Ryan Reynolds Did Not Want to Reprise Deadpool Role Amid Blake Lively ‘It Ends With Us’ Lawsuit

by

As a long-time fan with over two decades of following Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds’ careers, I must say that this recent development is both heartbreaking and inspiring. It’s heartbreaking to see such talented individuals embroiled in a situation like this, but it’s inspiring to see Blake standing up for herself amidst the toxicity she allegedly faced on set.

The couple has subtly suggested that recent workplace exposés involving and Justin Baldoni may have affected them. They emphasized this point in a new Instagram post, promoting their ongoing campaign with Sick Kids Hospital. Reynolds, who participated in an ad campaign for the charity while dressed as Deadpool, admitted in the post that he wasn’t particularly enthusiastic about wearing the suit at the time.

Over the weekend, it became known that Lively is filing a lawsuit against her costar Baldoni, which has since sparked widespread media attention. Since then, various opinions on the issue have surfaced on social media, with some supporting Lively and others expressing opposition. Furthermore, several Hollywood celebrities and the studio behind their film, “It Ends With Us,” produced by Sony Pictures, have expressed support for Lively’s statements. On the other hand, Baldoni’s legal team has vigorously denied the accusations, while the individual accused of orchestrating a “smear campaign” against Lively has also responded to the allegations.

As a dedicated movie enthusiast, I’ve been noticing that Ryan Reynolds seems to be carrying a weighty concern, hinted at by his recent social media update. Filming his latest video just last month, it appears this looming legal matter has been on his mind for some time. His full post reads:

“It’s almost Christmas Eve. Last day to donate to [Sick Kids Hospital]. [Blake Lively] and I are matching any donation to $500k. This organization is a sanctuary for so many kids and their parents traversing the unimaginable. Thank you [Bryan Rowland]for directing this amazing little piece during a time I really didn’t feel like putting the suit on. Thank you [Lynda Carter] for your time, grace and talent. Thank you to my daughter for being such a good person despite your dad asking you to swear (for a good cause).”

Blake Lively’s Lawsuit is Just Getting Started

As a film enthusiast, I’ve been following the unfolding drama surrounding the allegations made by Lively against Baldoni. For months, there’ve been whispers and reports about a troubled set while filming It Ends With Us. The details were hazy then, leading some to question Lively’s seemingly reluctant promotional efforts for the movie. However, with the recent revelation of her lawsuit against Baldoni for sexual harassment and emotional distress, it seems all cards are now on the table, inviting everyone to voice their opinions.

At present, the situation connected to the case is rapidly changing. Apart from statements issued through his legal representative denying all accusations, Baldoni himself has remained silent on the issue. Nevertheless, he has been released by WME agency following the filing of the lawsuit, and hasn’t received the same backing as Lively from fellow cast members or even Sony itself.

In this particular situation, there’s a considerable distance yet to be covered before we have all the details, but initially, it seems that Lively is garnering backing from various quarters, which could significantly influence popular sentiment in the court of public opinion.
