00:00
Justin Baldoni's lawyer is addressing a new possibility in the director's lawsuit against Blake Lively.
00:05
As the It Ends With Us actors continued their legal battle,
00:09
Justin's lawyer Brian Friedman detailed whether he would bring Blake's longtime pal Taylor Swift
00:14
into the mix for a deposition as she was subtly referenced in their initial filings.
00:20
He says on TMZ's Two Angry Men podcast February 5th,
00:23
quote,
00:24
I don't know that we're going to depose Taylor Swift or not.
00:27
I think that that's going to be probably a game time decision.
00:31
The attorney noted that if Taylor could provide helpful details to support Justin's case,
00:35
he wouldn't hesitate to depose the Karma singer, saying,
00:38
quote,
00:39
Anyone that reasonably has information that can provide
00:41
evidence in this case is going to be deposed. I mean, for sure.
00:45
E! News has reached out to reps for Taylor regarding Brian's comments but has not heard back.
00:50
Although Taylor wasn't involved in the It Ends With Us film,
00:53
her song My Tears Ricochet played in a single scene and trailer.
00:56
She also was alluded to in pieces of evidence provided in Justin's January 16th legal filing
01:02
when he sued Blake, her husband Ryan Reynolds, and their publicist for $400 million.
01:08
In the filing, Justin alleges that Blake pressured him to grant her more creative
01:12
freedoms with the help of Ryan and another mega celebrity friend.
01:16
Although the name of the said pal was redacted for most of the evidence,
01:21
one use of the name Taylor was left uncovered in a provided text conversation
01:26
in which Justin lauds a scene that Blake had rewritten.
01:29
In other evidence filed January 31st, the 41-year-old alleged that the Gossip Girl
01:34
alum had made a veiled threat to have Taylor's song removed from the film
01:38
if the 37-year-old's demands were not fulfilled.
01:41
Despite the era's tour performer's name being tossed around amid Justin and Blake's legal
01:46
back and forth, Justin filed his lawsuit weeks after Blake sued the director for
01:50
sexual harassment and retaliation.
01:53
After rumors circulated that Blake and Taylor's 10-year friendship
01:56
was in jeopardy due to the drama, a source told E! News, quote, it's not true.
