'Aggressive' words Ryan Reynolds allegedly said to Justin Baldoni before Blake Lively 'refused to film scene'

Ryan Reynolds allegedly swore and used aggressive language in an exchange with Justin Baldoni over one particular scene Blake Lively 'refused to film'.

If you don't know by now, there's a messy legal spat going on between Lively and Baldoni, which sparked on the movie set of It Ends With Us.

Just days before Christmas, the Gossip Girl alum dropped a legal complaint against Baldoni - her co-star and director of the film - accusing him of creating a toxic set environment, sexual harassment and instigating a 'social manipulation' campaign to 'destroy' her reputation.

The 37-year-old followed this up with a formal litigation on New Year's Eve against Baldoni and his production company, Wayfarer Studios.

Included in her complaint were allegations that Baldoni added 'gratuitous sexual content' and nude scenes while making 'comments' about her weight.

Lively's legal team said her decision to speak out 'has resulted in further retaliation and attacks'.

Meanwhile, Baldoni's attorney, Bryan Freedman, slammed the claims as 'categorically false' and filed a $400 million countersue yesterday (January 16) against Lively, her husband Ryan Reynolds, her publicist and PR team.

In one part of the new lawsuit, the 40-year-old's claims allege Taylor Swift - the couple's close friend - and Reynolds pressured him to accept Lively's tweaks to certain scenes in the script.

The lawsuit refers to Swift and Reynolds as 'dragons' and being 'two of the most influential and wealthy celebrities in the world, who were not afraid to make things very difficult for him', reports PEOPLE Magazine.

Lively's legal team snapped back in a statement to the Daily Mail: "This latest lawsuit from Justin Baldoni, Wayfarer Studios, and its associates is another chapter in the abuser playbook.

"This is an age-old story: A woman speaks up with concrete evidence of sexual harassment and retaliation and the abuser attempts to turn the tables on the victim. This is what experts call DARVO. Deny. Attack. Reverse Victim Offender."

Now, transcripts from Baldoni's lawsuit have come to light which further allege that Reynolds swore at him for 'fat-shaming his wife' over a particular scene where Baldoni was meant to lift her.

The documents claim Baldoni had asked his personal trainer 'privately' what Lively weighed so he could 'train his back muscles in preparation for a lift scene', in a bid to prevent injury.

In the alleged altercation, Reynolds reportedly swore at him: "How dare you f**king ask about my wife's weight? What's wrong with you?"

Baldoni's legal team claim the 'confrontation' was 'aggressive' and that Lively 'refused to perform' the scene in the end.

This comes after Baldoni's legal team filed another lawsuit against The New York Times for libel and false light invasion of privacy after the outlet published Lively's account.

Baldoni is now counter suing on claims of civil extortion, defamation, false light invasion of privacy, breach of implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, as well as prospective economic advantage, negligent interference with prospective economic advantage and intentional interference with contractual relations, intentional interference with prospective economic advantage.

Bryan Freedman, Baldoni's lawyer, previously told UNILAD: "This lawsuit is a legal action based on an overwhelming amount of untampered evidence detailing Blake Lively and her team’s duplicitous attempt to destroy Justin Baldoni, his team and their respective companies by disseminating grossly edited, unsubstantiated, new and doctored information to the media."

He continued: "Let’s not forget, Ms. Lively and her team attempted to bulldoze reputations and livelihoods for heinously selfish reasons through their own dangerous manipulation of the media before even taking any actual legal action. We know the truth, and now the public does too. Justin and his team have nothing to hide, documents do not lie."

UNILAD has reached out to representatives for Wayfarer Studios, Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds and Taylor Swift for comment.
