Blake Lively is hiding a dark secret in new trailer for A Simple Favour

Cape Town - After teasing Blake Lively’s mysterious character earlier this year Lionsgate has released a full trailer for A Simple Favour.

Directed by Paul Feig, the thriller centres on Stephanie (Anna Kendrick), a mommy blogger who seeks to uncover the truth behind her best friend Emily's (Blake Lively) sudden disappearance from their small town.

The new trailer gives us a closer look at who Emily is – underneath the poised, elegant persona she is hiding a dark secret. 

In the clip a character says: “I warn you. You go poking around in her past you are going to find something that is terrifying she was not a normal person like you or me.”
