Blake Lively vs. The Director: The ‘It Ends With Us’ Set Drama Is Giving Full Reality Show Energy

Buy Me A Coffee

Welcome to the It Ends With Us cinematic circus, where the drama is juicier than a Real Housewives reunion and the plot twists are more chaotic than a toddler with glitter and scissors. Buckle up, babes, because this Hollywood mess has layersโ€”like an onion, but with better lighting and way more legal fees.

So what happened, exactly?
Well, in one corner, weโ€™ve got Queen of Gossip Girl and Hair Goalsโ„ข, Blake Lively. In the other, we have actor/director Justin Baldoni, aka Mr. Hallmark Hottie turned behind-the-scenes boss man. According to Blake, Justin wasn’t just calling โ€œaction!โ€โ€”he was allegedly acting all sorts of wrong. She dropped a lawsuit that accused him of sexual harassment and orchestrating a smear campaign against her, which, wow, is not exactly a great vibe for a set thatโ€™s supposed to be about ~healing and heartbreak~.

But waitโ€”plot twist! Justin fired back like a Marvel villain in a boardroom, slapping lawsuits on The New York Times (because apparently journalists are the final boss in this saga), and on Blake and her husband Ryan Reynolds, who was probably just trying to enjoy a maple syrup latte in peace.

Enter: The Surprising Voice of Reason.
Storyboard artist Talia Spencer, who worked on the film and apparently survived the on-set Hunger Games, popped into the chat via 60 Minutes Australia. Because when your set turns into an HBO miniseries, you might as well bring in international news, right?

Talia described Justin as โ€œone of the few directors Iโ€™ve worked for that was kind and respectful.โ€ Cue the sound of shocked gasps and a dramatic slow zoom-in.

She said she signed on because Justin seemed genuinely interested in the vision and not just trying to add โ€œDirected by Meโ€ to his Tinder bio. But when it came to the whole Blake-Justin clash? Talia said what we were all thinking:

โ€œI feel like maybe Blake smelled his kindness, mistook it for weakness, and tried to take power.โ€

Girl. Thatโ€™s not just a commentโ€”thatโ€™s a Real Housewives tagline. “I donโ€™t start drama, I storyboard it.”

When asked if Blake tried to stage a Hollywood-style coup dโ€™รฉtat and take over the film like it was a Starbucks order gone wrong, Talia was like:

โ€œYeah, probably. I think there was a massive compromise in terms of Justinโ€™s original vision.โ€

Translation: Justinโ€™s movie was supposed to be a soft, emotional hug, and it turned into an emotionally-charged rollercoaster run by Blake with glitter, tears, and fire.

Meanwhile, Justinโ€™s legal team has been busy dropping โ€œreceiptsโ€ like itโ€™s tax seasonโ€”text messages, notes, and what we assume are at least three bullet-pointed PowerPoints about how this film went from It Ends With Us to It Ends With Court Appearances.

And Blakeโ€™s camp? Theyโ€™ve got their own pile of allegations, including notes allegedly sent to the screenwriter and publicist, which we can only assume were full of passive-aggressive emojis and bolded caps lock phrases like โ€œPLEASE FIX THIS.โ€

What started as a romantic drama movie adaptation turned into an actual romantic-drama-movie-situation, featuring lawsuits, power plays, emotional chaos, and a storyboard artist who unintentionally became the unsung hero of this saga.

Stay tunedโ€”because if this thing gets any wilder, Netflix might just give it its own limited series.
