Blake Lively Raises Surprising Allegations in Revised Lawsuit; Justin Baldoni’s Team Responds

A new chapter has unfolded in the legal dispute between Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni. Following Lively’s lawsuit against her co-star and director from ‘It Ends With Us’ and Baldoni’s countersuit, fresh allegations have emerged. On February 18, Lively updated her lawsuit, making startling claims against Baldoni.

In the revised complaint, Lively’s legal team expanded their case against Baldoni by nearly 50 pages, elaborating on her original allegations of sexual harassment and retaliation. The new filing asserts that Baldoni’s behavior made not only Lively uncomfortable but also other women on the set of ‘It Ends With Us.’ Additionally, it alleges that Baldoni posed invasive questions regarding her intimate life with husband Ryan Reynolds.

According to Page Six, the updated complaint contains serious accusations, including Baldoni’s alleged attempt to compel Lively to simulate an orgasm on set. The two eventually agreed to cut the scene, although Baldoni reportedly made a last-minute effort to retain it, citing a personal reason. He claimed it was vital for the film since he and his wife, Emily, experience simultaneous orgasms during intercourse. The complaint states that Baldoni then inappropriately asked Lively if she and Reynolds had similar experiences, which she found intrusive and refused to discuss.

The amended lawsuit highlights that Lively was one of the women Baldoni “one million percent” made uncomfortable on set. The document notes that Lively wasn’t alone in feeling uneasy; Baldoni and his production company, Wayfarer, were aware of the situation. After Lively expressed her concerns in May 2023, another female cast member shared her discomfort with Sony’s Ange Giannetti and a producer. Despite the seriousness of her concerns, the lawsuit claims Wayfarer Studios failed to investigate or take necessary precautions.

The issue reportedly resurfaced on June 8, when the same cast member confided in Lively about worsening conditions on set. Lively revealed her own struggles in communicating with Baldoni, seeking to mask her discomfort with busyness. The complaint further indicates that another female cast member also expressed her unease to Lively. Notably, the lawsuit states that these incidents were documented one year before the film’s editing began. While the two women involved were not named, they have granted Lively permission to share their communications and are willing to testify during the discovery process.

In response, Baldoni and Wayfarer’s legal team refuted Lively’s claims, stating, “Our clients have provided transparent evidence that tells a very different story than what has been selectively presented to the media.” They emphasized that Lively’s amended complaint consists largely of hearsay from unnamed individuals who have allegedly backed away from supporting her claims. They asserted that the upcoming depositions of witnesses will be revealing, arguing that it is Lively’s lack of concrete evidence that is truly concerning.
