A heated conflict during the pre-production of the 2023 film “It Ends With Us” has come to light, with newly surfaced documents showing a confrontation between Justin Baldoni and Ryan Reynolds. The dispute centers around a lift sequence that was removed from the final film, a decision Baldoni claims was forced upon him by Blake Lively.
According to the documents, Baldoni had inquired about Lively’s weight due to safety concerns for a scene, but she later claimed the scene never existed. However, Baldoni’s legal team has provided evidence showing the sequence was planned and rehearsed before it was cut from the film.
The confrontation allegedly escalated when Reynolds confronted Baldoni, accusing him of “fat-shaming” Lively. Baldoni claims he was shocked by the hostility and repeatedly apologized despite believing his question was reasonable. The dispute reportedly led to Lively issuing an ultimatum, threatening to quit the film unless her demands were met.
Baldoni’s legal team argues that this incident marked the beginning of a pattern where he was forced to comply with Lively’s demands due to a lack of viable alternatives. As the March 9, 2026, trial date approaches, both sides are doubling down on their narratives, leaving many wondering what new revelations may emerge before the case reaches court.
