The update comes hours after news broke that Lively was taking legal action against her It Ends With Us co-star and director.
In the filing, the Simple Favor actress — who is also repped by WME, along with her husband, Ryan Reynolds — not only accused Baldoni and his coworkers at Wayfarer Studios of sexual harassment but also of an alleged coordinated effort to destroy her reputation. The Jane the Virgin star’s lawyer, Bryan Freedman, fired back at the allegations, calling them “shameful,” “serious and categorically false.”
In a statement to The New York Times, Lively said, “I hope that my legal action helps pull back the curtain on these sinister retaliatory tactics to harm people who speak up about misconduct and helps protect others who may be targeted.”
