Blake Lively<\/strong><\/a>\u2019s sexual harassment and retaliation lawsuit against Justin Baldoni<\/strong> has taken a new turn. On February 18, she amended her legal complaint, claiming two other cast members also raised concerns about the It Ends With Us<\/em> leading man and director, 41, amid production. One actress allegedly reported her apprehension over his \u201cunwelcome behavior\u201d to Sony execs, according to the latest court filing, while another purportedly confided straight to Blake, 37, that \u201cshe too felt uncomfortable on set.\u201d<\/p>\n Neither woman has been identified as of now. But the documents promise that, during the discovery process of Justin and Blake\u2019s ongoing and increasingly contentious case, \u201cthey will testify.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cBlake will not be intimidated by Justin and his legal team; she stands by her story, 100-percent,\u201d an insider exclusively tells Life & Style<\/em>, noting Justin has been similarly aggressive with his own $400M suit against Blake and husband Ryan Reynolds<\/strong><\/a>, 48. \u201cEvery move she makes, Justin seems to make another. His reputation is in tatters and he\u2019s determined to clear his name, so this isn\u2019t likely to end anytime soon.\u201d<\/p>\n The former costars are set to go to trial next year. In the meantime, lawyers for Justin have slammed Blake\u2019s most recent accusations, insisting there\u2019s a \u201clack of actual evidence.\u201d Though rumors of a rift had been swirling since at least August 2024<\/a>, when It Ends With Us<\/em> premiered, Blake didn\u2019t break her silence on the subject until December 2024, submitting a complaint with the California Civil Rights Department \u2014 and then, days later, filing an official lawsuit. She alleged Justin had created a hostile work environment, entering her trailer while she was breastfeeding, attempting to add gratuitous sex scenes and more. Additionally, Blake claimed Justin\u2019s PR team tried to tarnish her reputation after she pushed back.<\/p>\n Not only has Justin denied any wrongdoing, but he\u2019s also leveled his own accusations of bullying, extortion and defamation<\/a>. To back up his claims \u2014 which Blake\u2019s team denies \u2014 the actor has leaked alleged texts and emails with her, as well as raw footage from the making of their 2024 movie. \u201cFor Blake, the legal battle isn\u2019t about money, it\u2019s the principle of the matter,\u201d says the insider. \u201cBut with Justin equally motivated, this fight is seemingly going to loom over them both for a very long time.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\nHE SAID, SHE SAID<\/h2>\n
