“Such A Narcissist”: Ryan Reynolds Slammed For “Egotistical” Email Sent To Colleen Hoover

Ryan Reynolds was ridiculed online for an “egotistical” email he sent to It Ends With Us author Colleen Hoover amid his wife Blake Lively’s bitter feud with Justin Baldoni.

As court proceedings take place ahead of the Blake-Justin trial this year, newly unsealed documents include a “cringe” email Ryan had sent to the author a day after the film’s premiere in August 2024.

“He is such a narcissist. He thinks he is wonderful, but he really isn’t,” one commented on his email.

The movie It Ends With Us, adapted from the Colleen Hoover novel and directed by Justin Baldoni, has been overshadowed by the messy feud between Justin and leading lady Blake Lively.

The fallout saw Ryan and Blake desperately sending emails to their big-shot friends, asking for support.

One email sent from Ryan to Colleen saw him congratulating her for the “complete f*****g WIN” of a movie.

“I heard you guys got a tummy bug and you’re stuck in NY,” he said in the email sent a day after the film’s premiere. “I can’t think of anything worse. Although it might be your body ridding itself of any residual Baldoni.”

“I’d rather be puking in a gulag than hijacking performative feminism while practicing personal growth catchphrases in the mirror,” he added.

Calling the author a “creator and apex storyteller,” he said: “I can imagine it takes a very resolute mind and heart to process all the strange people with muddled intentions trying to warm their hands on your light.”

The Deadpool star then went on to praise Colleen, saying the film “is on fire everywhere.”

“Holy f***ity f**. You guys really pulled it off … Audiences have wrapped both arms around the film,” he wrote.

The Proposal actor then complimented the author and his wife for not only the output of the film but also for giving “s****y people” a “good old-fashioned, pants-down spanking.”

“You and B made something gorgeous out of ingredients you didn’t ask for. Which is what makes you both (and this whole post production team) so clutch,” he said.

“I know we all breathe rare air. I realize how lucky we are. But I also know how genuinely GOOD you and B are,” he went on to say.

“And seeing good people put s****y people over their knee, for a good old-fashioned, pants-down spanking in the supermarket is a special experience I don’t take for granted.”

Ryan still had more praise left to give, saying he could “literally write [her] 85 more paragraphs eulogizing” what “this all” means to him.

“This whole team rallied and delivered. Even Sony stepped up in ways I never imagined. But mainly, I’m just incredibly proud and inspired by you and B,” he said.

Not all readers online were happy with Ryan’s tone and called him a “total psycho.”

“He’s creepy,” one said, while another quipped, “I just know he’s spiraling right now.”

“The way they speak is so manipulative,” one wrote. “And every single correspondence, they can’t stop talking about Justin. They are obsessed.”

“Ryan Reynolds is a complete arrogant psychopath the way he’s behaved in this entire situation and Colleen Hoover is a moron,” another chimed in.

Another wrote, “All of a sudden I appreciate my husband’s one word text responses.”

Among several emails and text messages exposed in the newly unsealed exhibits, there was one email where Ryan talked about “protecting” Blake’s reputation to agent Warren Zavala.

“Baldoni and these other buckets of dumb-dumb-juice should be acknowledging the speculation and gossip themselves,” he said, referring to the early reports of tension brewing within the It Ends With Us team.

“They should be jumping in front of it in the most full-throated, unqualified way. Now,” he added.

Ryan said he didn’t want Blake to be “subjected to some eye-roll-y narrative of the ‘controlling b****’” and claimed Justin and his team “should be protecting” her.

Accusing Justin and the team of “countless and willfully gross behavior,” he said they should “accept the consequences of their actions.”

“They made a big f***ing mess. Blake – under NO CIRCUMSTANCES – should be asked to clean up this sloppy, cliched f***storm,” he added.

The husband and father-of-four said he was “super frustrated” that the drama was unfolding when “Blake should be celebrating.”

“She made this unbelievable win happen,” he said. “She made this a win for Sony and by proxy, Wayfarer.”

Ryan went on to claim that Blake “refused to give up on the film” and sacrificed “sleep” as well as “countless moments with her kids” to sit in “edit rooms, scrapping and frame f***ing dailies for every square inch of quality.”

The actor further claimed that every cast member and “key crew member (including Colleen)” were on Team Blake.

“[They] won’t be in the same room as the guy,” he added. “All of them have at some point, over the last six months, unfollowed him on social media. Not one person has said Justin’s name out loud in any interview at any time.”

Blake, herself, claimed she took on responsibilities in the film production that went beyond her role as the movie’s lead actress.

“I rewrote the entire script. I directed every actor,” she claimed in an email sent to Matt Damon and his wife Luciana Damon.

She said she had been sleeping for “about an hour and a half each night” while racing to finish her edited version of the movie for what she described as an internal “bake off.”

“They gave me 10 days to scrap together an edit to compete with an edit he’s been making since July,” she said.

In her email exchanges, Blake also requested that Matt and actor Ben Affleck watch the film and give her feedback.

“The man is a bag of red flags,” one netizen commented after Ryan Reynolds’ email came out
