An attorney for actor Justin Baldoni asked a federal judge on Thursday to throw out Blake Lively’s lawsuit related to their 2024 film It Ends with Us, arguing that her sexual harassment and retaliation case amounts to no more than “petty slights.”
Lawyers representing Lively rejected that characterization, alleging that Baldoni and other defendants took liberties to foster a sexually charged work environment during production that marginalized women, and later publicly attacked Lively after she raised concerns.
