In The New York Times lawsuit, the plaintiffs alleged Baldoni, Heath, other producers and the Sony representative went to Lively and Reynolds’ New York penthouse Jan. 4 to discuss resuming filming the next day.
“Instead, they were blindsided by Lively and Reynolds, who presented a list of grievances that were both anticipated and troubling,” the lawsuit adds. “Reynolds launched into a tirade, berating Baldoni in what Baldoni later described as a ‘traumatic’ encounter, stating he had ‘never been spoken to like that in his life.'”
E! News reached out to Reynolds’ rep for comment but has not heard back. While the plaintiffs called The New York Times’ report “false and defamatory,” the outlet stands by its reporting—saying the article was “meticulously and responsibly reported.”
It Ends With Us premiered in August, and Lively’s filings note “the film has been a resounding success.” However, she alleges in both complaints that Baldoni and his Wayfarer associates embarked on a “digital retaliation campaign” for her raising concern about the alleged misconduct on set.
In The New York Times lawsuit, the plaintiffs denied accusations of a retaliatory campaign and allege “that it was Lively, not Plaintiffs, who engaged in a calculated smear campaign.”
In The New York Times article, the actress denied that she or her reps planted or spread negative information about Baldoni or his company Wayfarer.
