Blake Lively allegedly sent a bizarre Games of Thrones text to Justin Baldoni as he sues her company for $400,000,000.

Baldoni is suing Lively, her husband, Ryan Reynolds, their publicist, PR firm, and friend, Taylor Swift, for $400 million on a raft of claims, sparked by the Gossip Girl star filing her own federal lawsuit accusing him of sexual harassment and ‘trying to destroy her reputation’.

The fall out all took place while Baldoni and Lively co-starred in the romantic drama, It Ends With Us, adapted from Colleen Hoover’s bestselling 2016 novel, which Baldoni also directed.

Baldoni’s team branded Lively’s claims as ‘categorically false’ and is now counter suing on claims of civil extortion, defamation, false light invasion of privacy, breach of implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, as well as prospective economic advantage, negligent interference with prospective economic advantage and intentional interference with contractual relations, intentional interference with prospective economic advantage.

Now, Baldoni claims Lively embodied a Game of Thrones character in alleged text messages while the pair were filming the romantic drama

The director’s 179-page lawsuit, filed on January 16, claims that he was facing Lively’s ‘dragons’, two of of the most influential and wealthy celebrities in the world, who were not afraid to make things very difficult for him’, reports PEOPLE.

As part of this claim, he says Swift and Reynolds pressured him to accept Lively’s tweaks to certain scenes in the script and was ‘summoned’ to a meeting with Reynolds, accompanied by Swift, where they ‘praised’ Lively’s version.

In his complaint, Baldoni claimed he later text Lively that he found her rewrites ‘fun and interesting’, but ‘would have felt that way without Ryan and Taylor’ and added an emoji.

Lively allegedly responded comparing herself to Khaleesi, while her husband and friend are her two ‘dragons’.

The alleged message read: “I happen to have a few dragons. For better or worse, but usually for better. Because my dragons also protect those I fight for. So really we all benefit from those gorgeous monsters of mine. [Smiley-face emoji] you will too, I can promise you.”

Bryan Freedman, Baldoni’s lawyer, previously told UNILAD: “This lawsuit is a legal action based on an overwhelming amount of untampered evidence detailing Blake Lively and her team’s duplicitous attempt to destroy Justin Baldoni, his team and their respective companies by disseminating grossly edited, unsubstantiated, new and doctored information to the media.”

He continued: “Let’s not forget, Ms. Lively and her team attempted to bulldoze reputations and livelihoods for heinously selfish reasons through their own dangerous manipulation of the media before even taking any actual legal action. We know the truth, and now the public does too. Justin and his team have nothing to hide, documents do not lie.”

UNILAD has reached out to representatives for Wayfarer Studios, Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds and Taylor Swift for comment.

It Ends With Us director Justin Baldoni has demanded that Disney holds on to any documents that may reference him following claims Ryan Reynolds used a character in Deadpool & Wolverine to ‘bully’ him.

Baldoni’s request comes amid an ongoing legal battle launched in response to sexual harassment claims lodged by his former co-star, Blake Lively.

Lively has accused Baldoni of exhibiting ‘disturbing behavior’ while they worked together on the 2024 drama movie, as well as allegedly attacking her public image.

Baldoni has denied the allegations, and responded by suing The New York Times for libel over its coverage of Lively’s lawsuit.

Reynolds was pulled into the lawsuit in claims made about his behavior when Baldoni visited his and Lively’s home, as well as in more recent allegations relating to the character of ‘Nicepool’ in Reynolds’ latest Deadpool movie.

In response to the alleged Nicepool link, Baldoni’s lawyers have sent a litigation hold letter to Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige and Disney CEO Bob Iger which demands they hold on to ‘any and all documents relating to the development of the Nicepool character’ in case Baldoni needs to use them in court.

The letter, which has been seen by PEOPLE, also requests access to ‘communications relating to the development, writing and filming of storylines and scenes featuring Nicepool’.

The legal team is searching for evidence ‘relating to or reflecting a deliberate attempt to mock, harass, ridicule, intimidate or bully Baldoni through the character of Nicepool’, among other subjects.

Also played by Reynolds in Deadpool & Wolverine, Nicepool is a Canadian version of the mercenary who is, as his name suggests, almost frustratingly nice.

The character is depicted as having flawless skin and a thick man bun, and he describes Ladypool, played by Lively, as ‘gorgeous’ in the movie.

In one comment, Nicepool says of Ladypool: “She just had a baby too and you can’t even tell.”

Those familiar with the allegations Lively has launched against Baldoni may recognize an apparent link between this remark and comments allegedly made by Baldoni, who Lively claims found ‘back-channel ways of criticizing her body and weight’ after she and Reynolds welcomed their first child.

Baldoni’s lawyer, Bryan Freedman, spoke about the apparent connection between Baldoni and Nicepool in an interview with one of his former clients, Megyn Kelly, on her web show earlier this month.

In the interview, Freedman claimed there was ‘no question’ that Nicepool ‘relates to Justin’.

LADbible Group has reached out to Disney for comment.

A voice message recorded by Justin Baldoni has been leaked amid the ongoing tensions between him and Blake Lively.

Baldoni and Lively starred in It Ends With Us together, and played on-screen couple Lily Bloom and Ryle Kincaid.

But ahead of the movie’s release last year, there were rumors that the two leads didn’t see eye-to-eye on set and that they’d fallen out with one another.

Fast forward to the It Ends With Us press tour, and Baldoni – who also directed the film – and Lively were seldom seen together, further sparking speculation that they weren’t on good terms.

Then, just days before Christmas, Gossip Girl alum Lively filed a bombshell lawsuit against her former co-star for sexual harassment.

She also claimed that he and his team launched a smear campaign against her.

Baldoni’s legal presentative, Bryan Freedman, has since branded her accusations as ‘completely false, outrageous, and intentionally salacious with an intent to publicly hurt and rehash a narrative in the media’.

It’s thought that Baldoni is poised to countersue Lively, which Freedman has insisted will ‘expose the truth’.

While he’s yet to file anything official against the actress, Baldoni is now suing The New York Times for $250 million, who broke the story about Lively’s suit against her It Ends With Us co-star.

The article featured claims about Baldoni, one allegation being that he had ‘repeatedly entered [Lively’s] makeup trailer uninvited while she was undressed, including when she was breastfeeding’.

Part of the Baldoni’s suit says: “The Times story relied almost entirely on Lively’s unverified and self-serving narrative, lifting it nearly verbatim while disregarding an abundance of evidence that contradicted her claims and exposed her true motives.”

The newspaper has expressed its intentions of defending itself against Baldoni’s allegations.

Now, as the actor – who shot to fame on Jane the Virgin – tries to rebuild is reputation, a voicenote that details the way he claims he was treated during the It Ends With Us premiere have been released.

Shared with The Megyn Kelly Show, Baldoni’s heard saying in the voice message: “On what could have been one of the most beautiful nights of my life career wise, I literally was sent to the basement with all my friends and family for over an hour because I wasn’t allowed to be seen, she didn’t want me anywhere near her or the rest of the cast.”

It’s unclear who the ‘she’ Baldoni is referring to.

He further claimed: “We start laughing because of the ridiculousness of this whole thing.

“I was in the basement with the people that love me the most and we were all joyful and laughing cos none of that sh*t matters, none of it.”

UNILAD have approached representatives of Baldoni and Lively for comment.

Justin Baldoni’s company is suing Blake Lively for $400,000,000 as bizarre claims about her apparent on-set behavior have been revealed.

Blakely’s husband, Ryan Reynolds, their publicist Leslie Sloane and Sloane’s PR firm, Vision PR, are also being sued by Baldoni’s team.

Baldoni is suing on on claims of civil extortion, defamation, false light invasion of privacy, breach of implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, as well as prospective economic advantage, negligent interference with prospective economic advantage and intentional interference with contractual relations, intentional interference with prospective economic advantage.

Bryan Freedman, Baldoni’s lawyer, told UNILAD: “This lawsuit is a legal action based on an overwhelming amount of untampered evidence detailing Blake Lively and her team’s duplicitous attempt to destroy Justin Baldoni, his team and their respective companies by disseminating grossly edited, unsubstantiated, new and doctored information to the media.

“It is clear based on our own all out willingness to provide all complete text messages, emails, video footage and other documentary evidence that was shared between the parties in real time, that this is a battle she will not win and will certainly regret. Blake Lively was either severely misled by her team or intentionally and knowingly misrepresented the truth.

“Ms. Lively will never again be allowed to continue to exploit actual victims of real harassment solely for her personal reputation gain at the expense of those without power.

“Let’s not forget, Ms. Lively and her team attempted to bulldoze reputations and livelihoods for heinously selfish reasons through their own dangerous manipulation of the media before even taking any actual legal action. We know the truth, and now the public does too. Justin and his team have nothing to hide, documents do not lie.”

Speculation mounted surrounding Baldoni and Lively’s alleged ‘friction’ on the set of 2024 movie It Ends With Us, while Lively also found herself being slammed online during the film’s press tour.

And last month, the Gossip Girl actor filed a federal lawsuit in New York accusing Baldoni of sexual harassment and ‘trying to destroy her reputation’ – accusations of which Baldoni’s team has branded ‘categorically false’.

Freedman has previously slammed the New York Times, saying: “It’s ironic that the New York Times, through their effort to ‘uncover’ an insidious PR effort, played directly into the hands of Lively’s own dubious PR tactics by publishing leaked personal text exchanges that lack critical context – the very same tactics she’s accusing the firm of implementing.”

While the publication defended its story as ‘meticulously and responsibly reported’.
