Blake Lively's director of Another Simple Favor declared that he would absolutely love to collaborate with the actress once more.

Paul Feig, 62, who claimed that the "tiger comes out" when the 37-year-old plays Emily, is eager to embark on another journey with the troubled actress and her co-star Anna Kendrick.

The Emmy nominee told People, "I know exactly where I want it to go."

"We'll check to see if anyone is interested in doing a third one," Feig told the outlet. "I would love to get back together with this group and these characters and send them on an even weirder, international adventure, if possible. It was too much fun."

The follow-up to the 2018 dark comedy A Simple Favor, Kendrick's Stephanie has agreed to be Emily's maid of honour as she prepares to get married in Capri, Italy.

Feig wants to expand for a third adventure. He clarified, "I think we need to take them out into the world even more."

On Thursday, Another Simple Favor made its debut and became the top-ranked Amazon Prime product worldwide.

Are Blake and Anna still friends, or is there a falling out?

It’s unclear if Blake Lively and Anna Kendrick are still friends or if their relationship has soured.

While there have been reports of tension and awkward encounters during their press tour, both actresses appeared to put on a united front at the London screening.
