Baldoni's Legal Battle with Lively and Reynolds Intensifies

Joe Rogan has publicly sided with Justin Baldoni in the escalating legal conflict with Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds over the film 'It Ends With Us.' Lively accused Baldoni of sexual harassment and orchestrating a smear campaign, which Baldoni has denied, countersuing Lively and Reynolds for $400 million for defamation and other charges. Rogan criticized Lively and Reynolds for allegedly attempting to hijack the movie project and weaponizing the #MeToo movement against Baldoni, while praising Baldoni for presenting evidence, including text messages, to support his defense. The legal battle has taken a toll on Baldoni's well-being, leading him to undergo a personal transformation. Lively and Reynolds have sought to dismiss Baldoni's lawsuits, but the cases are ongoing, with a trial expected in 2026. Baldoni has also filed a $250 million libel lawsuit against The New York Times over its reporting on these allegations.
