Brandon Sklenar has chosen not to take sides in the ongoing feud between his “It Ends With Us” co-stars Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively. In an interview with CBS Mornings, Sklenar stated that he prefers to focus on the movie itself rather than getting drawn into the legal dispute.
Sklenar emphasized that the film’s true purpose should be remembered, which is to raise awareness about domestic abuse and its effects. He revealed that his close friend has been going through a similar experience, and the film helped her find the strength to change her life.
The legal battle between Lively and Baldoni is set to go to trial in March 2026, with Lively suing Baldoni for sexual harassment and emotional distress. Baldoni, on the other hand, is seeking $400 million in damages for defamation and other claims. The couple has denied all allegations.
Despite the controversy surrounding the film, “It Ends With Us” was a commercial success, earning over $351 million at the box office. Sklenar’s comments suggest that he wants to keep the focus on the movie’s positive impact rather than getting caught up in the negative publicity surrounding the feud.
