Another day, another bizarre development in Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively’s legal feud. Since Lively accused her It Ends With Us director and co-star of sexually harassing her on set and retaliating with a social-media smear campaign — allegations he denies — the two have been locked in a court battle that has involved several more lawsuits and thousands of leaked text messages. On Saturday, Baldoni and his legal team made good on their threat to launch a website containing evidence they claim clears his name.
So far, the site, which went live on Saturday and can be found at thelawsuitinfo.com, appears to be a mostly empty landing page. Deadline observed that it “reeks of 1995 in its online sophistication” while also describing its contents as “underwhelming” and “blatantly one-sided.” Bizarrely, Baldoni’s and Lively’s names are nowhere to be seen on the site itself — there are just two documents for download under the words LAWSUIT INFO. (Both documents were also filed in New York court on Saturday.) One is an amended version of Baldoni’s mid-January complaint, in which he accused Lively of extortion and defamation, claiming she fabricated her allegations against him to save her reputation after wresting creative control of It Ends With Us. The other is a 168-page “timeline” that spans from 2019 to January 2025 and somehow includes even more texts and emails than we have already seen between Baldoni, Lively, and various collaborators of theirs, including Colleen Hoover and a personal trainer they once shared.
If Baldoni is going to make us read an excessive number of texts between himself and Ryan Reynolds, the least he could do is consider a Squarespace subscription.
