we got to talk about this Justin Baldoni, Blake Lively situation Because we just got a huge update. right, because Baldoni, he just took a huge L in his legal battle against lively. But understand the case is still far from over. right, because yesterday you had a judge dismissing the $400 million lawsuit that Justin filed against Blake, where he accused her and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, of defamation and extortion. Which, to give you just enough background for those that haven’t lived and breathed this story: both Blake and Justin, starred in the film It Ends With Us, which Justin also directed. with the two not walking off That set as friends, to say the least. right, In December, you had Blake filing a civil complaint and then eventually a lawsuit where she claims she was s*xually harassed and then retaliated against during production. and Then in January, you had Justin and his production company filing his lawsuit, where he accused Blake, Ryan and their publicist of trying to destroy his career and take over control of the film. And then actually, he also sued The New York Times, which was the first outlet to report on Blake’s allegations. But then all of that bringing us to yesterday, where you had a judge tossing out his complaints, ruling that the allegations that Blake made in her suit are exempt from libel claims, and that Justin’s assertions that Blake stole creative control of the movie, they don’t count as extortion. with The judge writing that the complaint did not adequately state that Blake’s quote, “threats were wrongful extortion rather than legally permissible hard bargaining or renegotiation of working conditions.” And a very big thing that a number of people have really missed is that the judge left the door open for Justin’s camp to pursue different claims related to Blake potentially breaching her contract. but follow to a stay in the loop.
