A sequence of the filming of Never Again was revealed by Justin Baldoni. Supposed to defend his point of view, it also inflames the situation between the actor and Blake Lively.
More “Entertainment”
Never again will the names of Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni be separated. The co-stars starring in the feature film It Ends with Us (Never Againin French) continue to wage war against each other. As a reminder, at the end of December, Blake Lively filed a complaint for sexual assault against Justin Baldoni who is also the director and producer of the film. Accusations that he denies outright. He himself filed a complaint for defamation.
Since then, there have been declarations, pieces of WhatsApp conversations revealed, emails shared with the celebrity press… In short, war has been declared. Blake Lively also accuses him of launching a smear campaign against her to minimize her accusations.
This Tuesday, January 21, Justin Baldoni threw yet another stone into trouble. He revealed, through the media, a video of the shooting dating from May 23, 2023, supposed to exonerate him. For about ten minutes, we see him with Blake Lively dancing, whispering things to each other, smiling at each other. Justin Baldoni who plays Ryle Kincaid tries to kiss his partner several times. But Blake Lively avoids his kisses by turning her head and making him understand that it would be more romantic if they talked.
The sequence can be seen here:
An awkward moment follows where the actor tries to defuse the situation by saying:
“I know you and Ryan talk all the time.”
Justin Baldoni is referring to Blake Lively’s husband, actor Ryan Gosling.
“Oh my God, we never shut up”
“Emily and I have these moments where…”
Justin Baldoni is married to Emily Baldoni.
“…you just look at yourself”
“Clearly we already did it for 5 minutes… You would find it terrifying”
Then “ahaha!” embarrassed by Blake Lively.
“Yes, I would say to myself: oh no, a sociopath”
“And time stops”
“No, we (Ryan Gosling and her) are here: there is not enough time to talk during the day”
-The more the conversation progresses, the more Justin Baldoni seems to be walking on eggshells:
“You are a cute couple”
“No, it’s more than cool”
In this video, we also hear them joking about the length of Justin Baldoni’s nose or Blake Lively’s self-tanner, a moment of complicity supposed to prove that everything was done with the agreement of the actress. But this attempted kiss was not in the script, according to the actress’s lawyers. They responded in the media Deadline:
“Every image broadcast corroborates (his words). The video shows Mr. Baldoni repeatedly leaning toward Ms. Lively, trying to kiss her, kissing her forehead, rubbing his face and mouth against her neck, brushing her lips with his thumb, caressing her, telling her how She smells good. »
They add:
“Every moment was improvised by Mr. Baldoni without discussion or prior consent, and without the presence of an intimacy coordinator. (…) The video shows Ms. Lively walking away and repeatedly asking the characters to just talk. Any woman who has been touched inappropriately in the workplace will recognize Ms. Lively’s discomfort.
This video aims to sway public opinion towards Justin Baldoni. And it works, to read the comments on social networks: some complain about the actor for having to play with Blake Lively, others criticize the actress for making fun of the actor’s nose. Still others point out that Justin Baldoni remains professional until the end. Justin Baldoni won this battle.
