As a seasoned cinema enthusiast with decades of experience under my belt, I must say that the ongoing drama surrounding Blake Lively’s movie “It Ends With Us” has been nothing short of intriguing. The film itself was a captivating watch, but the behind-the-scenes saga has kept me hooked like a fish on the line.
As a passionate cinephile, I can’t help but share my thoughts on the whirlwind surrounding Blake Lively’s movie, “It Ends With Us” (now available with a Netflix subscription). The lead-up to its theater release was anything but ordinary. With Lively making headlines for her unconventional press junket antics and whispers of tension between her and co-star/director Justin Baldoni, the situation took an unexpected turn when Lively filed a sexual harassment lawsuit against the production company. To make matters worse, allegations of a smear campaign texted by Baldoni surfaced, which he denies. Recently, the publicist who leaked these texts defended themselves, stating that Baldoni and the company were “desperate to divert attention from their disreputable smearing of Blake Lively.” It’s been quite a rollercoaster ride!
Several well-known figures in Hollywood have stood by Blake Lively since the lawsuit commenced, with recent developments such as the disclosure of text messages allegedly from Baldoni’s associates keeping the public interest high. Notably, Stephanie Jones, founder of Jonesworks, has become a central figure in this unfolding story due to her past relationship with Baldoni. Before their falling out, Baldoni was one of her clients, and it is said that she passed some texts to Lively’s team. As the heat intensifies around her, her legal representative has released a statement to Variety, which reads:
In an attempt to divert focus from their unsavory actions against Blake Lively, Justin Baldoni’s team is intensifying their negative tactics by targeting an individual who played no role in the distasteful smear campaign at all.
It’s clear that Jones is receiving a lot of criticism, particularly regarding the Lively/Baldoni predicament, which has been a hot topic in recent news. On the other hand, Bryan Freedman, who represents Baldoni and others involved in the case, argues that Jones had no justification to disclose private messages meant for Lively’s legal team.
Steph Jones’ representative persists with their argument, maintaining the defense of the media executive in the same declaration. The statement continues as follows:
As the one who recently outmaneuvered Steph Jones in our long-standing venture with Baldoni, Jen Abel and Melissa Nathan are attempting to pin the blame on Steph for daring to comply with a court-ordered subpoena. However, they’re mistaken if they believe this tactic will intimidate her – not even threats of being legally annihilated can silence her. In fact, as Melissa Nathan herself put it, ‘it just highlights the deep-seated desire some people have to undermine women.’
Here it is. The circumstances involving “It Ends With Us” are still unfolding, and it seems likely that people will continue to follow along. Time will tell which party comes out on top in court, and how this outcome might influence the professional lives of all those involved.
Despite all the commotion surrounding it, some fans have hoped for a sequel to the film “It Ends With Us”. In fact, the movie has been successful at the box office and remains popular on Netflix since its streaming release. However, a follow-up film seems rather unlikely right now, although author Colleen Hoover appears supportive of the idea as expressed by the actor playing the lead role.
As a film enthusiast, I’m thrilled to share that the moving tale, “It Ends with Us,” is currently streaming on Netflix! If you’re as excited as I am, mark your calendars for the 2025 movie release dates to ensure you don’t miss a beat when the New Year rolls around and we can finally catch it on the big screen.
