00:00Justin Baldoni's new website completely exposes Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds

00:04and this is the kind of thing Blake was hoping would not come out.

00:07Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds are seeking to dismiss Justin Baldoni's $400 million lawsuit against them.

00:13Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds to ask federal court to drop Justin Baldoni's $400 million suit amid legal battles.

00:21Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni have been flinging allegations for months,

00:24but fans were still caught off guard when Justin dropped his brand new website.

00:28The It Ends With Us director has launched a website that includes an amended $400 million complaint.

00:34Justin unveiled a treasure trove of evidence.

00:37According to TMZ, the site links straight to the amended version of Justin's whopping $400 million lawsuit against Blake,

00:45her husband Ryan Reynolds, and her publicist Leslie Sloan.

00:49Justin also shared a filed document containing alleged screenshots of texts exchanged between him and Blake.

00:55It also leads viewers to a 168-page timeline jam-packed with never-before-seen emails,

01:01text exchanges, and behind-the-scenes tidbits from the production of It Ends With Us.

01:07Essentially, Justin is going all-in on transparency,

01:11claiming that these materials prove he's not the big bad wolf that Blake's complaints make him out to be.

01:16Justin Baldoni claiming she tried to destroy his reputation behind the scenes of It Ends With Us.

01:22Longtime onlookers recall the fiasco began late 2024 when Blake accused Justin of stepping way out of line,

01:29both personally and professionally, during the making of their 2024 film adaptation of Colleen Hoover's beloved novel.

01:36She filed a formal suit alleging serious overreach on Justin's partaking, like making weird remarks,

01:43pushing her comfort boundaries, orchestrating a so-called campaign after she confronted him.

01:48Justin denied it all.

01:50But fans had only gotten bits and pieces of each side of the story.

01:54Now, with his new website, Justin's dropping entire text logs that show a pretty friendly Blake at times.

02:01It's definitely raising eyebrows about how drastically their relationship soured.

02:05Are these messages a final blow to her claims, or carefully selected out of context to spin the narrative?

02:11That's a question swirling across social media, and with the trial date set for March 2026, the drama is nowhere near finished.

02:18One of the biggest gasps from Justin's website is a text from Blake referencing her love language.

02:23When she brought it up, she described it as spicy and playfully bold.

02:28She calls it ball-busting, but clarifies it's never with teeth.

02:32She told Justin never to take her teasing too seriously.

02:35Talk about a big pivot from her official suit.

02:38Meanwhile, a message from Ryan Reynolds turned up, calling Justin dynamic,

02:42saying he was stoked to see Blake crack open her creative piggy bank with Justin.

02:46Fans have latched onto that line, seeing as it's proof that at some point,

02:51Ryan wholeheartedly endorsed Justin's collaboration with his wife,

02:55contradicting the rumors he tried to push Justin out of the loop.

02:58But perhaps the most eyebrow-raising detail is Blake's apparent decision to skip meeting the intimacy coordinator early on.

03:04She texted Justin that she'd link up with the coordinator when filming started,

03:08which doesn't exactly scream she was uncomfortable from day one.

03:12None of this definitively proves or disproves any wrongdoing, of course,

03:16as critics point out early texts can be friendly even if tensions blow up later.

03:20But Justin's supporters feel vindicated, insisting these messages show a cohesive,

03:26working relationship until everything randomly went haywire.

03:30If the site has more like these, it might be tough for Blake's team to paint a picture

03:34of an ongoing nightmare environment on set, at least from the get-go.

03:37Justin Baldoni was legit scared of Blake Lively while filming.

03:40In May 2023, Justin texted someone he was terrified of telling Blake that fan backlash

03:45had emerged about her leaked look.

03:47He's worried she'd interpret his approach as pushy or invasive, especially given she'd just had a baby.

03:53This precisely is the kind of scenario that could feed allegations against Blake's complaint

03:57that Justin was too fixated on how she looked post-pregnancy, or made suggestive comments.

04:02Yet, the new logs might cast it as Justin simply grappling with how to tactfully bring up

04:07fan concerns, nothing salacious there, unless you think even acknowledging

04:11a postpartum appearance is crossing a line.

04:13Justin's site also claims he has screenshots verifying how he tried to handle everything

04:18respectively, including letting the film's intimacy coordinator know about any sensitive scenes.

04:24It's definitely a he said she said situation, but with all these texts laid bare,

04:28fans get a deeper glimpse of how anxious Justin was.

04:31Some find it relatable, a director trying not to step on anyone's toes.

04:35Others remain unconvinced, feeling that text snippets can't possibly show everything said face

04:40to face.

04:40The real question is whether a judge or jury might view these tidbits as evidence that

04:45Justin was being cautious rather than predatory, undermining Blake's story,

04:49or if it just highlights his own insecurity about confronting her,

04:53which might have led to the meltdown.

04:55Ryan Reynolds wanted to control the final cut of It Ends With Us with Blake.

04:59Plenty of fans kept asking, where does Ryan Reynolds fit in?

05:02The newly updated suit names him specifically, as well as Blake's publicist, Leslie Sloan,

05:07for allegedly supporting her and orchestrating a narrative to undermine Justin's credibility.

05:12According to Justin's camp, it's not just about personal grudges.

05:15They claim the real reason that Blake, and presumably Ryan by extension,

05:18wanted to control the final cut of It Ends With Us was to amplify her brand.

05:23Justin said that once he stood up for his directional vision,

05:26they retaliated.

05:27The star is even seeking a draw dropping $400 million in damages.

05:32Justin has hit Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, and her publicist, Leslie Sloan, $400 million lawsuit.

05:39A lot of folks find that figure staggering, but sources on Justin's side claim that

05:43it's only that big because of the potential financial repercussions he faced.

05:47He was apparently dropped by certain agencies and lost prospective deals after the alleged campaign.

05:53Meanwhile, Blake and Ryan are rumored to have a combined net worth close to that amount.

05:57Some fans see it as Justin's strategic way of battling heavyweights

06:00who could easily bounce back from a smaller sum.

06:03Others say it's outlandish or purely for shock value,

06:07but either way it underscores how massive this feud really is.

06:10This isn't just two co-stars bickering, it's a high stakes standoff

06:14that might bankrupt someone if the ruling doesn't go their way.

06:17On top of everything, Blake and Ryan recently asked for a gag order against Justin's attorney,

06:22Brian Friedman.

06:23They argue Friedman's constant media appearances and talk of receipts

06:28could seriously muddy the waters for potential jurors.

06:31Friedman fired back, calling it ironic that Blake is petrified of the truth.

06:35He points out that her side went public with allegations first,

06:38possibly trying to taint the publicist's view of him.

06:41Now that Justin's dropping his own drama, Friedman believes they're scrambling to muzzle him.

06:47Fans on social media are divided.

06:48One camp says Friedman's tactics come off as a PR blitz,

06:51basically an attempt to trial by tabloid.

06:53Another insists that Blake's allegations were truly airtight.

06:56She wouldn't be freaked out by the full story coming out.

06:59Some think both sides are playing games.

07:01Blake by releasing carefully worded allegations in the high profile outlets like the New York Times

07:06and Justin by publishing selective evidence to a new website.

07:09The It Ends With Us director has launched a website that includes an amended $400 million complaint.

07:15Ultimately, the judge has yet to rule on any gag order,

07:18so the dueling public statements continue for now.

07:20But with a March 2026 trial date looming,

07:22the drama could intensify if both sides keep dropping partial receipts to spin the narrative.

07:27We're looking at a slow crawl towards the 2026 date where the whole truth comes out.

07:31The newly unveiled messages are just a portion of what Justin claims to have.

07:35Friedman's famous quip, we all have the receipts,

07:38and more hints that the website might expand with deeper revelations.

07:41Meanwhile, Blake hasn't commented specifically on the new leaks, but stands by her claims.

07:46If you believe the fiasco is winding down, think again.

07:49It appears we're only scraping the surface of the documentation each side has saved.

07:54Industry insiders are calling it one of Hollywood's worst co-star fiascos in recent memory,

07:59especially since It Ends With Us started as a big hopeful collaboration,

08:03aiming to be the next big romance drama.

08:06Now, fans who once followed the film for the love story are glued to real life drama,

08:10overshadowing all that box office success.

08:13Some people worry that once the dust settles, neither star's reputation will remain unscathed.

08:18Others see Justin as a potential martyr if the side turns to his favour,

08:21or suspect that Blake and Ryan's star power might keep them afloat no matter what happens.

08:26One looming question is how the rest of the industry might respond.

08:30Will studios shy away from hiring them?

08:32Is publicity in Hollywood always a good thing?

08:35The only certainty is that the internet can't get enough of this.

08:38The site's text logs practically broke Twitter, prompting endless theories.

08:42Did Blake secretly flirt with Justin early on,

08:45then get spooked when Ryan became suspicious?

08:48Did Justin truly face a cunning plan to dethrone him from his own movie?

08:52The fans surely want answers,

08:54and the final word may only come across when all of these receipts surface in a courtroom.

08:58With so many turns already, it's anybody's guess how this drama ends.

09:01What do you guys think about the website?

09:02Did you go through it?

09:03Let me know in the comments and I hope you have a great day.
