Blake Lively will receive just over $400,000 of the $8 million she sought in legal fees from actor and director Justin Baldoni following the settlement of their legal battle over the production of their 2024 film It Ends With Us, a federal judge ruled Wednesday.
In a written decision, Manhattan Judge Lewis J. Liman explained why Lively was not entitled to the full amount her lawyers said she had incurred after Baldoni and his production company, Wayfarer Studios LLC, filed counterclaims in response to her December 2024 lawsuit.
