The event, held at Jazz at Lincoln Center, celebrated the sequel to the 2018 film A Simple Favor, directed by Paul Feig and co-starring Anna Kendrick.
Blake Lively, 37, wore a pale mint draped gown with geometric cutouts, accessorized with colorful jewelry, while Ryan Reynolds, 48, opted for a sharp gray plaid suit. The couple posed together on the red carpet, showcasing their continued public solidarity.

The Another Simple Favor premiere comes just days after Blake Lively was honored at the 2025 TIME100 Gala, where she acknowledged the challenges of the past two years during her speech. Lively’s legal dispute with Justin Baldoni began in December 2024, when she filed a lawsuit alleging sexual harassment and a retaliatory smear campaign. Baldoni has denied the allegations and countersued Lively, Reynolds, and others for $400 million, with a trial scheduled for March 2026.
Despite the ongoing legal issues, Lively continues to promote her projects and receive recognition for her work. During a panel appearance following the TIME100 Gala, Ryan Reynolds praised his wife’s resilience, calling her strength “profound” and her coping mechanisms “amazing.”
Another Simple Favor is set for release later this year, and anticipation is high as Lively and Kendrick reunite for another stylish thriller.
