Blake Lively Breaks Silence on Justin Baldoni’s ‘It Ends With Us’ Footage, Claims Harassment Confirmed

January 22, 2025

In a dramatic turn of events that has Hollywood buzzing, Blake Lively has come forward with a scathing critique of the unedited footage released by Justin Baldoni from their film, “It Ends With Us.” Lively, who accused Baldoni of sexual harassment on the set, asserts that the newly released video only serves to validate her claims, igniting a firestorm of controversy in the industry.

The saga began when Lively filed a complaint with the California Civil Rights Department, accusing Baldoni, who was both her co-star and director, of creating a hostile work environment through what she described as “repeated sexual harassment and other disturbing behavior.” The complaint came with allegations of a smear campaign orchestrated by Baldoni and his team to damage her reputation following the accusations.

Recently, in an attempt to clear his name, Baldoni’s legal team released nearly 10 minutes of raw footage from a scene where the two actors are seen slow-dancing, aiming to prove there was no harassment. However, Lively’s response was swift and vehement. Her legal team stated, “Justin Baldoni and his lawyer may hope that this latest stunt will get ahead of the damaging evidence against him, but the video itself is damning.” They argue that every frame of the footage corroborates Lively’s allegations, particularly highlighting moments where Baldoni allegedly leaned in for kisses, touched Lively inappropriately, and made personal comments without prior discussion or consent.

Lively’s team emphasized that the absence of an intimacy coordinator during these scenes was a significant breach, especially given Baldoni’s roles as director and head of the studio, making him Lively’s superior. “Every moment of this was improvised by Mr. Baldoni with no discussion or consent in advance, and no intimacy coordinator present,” they declared, painting a picture of professional misconduct.

This legal battle has not only divided fans but also drawn support from Lively’s peers. Notable figures from the entertainment industry, including her “Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants” co-stars and director Paul Feig, have publicly stood by her, condemning the alleged smear campaign against her.

On the other side, Baldoni’s camp has fiercely contested these allegations, with his lawyer, Bryan Freedman, describing Lively’s complaint as “full of false accusations” designed to salvage her reputation amidst the film’s promotion backlash. Baldoni’s team has also initiated legal action against The New York Times for libel over its coverage of the situation, claiming the newspaper has engaged in a coordinated smear campaign against him.

The release of this footage and the subsequent statements from Lively’s side have only escalated the drama, with social media platforms like X ablaze with opinions, theories, and support for both parties. The discourse has highlighted broader industry issues regarding power dynamics, consent, and the treatment of actors on set.

As both legal teams prepare for courtroom battles, with Baldoni’s side planning to present more evidence through a dedicated website, the entertainment world watches closely. This case might be more than just about Lively and Baldoni; it could set precedents for how allegations of harassment and retaliation are handled in Hollywood.

For now, Blake Lively stands firm, her silence broken not just to defend her reputation but to advocate for a change in how women are treated in the workplace, especially in an industry known for its complex power structures and the silencing of voices. The truth, as Lively and her legal team assert, is visible frame by frame in the very footage meant to refute her claims.
