Newly unsealed legal documents reveal that Blake Lively faced harsh criticism from senior executives at Sony Pictures Entertainment during the height of the It Ends With Us controversy. Internal emails show that studio leaders believed the 38-year-old actress damaged the film’s prospects by making allegations against its director and co-star, Justin Baldoni.
According to documents unsealed on January 21 and reported by People, the emails date back to August 2024 and include candid exchanges between top Sony executives. The tone is blunt and, at times, scathing.
