The lawyer of Blake Lively supports Justin Baldoni, who will bring Ryan Reynolds and Taylor Swift to a legal dispute of $ 400 million. Here is what he said

The lawyer of Blake Lively, Mike Gottlieb, criticized Justin Baldoni's legal team about her reported plan, Ryan Reynolds, her close friend Taylor Swift, Ryan Reynolds, Taylor Swift in an upcoming legal proceedings for March 9, 2026.

“It is completely unclear what demands or defense if one of these celebrities … is relevant at all,” said Gottlieb. Reports from April suggested that everyone in the inner circles could receive vivid or Baldoni, including Reynolds and Swift, during the pre -judicial discovery period.

Baldoni's legal team has accused Reynolds of mocking Baldoni by a figure named Nicepool in the Film Deadpool & Wolverine 2024 and naming it as “thinly veiled excavation”. Reynolds and Marvel denied the claim. Court documents also indicate that Swift and Reynolds may be input in a roof scene in the IT scene with us, based on text exchanges with living.

Gottlieb, however, dismissed these points and said: “This is a case about what happened to Blake Lively when she raised claims for sexual harassment on the set. It is not a case of how songs were selected for the film. There is no case about fictitious Marvel characters in Deadpool films.”

He added: “You cannot simply avoid the lectures because you are famous and you think it will generate a number of headlines. And the federal courts do not tolerate this kind of behavior.”

Gottlieb warned that the inclusion of top -class witnesses could lead to a media circus, and added that they do not expect the process to become a spectacle with every celebrity that may ever have spoken to Blake Lively or Ryan Reynolds.

In response to this, Baldoni's lawyer Bryan Freedman said to the people: “Although obviously it feels uncomfortable for the lively parties, the truth is not a distraction … Blake was the one who brought her top -class friends into this situation.” Freedman continued: “Ryan's participation was very well documented. It was Disney in Ryan to use the shareholders to promote a personal resentment?”

While LIVELY's team aimed to restrict prominent participation in the exam, Gottlieb confirmed that Blake Lively was expected. He said they expect them to be witness in their own process and added that others who saw events on the set would also be testimony.

The legal dispute began when Blake Lively submitted a lawsuit for sexual harassment against Justin Baldoni in December 2024. In response to this, Baldoni submitted a defamation of $ 400 million in January 2025, in which it was said that Livelely had tried to fill him as a “real life weight” in order to attract attention from her support transactions.

LIVELY's team stated that Sony later asked her to monitor the final cuts of IT Ends with us, which performed well. Her spokesman said that Baldoni's response to the allegations of the victim was responsible and added that the strategy of attacking a woman in such cases was desperate and failed.
