Discussions about the movie “It Ends With Us,” which wrapped up its theatrical run several months back, are still a hot topic in the entertainment industry. However, this isn’t due to it being available for streaming on Netflix. Instead, there’s been a legal tussle brewing since last month between Blake Lively, the film’s lead actress and producer, and director Justin Baldoni. The dispute includes Lively filing a lawsuit against Baldoni for alleged sexual harassment and emotional distress. Interestingly, Marvel has now become embroiled in this complex scenario, and it seems to revolve around “Deadpool” and “Wolverine,” the 34th movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
According to Variety, Bryan Freedman, Baldoni’s lawyer, has sent a legal notice to Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige and Disney CEO Bob Iger regarding potential claims against Blake Lively and her husband Ryan Reynolds (who plays Deadpool), among others. The letter asks Marvel to keep all relevant documents and data related to Baldoni. This action is being taken because Freedman thinks that a specific scene in the “Nicepool” variant of Wade Wilson from Deadpool & Wolverine may have been making fun of Baldoni.

Deadpool & Wolverine Was Huge, But Rob Liefeld Shares A Big Critique That I Kind Of Agree With
In an intriguing twist of events, I was part of the team attempting to lure Chris Evans into a movie scene involving Deadpool and Wolverine. Our strategy was cleverly devised, aiming to entice him by subtly suggesting his character could interact with these iconic Marvel figures. Yet, the cunning Evans had a condition of his own: he demanded that this scene should not be part of Avengers 4. This quirky negotiation ultimately led to a unique cameo appearance in Deadpool 2, proving that sometimes, the most effective trick is one that respects an actor’s creative vision.
During the sequence, Nicepool was heard making comments such as “Where on earth is the intimacy advisor?!” and “I consider myself a feminist,” while also praising Ladypool, played by Blake Lively, for her post-pregnancy physique. Some fans suspected that Nicepool was mocking Justin Baldoni, but now Bryan Freedman’s legal hold letter is asking Disney and Marvel to keep all documents related to the creation of the “Nicepool” character, as well as communications regarding the development, scriptwriting, and filming of storylines and scenes involving Nicepool. The letter also requests that they preserve any documents showing a deliberate effort to ridicule, harass, or bully Baldoni through the character of Nicepool.
As a die-hard movie enthusiast, let me share some intriguing insights. This letter isn’t just about the infamous duo of Deadpool and Wolverine that it mentions. There are whispers of a creative rift between Ryan Reynolds and director Tim Miller, who brought the first Deadpool to life, echoing the tension between Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni. It’s no surprise that Reynolds and Miller butted heads during the making of the 2016 superhero blockbuster, leading Miller to step down from Deadpool 2. The letter advises Disney to preserve any records or data concerning complaints lodged against Ryan Reynolds by anyone, including Miller and the details surrounding his exit from the Deadpool sequel, as well as instances where Reynolds asserted creative control over any film project.
As Variety’s report indicates, Justin Baldoni hasn’t filed a lawsuit against Blake Lively or Ryan Reynolds yet, but such a precursor letter is often sent before legal action. On The Megyn Kelly Show on January 7, Bryan Freedman stated that there was no doubt Nicepool pertains to Justin due to “that hair bun,” and also mentioned his intention to sue Lively and Reynolds extensively. Since the data Marvel Studios possesses is crucial for Freedman’s lawsuit, we’ll keep you informed if significant developments occur.
You can enjoy streaming both Deadpool & Wolverine as well as the other two Deadpool films by subscribing to Disney+. By the way, did you know that “Gordon Reynolds” is credited for playing Nicepool in the third installment? And interestingly enough, in the credits of “It Ends With Us,” Blake Lively thanked a Gordon Reynolds. Isn’t that intriguing…
