Taylor and It Ends With Us

Taylor is linked to Blake's latest film, as her track 'My Tears Ricochet' soundtracks some of the film's most emotional moments, however, Taylor did not publicly send Blake her support regarding the film.

Taylor hasn't publicly supported It Ends With Us

This seems unusual, as Taylor was vocal in her support of Ryan Reynolds when his Deadpool film was released in July.

At the time, Taylor took to Instagram to implore fans to see the film, writing: "Over the past few years I have watched one of my best friends on this planet pour every bit of his heart, soul, sweat, time, energy, jokes, pain, joy, rebellion, darkness, and magic into this film," she wrote. "He's created the best work of his life, and this film feels like an actual joy portal, a wild escape from reality, and an abs sandwich. I don't know how he did it."
