“However, alongside the glamorous guests will come to the wedding also probably a side of murder,” the site reads, “not excluding infidelity and any conspiracy at a ceremony with more twists and turns than the serpentine road from the Marina Grande to the town square of Capri.”
A sequel to A Simple Favor, which was the movie based on the 2017 novel by Darcey Bell, was officially announced in May last year. The same personalities of Henry Golding, Andrew Rannells, Bashir Salahuddin, Joshua Satine, Ian Ho and Kelly McCormack are returning along with Lively and Kendrick.
Directed by Feig, who had been in limelight in Lively support during an ongoing legal fight It Ends With Us, said in an earlier X post : “Blake and Anna turn in amazing performances. I can’t wait for you all to see it.”
Another Simple Favor will be premiered on the Prime Video on May 1st.
