The acclaimed movie, which has a 78% fresh score on Rotten Tomatoes, was also added to Netflix a few months ago.
In other news, Lively is currently in the middle of a legal battle with It Ends With Us co-star and director Justin Baldoni, with the star suing him for alleged sexual harassment and "retaliatory scheme to silence her".

Following legal action taken last month against Baldoni and his production company Wayfarer Studios at California’s Civil Rights Department over sexual harassment and "a coordinated effort to destroy her reputation", Lively has formally sued him at federal court in New York alongside Wayfarer's CEO Jamey Heath and co-founder Steve Sarowitz.
Baldoni denied Lively's allegations and called them "completely false, outrageous and intentionally salacious with an intent to publicly hurt and rehash a narrative in the media".
The Shallows will air on BBC One this evening (January 8) at 10.40pm, and will be added to BBC iPlayer shortly after. The movie is also streaming on Netflix.
