Blake Lively asked Ben Affleck to help Justin Baldoni via email
Court documents received us weekly Tuesday, January 20, includes an alleged email between Blake and Ben Affleck in May 2024. She asked them to “watch the film and give me any ideas or notes” regarding her account of the film. Blake reportedly wrote to Ben, “I just came out (almost) the other side of the most disturbing experience I’ve ever had in a movie. Making a doc of this movie would be more interesting than the movie itself. It’s like having a baby with Wild Wild Country, Fire Festival and Going Clear combined with The Room… although The Room works too.”
Blake did not name Justin and said, “Anyway, I rewrote and reorganized the entire script, I even had to direct the movie through the anarchist clown ‘director’/actor/producer/financier/Studio head at the center. Yep, he’s all the same person.”
Blake asks Ben for advice and suggests he send her a voice text after watching the movie cut he sent her. She would then “Duke It Out” with Justin on the final cut of the film. In 2024, it was reported that the two stars edited their favorite version of It End’s With Us.
In the alleged email, Blake said she would like Ben’s children or ex Jennifer Lopez to have a role in the film. She also noted that her husband Ryan Reynolds had asked Ben’s friend Matt Damon to give his opinion on the film. The messages between Blake, Ryan, Matt and his wife, Luciana Barroso, were filed in Tuesday’s case. Matt responded by offering his assistance.
Blake and Justin will meet in court for a civil trial starting this May.
