Everything We Know About Upcoming Blake Lively's Films (Patreon)

Blake Lively is back to acting. She recently did It Ends with Us, and her new movie Another Simple Favor will release on May 1st. But she has more upcoming movies that are worth mentioning.
The Husband's Secret (Based on the novel of the same name)
The story follows three women in Sydney, Australia, whose lives intersect through a devastating secret:
Cecilia Fitzpatrick (played by Blake Lively): A seemingly perfect wife and mother who finds a letter written by her husband, John-Paul, labeled to be opened after his death. When she opens it (despite his protests), she discovers a shocking confession that upends her life and forces her to confront serious moral dilemmas.
Tess O'Leary: A businesswoman whose marriage falls apart when her husband admits he’s in love with her cousin. Tess moves to Sydney with her son, reconnects with an old flame, and deals with her own emotional mess.
Rachel Crowley: A grieving grandmother obsessed with the unsolved murder of her teenage daughter. She suspects a local man, Connor, and her obsession spirals as new connections come to light.
Now, this will be disappointing — the novel only has implied sex scenes and no nudity at all. Tess's husband cheats with her cousin, but no actual sex scene between them is shown. There are undressing moments mentioned, but nothing detailed.
This film was announced by CBS Films back in 2013. Blake Lively joined the project in 2017. Kat Coiro came on board as director in 2022. Since then, nothing. It's been more than a decade, and the project is neither canceled nor moving forward.
The Making Of (Romantic Comedy)
The film follows a long-married couple of filmmakers (Richard Gere and Diane Keaton) producing a movie about their own love story. They cast two overemotional actors (Blake Lively and Lin-Manuel Miranda) to play their younger selves. As filming begins, the filmmakers' marriage starts falling apart, clashing with the actors' push to tell the "real" version of the story. It explores love, truth, and how real life differs from the fantasy shown in movies.
The project was announced in 2020 and is currently stuck in pre-production.
No nudity or sex is reported so far.
Proxy (Sci-fi Thriller)
The film follows a woman (Blake Lively) who wakes up after a medical trauma to find her consciousness transferred into a biosynthetic body. As she tries to reconnect with her former life, she uncovers a darker conspiracy that questions the future of humans and AI.
It was announced in 2022. Filming was supposed to start in 2023 but got delayed because of the writers' strike. No further updates since then.
Nudity is expected based on the plot — typically in movies like this, after someone's consciousness is transferred, there’s a scene where they explore their new body, usually in a bathroom setting.
This is all Blake Lively has lined up right now.
