresponsive sister.
Charity’s actions aren’t the only reason why the scene is disturbing. After drugging Emily, she also whispers to her, “I’m only ever going to make you feel good… Do you want to see what I mean? Blink if that’s OK.”
The bizarre scenes floored moviegoers, who took to social media to express their disapproval.
“Ummmmm what? Blake Lively is having a SEXUAL relationship with her sister in Another Simple Favor? Yes, INCEST. The acting and script is said to be worst [sic] than a Lifetime movie,” one person wrote on X.
“How blake lively once again makes an awful film into a soapy, unforgettable ride: what’s a little incest between secret triplets?” quipped another.
“Another simple favour is the strangest incest-filled movie i have ever watched. blake lively you will be dealt with,” posted a third.
Some even dragged her husband, Ryan Reynolds, into the incest drama.
“It sounds exactly up her and Ryan Reynolds alley. They are nasty like that but think it’s funny. Just like in Deadpool with the incest line between Ryan Reynolds and his daughter,” a social media user commented.
“Blake makes out with her twin sister. Then apparently there’s a secret triplet, just ridiculous. I won’t watch anything Blake or Ryan are in from now on,” added someone else.
The incest plotline isn’t the only glaring error that fans noticed about Paul Feig’s thriller, either, with viewers noticing slips that production should have caught.
Lively made headlines while promoting “Another Simple Favor,” marking her first film since she filed a lawsuit against her “It Ends With Us” co-star and director, Justin Baldoni, in December last year, accusing him of sexual harassment and emotional distress.
Baldoni, 41, countersued Lively for $400 million, alleging defamation, civil extortion and more.
Both have denied the others’ allegations, and their trial is set to begin in March 2026.
Lively recently copped to experiencing her “lowest lows” over the past year while on Thursday’s episode of the “Late Night With Seth Meyers.”
“I have had a pretty intense year,” the “Gossip Girl” alum said.
“This year has been full of the highest highs and lowest lows of my life,” Lively added. “I see so many women around afraid to speak, especially now, afraid to share their experience.”
“Fear is by design, it’s what keeps us silent,” she said.
“But I also acknowledge that many people don’t have the opportunity to speak, so I do feel fortunate that I have been able to.”
