Justin Baldoni has launched a long-promised website to publicly counter Blake Lively’s allegations of sexual harassment and smear tactics, but the rollout has been underwhelming. Despite his claims of full transparency, the site primarily features his first amended complaint from his $400 million lawsuit against Lively and Ryan Reynolds, along with a text message timeline. While Baldoni’s team frames the timeline as crucial evidence, critics note that it lacks substantive new revelations.

One notable text exchange highlighted on the site is between Baldoni and Reynolds before filming It Ends With Us, in which Reynolds expresses excitement about Lively collaborating with Baldoni, calling him “dynamic” and saying he “adores” him. However, these texts predate any conflict, making them of questionable relevance to Baldoni’s claims that Lively later tried to destroy his career.

The website also includes metadata-related accusations against The New York Times, suggesting the newspaper had early access to Lively’s state civil rights complaint before publication. Baldoni’s team argues that this proves a coordinated smear campaign, but The Times has already denied these claims, explaining that the disputed date in their online source code was simply generated by Google’s software.

Baldoni’s lawsuit also takes an unexpected turn by reviving the bizarre claim that Marvel’s Deadpool & Wolverine mocked him with a character named “Nicepool.” His legal team initially demanded that Disney preserve all documents related to any harassment complaints against Reynolds—a move that fueled speculation but ultimately seems baseless, as no such complaints have surfaced.

Meanwhile, Lively and Reynolds’ legal team is pushing for two key actions at the upcoming February 3 hearing:

1. Preventing Baldoni’s attorney, Bryan Freedman, from making more inflammatory public statements about the case.
2. Blocking Freedman from deposing Lively in the lawsuit.

Baldoni’s side argues that new evidence proves Lively orchestrated a campaign of false accusations to tarnish his reputation, while her team maintains that Baldoni’s lawsuit is a retaliation attempt meant to silence her.

With tensions escalating, Monday’s hearing before Judge Lewis J. Liman will likely focus on whether Freedman’s media appearances have crossed ethical lines and whether Baldoni’s $400 million lawsuit has enough merit to proceed. While a full dismissal is unlikely at this stage, Lively’s team is expected to continue challenging the claims in court.
