Blake Lively accused her co-star Justin Baldoni of sexual harassment and creating a hostile work environment on the set of “It Ends With Us,” and then trying to ruin her reputation after she expressed her concerns, according to a complaint she filed. During one alleged incident, Baldoni improvised numerous kisses during a scene, the complaint says. Another incident alleges that Baldoni did not act in character while they filmed a slow dance scene that did not require sound. Baldoni was caressing Ms. Lively with his mouth in a way that had nothing to do with their roles. According to the complaint, Baldoni hired a crisis communications team to launch a “retaliatory social manipulation campaign” against Lively during the film’s promotion to destroy her reputation.

When asked about whether he'd be interested in directing a sequel, Baldoni told "Entertainment Tonight," “I think that there are better people for that one."

“Colleen Hoover books always leave me speechless and in tears,” one TikTok reader said. However, Hoover’s work, she says, blurs that line with the addition of painful – and decidedly non-aspirational – narrative arcs. She pointed out what she saw as a pattern in Hoover’s books of women who endure disturbing behavior from their partners. Probably not.”Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni are set to star in the movie adaptation of Colleen Hoover's book "It Ends With Us." Hoover’s books are cloaked in bright, fashionable colors, and her author website offers boutique-style merchandise with flowers and calligraphy and inside jokes from her books.
