It Ends With Us director Justin Baldoni promised a website that would support his allegations against Blake Lively — and now it’s live.
Us Weekly can confirm on Saturday, February 1, that the website, with the URL of “thelawsuitinfo.com,” had officially gone live with two PDF files titled “Amended Complaint” and “Timeline of Relevant Events” available to download.
The first document, titled “Amended Complaint,” is a massive 224-page tome detailing Baldoni, 41, and his production company Wayfarer Studios’ complaints against Lively, 38. The second 168-page PDF breaks down the alleged timeline of events starting in January 2019, when Baldoni first emailed author Colleen Hoover about adapting her novel It Ends With Us into a film.
Us Weekly has reached out to both Baldoni and Lively’s reps for comment.
Baldoni’s team announced that a website was forthcoming last month. “Justin and team have the right to defend themselves with the truth,” Baldoni’s lawyer, Bryan Freedman, said in a statement to Us on January 21. “And this is what we will be continuing to show with the upcoming website containing all correspondence as well as relevant videos that directly quash her claims.”
The war of words between Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively is showing no sign of stopping. Baldoni’s lawyer Bryan Freedman issued a fiery response to Lively’s claims that he is trying to taint the jury pool in their upcoming trial, notably by leaking information in an attempt to disprove the actress’ side of the story. […]
At the time, Us also obtained footage from the set of It Ends With Us from Freedman that he claimed disproved Lively’s allegations that Baldoni acted “inappropriately” toward her.
The website is a recent development in an ongoing legal battle between the It Ends With Us costars after Lively filed a lawsuit against Baldoni in December 2024. In her lawsuit, the actress accused the director of sexual harassment and creating a hostile work environment on set. Baldoni has denied the allegations.
“This lawsuit is a legal action based on an overwhelming amount of untampered evidence detailing Blake Lively and her team’s duplicitous attempt to destroy Justin Baldoni, his team and their respective companies by disseminating grossly edited, unsubstantiated, new and doctored information to the media,” Baldoni’s lawyer said in a statement to Us on Thursday, January 16. “It is clear based on our own all out willingness to provide all complete text messages, emails, video footage and other documentary evidence that was shared between the parties in real time, that this is a battle she will not win and will certainly regret. Blake Lively was either severely misled by her team or intentionally and knowingly misrepresented the truth.”
That same day, Baldoni and Wayfarer Studios filed a lawsuit against Lively, her publicist Leslie Sloan, and Lively’s husband Ryan Reynolds. In the filing, he accused the trio of civil extortion, defamation, false light invasion of privacy and more. Baldoni is seeking $400 million in damages.
Blake Lively‘s legal team has responded to the new It Ends With Us video footage released by Justin Baldoni’s attorney. “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. Every frame of the released footage corroborates, to the […]
“This latest lawsuit from Justin Baldoni, Wayfarer Studios and its associates is another chapter in the abuser playbook. This is an age-old story: A woman speaks up with concrete evidence of sexual harassment and retaliation and the abuser attempts to turn the tables on the victim,” Lively’s lawyers told Us in a statement responding to Baldoni’s lawsuit.
“This is what experts call DARVO. Deny. Attack. Reverse Victim Offender,” the statement continued. “Wayfarer has opted to use the resources of its billionaire co-founder to issue media statements, launch meritless lawsuits, and threaten litigation to overwhelm the public’s ability to understand that what they are doing is retaliation against sexual harassment allegations.”
Per Variety, Lively and Reynolds, 48, had informed a federal judge on Thursday, January 30, that they would move to dismiss the lawsuit filed against them by Baldoni. Each side’s lawyers are set to appear in court on Monday, February 3, in the case’s first hearing.
