The legal battle between Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively is grabbing headlines. The actor-director was sued by Blake for sexual misconduct while working on It Ends With Us. Now, Justin has levelled several allegations to counter the claims made in the actress’ lawsuit.
In a lawsuit filed on New Year’s Eve, Justin Baldoni accused Blake Lively of keeping him and his Wayfarer Studios out of It Ends With Us’ premiere. In the USD 250 million lawsuit against The New York Times, Baldoni maintained that Lively tried to sabotage his career.
Justin Baldoni also claimed that Blake Lively and her husband, actor Ryan Reynolds started a campaign against him. He was also allegedly stopped from attending the It Ends With Us premiere. He eventually attended the premiere with limited red carpet time along with his family.
Justin was also allegedly barred from attending an exclusive after-party with the film’s cast and crew. The lawsuit accuses Blake and Ryan of “stealing” the movie from him. Baldoni also mentions that Reynolds pressured his former agency WME to drop him as a client. The agency had dropped him after Blake’s lawsuit was filed.
