Paul Feig Speaks Up in Support of Blake Lively: ‘Professional, Creative, Collaborative’

Director Paul Feig released a statement in support of Blake Lively following her sexual harassment complaint against Justin Baldoni.

Paul Feig has spoken out in support of Blake Lively following her legal complaint against Justin Baldoni, her co-star and director of It Ends With Us. Feig’s support comes after Lively’s “friends and sisters” America Ferrera, Amber Tamblyn, and Alexis Bledel released a statement via Instagram, noting that they “stand with her in solidarity.” “Throughout the filming of It Ends With Us, we saw her summon the courage to ask for a safe workplace for herself and colleagues on set, and we are appalled to read the evidence of a premeditated and vindictive effort that ensued to discredit her voice,” the trio wrote. In interviews, Lively — who also produced the film — gushed about the cast and crew, but never mentioned Baldoni, the director who she also made out with onscreen.
