Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni reach settlement in

Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni have reached a settlement in the lawsuit brought by the actress over allegations of sexual harassment on the set of the movie “It Ends With Us.”

“It is our sincere hope that this brings closure and allows all involved to move forward constructively and in peace, including a respectful environment online,” attorneys for Baldoni, who directed and co-starred in the film, wrote in a statement. 

A federal judge in New York had previously tossed out Lively’s sexual harassment claims, originally brought in 2024, but left intact two retaliation claims and said some sexual harassment allegations may be put to a jury to support those claims.

Baldoni and his production company, Wayfarer Studios, had countersued Lively and her husband, actor Ryan Reynolds, accusing them of defamation and extortion. Those claims were dismissed last June.

A trial on the remaining claims had been set to begin later this month.
