Overview

  • Blake Lively's attorney has confirmed that she will testify in the March 2026 trial against her 'It Ends With Us' co-star and director Justin Baldoni.
  • The trial stems from Lively's allegations of sexual harassment and a retaliatory smear campaign, which Baldoni denies, countersuing for $400 million over defamation and extortion claims.
  • Lively's team plans to introduce evidence, including documents and testimonies from witnesses who allegedly experienced or observed misconduct on set.
  • Baldoni's legal team has proposed subpoenaing high-profile figures like Taylor Swift and Hugh Jackman, a move Lively's attorney has criticized as irrelevant and headline-seeking.
  • Both parties are preparing to present unedited footage, documents, and statements as part of the discovery process, with each side disputing the other's narrative.
