"It Ends with Us" director Justin Baldoni accused Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds of defamation, while Lively's team says his attack is "desperate."
LOS ANGELES (AP) — “It Ends With Us” actor and director Justin Baldoni has sued his co-star Blake Lively and her husband, “Deadpool” actor Ryan Reynolds, for defamation and extortion on Thursday in the latest move in a bitter legal battle surrounding the dark romantic drama.
Ryan Reynolds is investing in another soccer team after a successful run with the English club Wrexham A.F.C. in recent years, amid the ongoing lawsuits between him, his wife Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni.
Baldoni, his studio Wayfarer, and their publicists are alleging civil extortion, defamation and a slew of contract-related claims about the film It Ends With Us.
Baldoni’s lawyer, Bryan Freedman, had said for weeks he planned to file a suit against Lively, Baldoni’s co-star on “It End With Us,” and Reynolds, Lively’s husband.
The lawsuit is the latest legal action in a feud tied to the 2024 film “It Ends With Us,” which starred Ms. Lively and Mr. Baldoni, who also directed the film.
