Blake Lively's Lawsuit Against Justin Baldoni Narrows

On April 2nd, a federal judge just tossed out most of Blake Liveley's lawsuit claims

against Justin Baldoni, her co-star and director on the film It, ends with us.

Out of 13 claims, 10 got dismissed, including sexual harassment, conspiracy, and defamation.

The three left standing for trial are breach of contract, retaliation, and aiding retaliation.

Liveley's team says the core issue is retaliation for her pushing safety on set,

and the harassment claim failed because she was ruled an independent contractor, not an employee.

That movie pulled in over $350 million worldwide in 2024, but the behind-the-scenes drama stole

the spotlight. Earlier rulings wiped out Baldoni's $400 million defamation suit

against Liveley and her husband Ryan Reynolds, plus her emotional. Distress claims.

Private messages got unsealed too, showing Liveley venting to folks like Taylor Swift.

With mediation failing last month, the narrowed case heads to trial in May,

shining more light on the playbook of attacks while both sides keep taking. Hits to their images.
