Blake Lively Preparing to Testify Against Justin Baldoni
Briefly

Blake Lively is set to testify in her trial against Justin Baldoni regarding alleged misconduct on the set of 'It Ends With Us.' Her lawyer, Mike Gottlieb, confirmed that several witnesses will also provide testimony about the situation, highlighting that Lively's claims of misconduct are central to the case. However, Gottlieb dismissed subpoenas for high-profile figures Taylor Swift and Hugh Jackman as irrelevant. Conversely, Baldoni's lawyer suggested that Lively had brought her celebrity friends into the legal fray, affecting their reputations.
The ultimate moment for a plaintiff's story to be told is at trial. We expect that to be the case here [with Lively]. So we would, of course, expect her to be a witness at her trial.
There are individuals that were witnesses to or experienced misconduct that is relevant to Ms. Lively's claims. We expect their testimony, particularly about what took place on set, will come out through live witness testimony.
This is a case about what happened to Blake Lively when she raised claims of sexual harassment on the set. It's not a case about how songs were chosen for the movie. It's not a case about fictional Marvel characters in Deadpool movies.
Baldoni's lawyer Bryan Freedman alleged Lively was 'the one who brought her high-profile friends into this situation without concern for their own personal or public backlash.'
