Blake vs. Baldoni?! A Crew Member Just Entered the Chat 🍿

Hollywood drama is usually saved for the screen — but It Ends With Us is happening in the group chats.
The adaptation of Colleen Hoover’s best-selling book has been plagued with delays, reshoots, and legal battles, and now it’s gotten messier. A crew member from the production just came forward backing up director Justin Baldoni’s claims that Blake Lively tried to hijack creative control. You read that right: the star allegedly tried to push the director out of the process.
According to the source, Lively "took advantage of [Baldoni’s] kindness" and attempted to edge him out during post-production — including final editing decisions and the film’s premiere. Whew.
Let’s rewind: back in March, Baldoni filed a lawsuit accusing Lively of defamation and breaching confidentiality. He claimed she created chaos behind the scenes and tried to shut him out of his own movie. Blake clapped back hard, filing her own lawsuit and alleging that Baldoni made the set a toxic environment and was on a smear campaign against her.
Now, this unnamed crew member says Blake’s side of the story might not be the full picture.
🎬 Wait—what is going on with this movie?
If you’re confused, same. What was supposed to be a buzzy fan-fave adaptation has turned into a high-profile showdown that feels straight out of a Reel Housewives reunion. Only with more legal teams.
The movie has already had a bumpy road. Fans dragged the costumes (remember the grandma-core floral fits?) and questioned the casting choices from the jump. Filming stopped during the strike, then resumed in 2024 — but clearly, the tension behind the scenes didn’t stay there.
With this new testimony from a crew member — who worked closely on set and claimed to witness Blake’s alleged behavior firsthand — the tide could shift again. And if you're wondering why people are paying this much attention, it’s because this isn’t just celeb drama. It’s a peek behind the Hollywood curtain, and fans are invested.

📣 The fandom is split
Blake Lively has major support — SAG-AFTRA and author Colleen Hoover herself have backed her up publicly. That’s not nothing. But Justin Baldoni, while quieter on social, has been steady in his claims and now has a crew member in his corner.
The wildest part? This may not be the last twist. Insiders say more people from the production might speak out soon. If that happens, the PR fallout could be major — especially since both Lively and Baldoni are doubling down legally.
