In an Instagram video posted on 26 Jan., Hoover announced the movie's lead stars: Lively and Baldoni. "Our Lily is going to be played by Blake Lively. Blake Lively, y'all! She's my dream Lily," Hoover announced. "And then when I first met Justin Baldoni who is directing the film for 'It Ends With Us,' I immediately wanted him to be Ryle. I just thought that he had what it takes to play that character and the good news is he's gonna be Ryle."
She continued: "I think that Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively have what it takes to bring these characters to life and I cannot wait for you guys to see that happen."
On 20 April, Deadline exclusively confirmed that "1923" star Brandon Sklenar has joined the cast as Atlas Corrigan. On 1 May, Baldoni announced that comedian Jenny Slate was cast as Alyssa, Ryle's sister.
