The legal team of American actor of Italian origin and director of the film “It Ends with Us” Justin Baldoni and his lawyer Brian Friedman released a 10-minute video from the filming of the film starring him and Blake Lively. This was done to refute Lively's accusations of sexual harassment against her partner, and that Baldoni behaved inappropriately while filming a slow dance scene in a bar for the film, Forbes writes.. Filming took place at Wayfarer Studio.

Justin's defense emphasizes that the footage clearly shows that both actors clearly behaved "

The video includes three takes of the same scene and is the complete recording filmed for the scene, during which Lively alleged in the lawsuit that Baldoni " Footage shows a similar interaction where Baldoni nuzzled Lively's neck and she said, "

In another scene, Baldoni leans in to kiss Lively and she pulls away, saying, " I think it will be more romantic if we dance and talk"

In turn, Lively's team says the footage fully supports her story, and "

" Every frame of the published recording confirms to the last letter what Ms. Lively described in paragraph 48 of her complaint. The video shows Mr. Baldoni repeatedly leaning toward Ms. Lively, trying to kiss her, kissing her forehead, rubbing his face and mouth on her neck, flicking her lip with his thumb, caressing her, telling her how good she smells and talking to. "

The actress filed the lawsuit in early January in federal court for the Southern District of New York against Baldoni, Wayfarer CEO Jamie Heath, publicist Jennifer Abel and crisis communications consultant Melissa Nathan.. Baldoni both directed and starred in the film based on the best-selling novel by Colleen Hoover.

She accuses Justin of sexual harassment, and he and his accomplices of organizing a smear campaign..

" Instead, he spoke to Ms. Lively not as himself.. At one point, he leaned forward and slowly brushed his lips from her ear and down her neck, saying, “She smells so good.”. None of this was even remotely done in character or based on any dialogue in the script, and nothing needed to be said because, again, there was no sound - Mr. Baldoni was caressing Mrs. Lively with his mouth in a way that had no meaning. When Ms. Lively later objected to this behavior, Mr. Baldoni's response was, "

In turn, Baldoni filed a lawsuit against Blake and her husband Ryan Reynolds, demanding at least $400 in damages for waging their own alleged smear campaign..
