With the first actual hearing in the multi-million dollar lawsuits between It Ends With Us co-stars Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni coming up early next week, the Gossip Girl alum and spouse Ryan Reynolds have finally said the quiet part out loud.

Taylor Swift and Blake Lively's friendship remains unscathed amid the Justin Baldoni legal drama surrounding 'It Ends with Us,' sources confirmed to PEOPLE.

While it started with Blake Lively's behavior with journalists, now she and director/actor Justin Baldoni are involved in a number of lawsuits surrounding the project (which is streaming with a Netflix subscription).

The film is just one of several projects the filmmaker could lose amid his growing fight with his ‘It Ends With Us’ co-star.

Actor Bart Johnson said he is sorry for a December social media post that appeared to criticize the "It Ends With Us" director and his "man bun."

"It Ends With Us" set complaints, cast factions, a smear campaign and now a lawsuit – here's how it all went down

Justin Baldoni is heard apologizing to his co-star Blake Lively in an audio message apparently sent to Lively amid production of their film “It Ends with Us,” long before the two stars launched into a legal battle that continues to play out in the public eye.

A federal judge has set a March 2026 trial date for actors Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni to resolve their claims stemming from their work on the movie “It Ends With Us.”

A New York court has also set a March 2026 trial date and intends to consolidate the crisscrossing lawsuits between Lively and her director and co-star, who is suing both Lively and husband Ryan Reynolds.

Justin Baldoni appears to have sent Blake Lively a lengthy voice note apology during the making of “It Ends with Us” in which he tells his costar that he “fucked up” in his handling of rewrites she proposed for one of the film’s pivotal scenes.
