I love how you pearl clutchers are like he sexually harassed a woman?!?! He won’t survive in Hollywood! If there is one industry that will not stand for treating women bad it’s Hollywood. I’m sure no white male executives who still run Hollywood ever want to work with this studio again!

Give me a freaking break. Wayfarer has $1 billion backer of course they’re going to continue to pump out movies.

Blake will be the one who suffers from this. Apparently isabel too as she was just starting out and she has gained no more Instagram followers, and has no more movies in the works which is kind of sad that she got caught up in this. Blake won’t do much acting again and somehow we will survive without her movies, and Ryan will probably do fine. I doubt it was worth bringing this lawsuit, but whatever it’s their money.

The deposition excerpts have been released and this is not the case at all. Do you even read the documents? For that matter, follow the arguments being made on this thread?

«In court documents, obtained by TMZ, text messages sent by one of the film's stars, Jenny Slate, show she didn't want to do anything with Justin or his "truly unprofessional" business partner Jamey Heath back in 2023 -- the year the film began production.

Slate wrote, "This has really been a disturbing shoot, and I'm one of many who feel this way, and Blake and I have both complained directly to Ange [production executive Andrea Giannetti] at Sony (and they agree w us btw). Justin is truly a false ally and I'm unwilling to do anything that promotes the image that he's crafting as a 'male feminist' ... like ... honestly I have no words to describe what a fraud he is."

She continued ... "I honestly have never ever encountered anything like this dude. He's the biggest clown and the most intense narcissist."

Later in a deposition, Slate is quoted as saying, "Justin and Jamey freak me out." According to the deposition transcript, Slate was concerned about how much "crap" Lively had to take from Justin and Jamey, and accused the two men of telling "weird lies."

Additionally, an email sent from "It Ends With Us" author Colleen Hoover to Sony on July 14, 2024, shows that she was reluctant to show up at the premiere.

She wrote, "Am I going to be comfortable if Justin is there? No, things are beyond uncomfortable at this point."

Actress Isabela Ferrer was asked in a deposition about filming an intimate scene involving two teenagers, after which she says Baldoni commented on it being "hot" ... Ferrer said "It didn't feel appropriate in a work environment," and didn't feel like a note about her acting, saying it was out of place and "personal."


Are there any actresses backing up Boldoni on this production? Sure doesn't sound like it.

Aren't these the three core actresses in the cast, and all refused to do promotion with him?

Yea because their Queen Bee leader decreed it be so. Even Sony blamed Blake for this. Blake was working on this from preproduction on. And boy does Slate grovel at her feet. Her cross will really be something if she testifies at all.

Slate is on the record, during production and promotion, independent of Blake. He told a 20-something her sex scene was "hot"? Gross, gross, gross.

Ferrer also had an issue with Baldoni taking the young Atlas actor aside and telling him he hopes he gets to know Isabel better and winking. She felt it was a sexual comment. I don't know that it's so bad on its own but then you combine that with him asking if they've been practicing the sex scene because it was hot, and she was quite upset by that.

She was also upset about Baldoni wanting her to look cookie dough off a spoon suggestively. That one I think sounds overblown, but there really must be something about Baldoni that really is a turn off IRL because comments like this and the "sexy" comment get such reactions when they are not THAT bad on paper, so it's interesting how he will play to a jury. The consensus against him seems to be near unanimous.

Keep up, the cookie dough lick came directly from the book.

Yes, but my understanding is that it wasn’t in the script. So adding it, in light of all the other comments/how Justin seems to present things, could easily make a younger actress uncomfortable.

I think it’s unreasonable to complain about something taken directly from the book. Perhaps she should have read it, it’s basically a YA book, not difficult.

I agree Hollywood doesn't really care about bad behavior but they need a distributor and this has been a massive headache for SONY. And neither Justin or Jamey are good at their jobs. Some actors aren't going to want to work with them. I think Wayfarer will be able to make movies but nothing big.

Huh? Insurers are always trying to wriggle out of these things. Nothing to do with the validity of Blake’s claims.

To be fair they really don’t go for big movies. It’s mainly independent films.

The post was about their viability as a studio, not thr validity of her claims. And this isn’t just them trying to wriggle out, they are arguing WF had legal notice of her claims and did not disclose.

And another thing that will be difficult for WF is how they went against the Sony marketing plan with the DV stuff and possibly (allegedly) launched a campaign against the lead actress for their own benefit. Maybe those are typical in Hollywood and its just that no one is dumb enough to openly text about it.

Which I said was overblown. But Ferrer read the book 3 times, and was still offended by that, so it must be Baldoni, not the content. He must have some kind of anti-charisma which turns women off.

In the book the cookie dough lick was off of a spoon. Baldoni wanted Isabelle to instead suck it off of her costars finger - to put his finger in her mouth and suck the cookie dough off his finger. This was not in the script. Neither was the undressing or the simulated penetration that he wanted. Young Lily was supposed to be aged 15/16 and a virgin in the book - these scenes he wanted went far beyond the book and the script.

These scenes that Sony wanted. Fixed for you.

The Isabel stuff seems less relevant to me, especially after that glowing text she sent about how safe and comfortable she felt, the video of her trying to hug him after the scene and him stepping back and high-fiving her instead because he clearly was trying to cross every T and dot that every i at that point. And the fact that Blake did promise her something in the PGA letter. So I’m not saying I don’t believe her but these allegations don’t seem particularly salacious - We know Isabella and Alex were cast because they are attractive and appealing, and you wanted the audience to feel a certain way. They had a sexy scene for a reason, come on. The director was clearly trying to illicit that so commenting that he got what he wanted does not seem strange or out of place.

There could be something with the Jenny stuff but it’s just also vague. She clearly hated the guy, but why. I love how she’s like “I have no words”, but Jenny could maybe you put some words together and tell us why they were so creepy? are you going on vibes? honestly I really like Jenny but it’s all these months out and we’re just getting these really really vague statements - like what did they do?

You get really vague statements when there is nothing specific to talk about, except apparently amidst her telling sexually explicit jokes, she found time to be upset about his use of the word sexy.

If a co-worked called me sexy, especially if he was in a position of authority over me (producer/director) I'd be in our HR office in 2 minutes flat. That is unacceptable and you know it.

But what if you are in a movie that was supposed to be sexy to literally sell tickets? And Sony execs were telling you you needed to bring the heat? And it needed to be hotter? And People‘s wardrobe needed to be sexier? Would it bother you so much then? Context matters here.

There was pressure on production to and Blake and others were game. Blake sent a text to Justin saying she was changing part of her wardrobe because she wanted it to be sexier so it was common place on the set to talk like that.

Context matters. There is a huge difference between saying a particular scene is supposed to come across as sexy to the audience and saying someone on set is sexy (outside of describing a scene or character).

There is a difference, and Blake is on record as not seeing the difference. Remember her initial allegations Baldoni told her she smelled good only to see the dancing video where he clearly said "it smells good" referring to the tanning lotion?

The IC said a lot of the stuff he was asking for in the scene was not typical positions and stuff for a girl losing her virginity. He's weird and pornsick.

Ferrer also had an issue with Baldoni taking the young Atlas actor aside and telling him he hopes he gets to know Isabel better and winking. She felt it was a sexual comment. I don't know that it's so bad on its own but then you combine that with him asking if they've been practicing the sex scene because it was hot, and she was quite upset by that.

She was also upset about Baldoni wanting her to look cookie dough off a spoon suggestively. That one I think sounds overblown, but there really must be something about Baldoni that really is a turn off IRL because comments like this and the "sexy" comment get such reactions when they are not THAT bad on paper, so it's interesting how he will play to a jury. The consensus against him seems to be near unanimous.

Keep up, the cookie dough lick came directly from the book.

Which I said was overblown. But Ferrer read the book 3 times, and was still offended by that, so it must be Baldoni, not the content. He must have some kind of anti-charisma which turns women off.

In the book the cookie dough lick was off of a spoon. Baldoni wanted Isabelle to instead suck it off of her costars finger - to put his finger in her mouth and suck the cookie dough off his finger. This was not in the script. Neither was the undressing or the simulated penetration that he wanted. Young Lily was supposed to be aged 15/16 and a virgin in the book - these scenes he wanted went far beyond the book and the script.

These scenes that Sony wanted. Fixed for you.

Where is the evidence that Sony requested those scenes be changed? From the depoistions, it was his based on his direction. Then he made comments about how hot the scenes were. A guy with a porn addiction wants a virgin teen character to be overly graphically sexualized outside of the script and finds it hot in real life. I can see why the actor was uncomfortable. I highly doubt Sony was involved in that level of script direction but if you have evidence of them being on set and changing the script and directing that scene - feel free to share it.

I love how you pearl clutchers are like he sexually harassed a woman?!?! He won’t survive in Hollywood! If there is one industry that will not stand for treating women bad it’s Hollywood. I’m sure no white male executives who still run Hollywood ever want to work with this studio again!

Give me a freaking break. Wayfarer has $1 billion backer of course they’re going to continue to pump out movies.

Blake will be the one who suffers from this. Apparently isabel too as she was just starting out and she has gained no more Instagram followers, and has no more movies in the works which is kind of sad that she got caught up in this. Blake won’t do much acting again and somehow we will survive without her movies, and Ryan will probably do fine. I doubt it was worth bringing this lawsuit, but whatever it’s their money.

I agree Hollywood doesn't really care about bad behavior but they need a distributor and this has been a massive headache for SONY. And neither Justin or Jamey are good at their jobs. Some actors aren't going to want to work with them. I think Wayfarer will be able to make movies but nothing big.

Dont forget lawsuits with 4 different insurance companies. But it's all Blake's fault!

Huh? Insurers are always trying to wriggle out of these things. Nothing to do with the validity of Blake’s claims.

The post was about their viability as a studio, not thr validity of her claims. And this isn’t just them trying to wriggle out, they are arguing WF had legal notice of her claims and did not disclose.

And another thing that will be difficult for WF is how they went against the Sony marketing plan with the DV stuff and possibly (allegedly) launched a campaign against the lead actress for their own benefit. Maybe those are typical in Hollywood and its just that no one is dumb enough to openly text about it.

The same Sony that acknowledged the backlash against Blake was against her own doing? The same Sony whose producers Ryan called ineffectual and senile? It's the personal comments that are going to piss them off the most.
