Overview

• Blake Lively filed a lawsuit in December 2024 against Justin Baldoni and Wayfarer Studios, alleging sexual harassment and a retaliatory smear campaign.
• Justin Baldoni countersued in January 2025 for $400 million, accusing Lively, Ryan Reynolds, and others of defamation and related claims.
• In February 2025, Lively amended her lawsuit to include testimony from multiple women alleging inappropriate behavior by Baldoni on set.
• Jenny Slate, who initially supported Lively publicly, has reportedly filed an HR complaint against Jamey Heath, CEO of Wayfarer Studios, during the production of 'It Ends With Us.'
