Justin Baldoni Accuses Blake Lively, New York Times of ‘Colluding’ in Amended $400 Million Lawsuit

Justin Baldoni has amended his lawsuit against Blake Lively and The New York Times, accusing them of "colluding" for months to smear him.

The amended lawsuit also raises new allegations about Lively’s husband Reynolds and his portrayal of Nicepool in Deadpool & Wolverine, accusing the actor of “mocking and bullying” him via the character. “Reynolds portrayed Nicepool as a vicious caricature of a ‘woke’ feminist before concluding the character’s arc with his violent shooting death at the hands of ‘Ladypool,’ a character voiced by Blake Lively,” the suit alleges, adding that Nicepool was “intended to be a transparent and mocking portrayal of Reynolds’ warped perception of Baldoni.” The trial over Blake Lively’s lawsuit against Baldoni and his production company, Wayfarer Studios, has been scheduled to commence on March 9.
