布蕾克·莱弗利与贾斯汀·巴尔多尼已就这位女演员提起的诉讼达成和解，该诉讼指控二人在电影《爱，到此为止》片场发生性骚扰事件。
双方代理律师在联合声明中表示：“我们真诚希望这一结果能带来了结，让所有相关方都能以建设性、平和的方式继续前行，包括在网络上营造尊重的环境。”
莱弗利曾指控巴尔多尼与公关人员合谋，在她私下指控巴尔多尼在片场对其进行性骚扰后，抢先破坏她的声誉。巴尔多尼否认曾骚扰她或策划抹黑活动，并称有关他行为的指控是莱弗利编造的，目的是夺取这部电影的创作控制权。
纽约一名联邦法官此前驳回了莱弗利于2024年最初提出的性骚扰指控，但保留了两项报复指控，并表示部分性骚扰指控可提交陪审团，以佐证这些报复主张。刘易斯·J·利曼法官裁定，莱弗利无法依据联邦法律追究性骚扰指控，因为她在该片拍摄期间属于独立承包商，而非雇员。
巴尔多宁及其制片公司“旅人工作室”曾反诉莱弗利及其丈夫、演员瑞安·雷诺兹，指控他们诽谤和敲诈。这些反诉于去年6月被驳回。
针对剩余指控的庭审原定于本月晚些时候开始。
《爱，到此为止》改编自科琳·胡佛2016年的畅销小说，于2024年8月上映，票房超出预期。
莱弗利在诉讼中称，拍摄期间巴尔多尼发表了关于她外貌的不当言论，在拍摄爱情戏时侵犯了她的身体边界，并在她饰演角色分娩的场景中，违背她的意愿坚持要求使用裸露镜头。
巴尔多尼否认有任何超出电影正常创作流程的行为。
法官在驳回性骚扰指控的裁决中承认此事的复杂性，指出创意艺术家“必须在商定的剧本框架内拥有一定的试错空间，不必担心因性骚扰而承担法律责任”。
原定庭审将聚焦莱弗利的主张：巴尔多尼和工作室对她的性骚扰投诉进行报复，雇佣公关人员将公众舆论转向反对她。她的律师称，这场公关活动包括雇佣“数字水军”在社交媒体平台发布关于莱弗利的虚假负面内容，并向不知情的记者提供“编造的内容”。
诉讼称，此举目的是“通过打击莱弗利的形象、损害她的事业，给她的家人造成严重情感伤害，以此报复莱弗利女士”。
巴尔多尼的律师则声称，是莱弗利在有策略地操纵巴尔多尼的公众形象，部分手段是借助她名人朋友的帮助。
莱弗利曾出演2005年电影《牛仔裤的夏天》，以及2007年至2012年的电视剧《绯闻女孩》，随后还主演了《城中大盗》《浅滩》等影片。
巴尔多尼曾出演电视喜剧《处女情缘》，执导了2019年电影《五尺天涯》，并撰写了《够爷们》一书，挑战传统的男子气概观念。
Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni reach settlement in “It Ends With Us” lawsuit

Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni have reached a settlement in the lawsuit brought by the actress over allegations of sexual harassment on the set of the movie “It Ends With Us.”
“It is our sincere hope that this brings closure and allows all involved to move forward constructively and in peace, including a respectful environment online,” attorneys for the involved parties said in a joint statement.
Lively had claimed that Baldoni conspired with publicists to preemptively destroy her reputation after she privately accused him of sexually harassing her on the movie set. Baldoni had denied harassing her or orchestrating a smear campaign. He’d claimed the complaints about his behavior were made up by Lively as part of an effort to seize creative control of the movie.
A federal judge in New York had previously tossed out Lively’s sexual harassment claims, originally brought in 2024, but left intact two retaliation claims and said some sexual harassment allegations may be put to a jury to support those claims. Judge Lewis J. Liman ruled that Lively couldn’t pursue the harassment claims under federal law because she was an independent contractor rather than an employee when she worked on the movie.
Baldoni and his production company, Wayfarer Studios, had countersued Lively and her husband, actor Ryan Reynolds, accusing them of defamation and extortion. Those claims were dismissed last June.
A trial on the remaining claims had been set to begin later this month.
“It Ends With Us,” an adaptation of Colleen Hoover’s bestselling 2016 novel, was released in August 2024, exceeding box office expectations.
In her lawsuit, Lively said that during filming, Baldoni made inappropriate comments about her appearance, violated physical boundaries while filming a love scene and pushed for nudity — against Lively’s wishes — during a scene in which her character was giving birth.
Baldoni denied doing anything outside the realm of the normal creative process of making a movie.
The judge, in the decision tossing out the sexual harassment claims, acknowledged the complexity of the matter, noting that creative artists “must have some amount of space to experiment within the bounds of an agreed script without fear of being held liable for sexual harassment.”
The trial was to focus on Lively’s claim that Baldoni and the studio retaliated against her sexual harassment complaints by hiring publicists to turn the public against her. Her lawyers said that campaign included hiring a “digital army” to post bogus negative content about Lively on social media platforms, and feeding “manufactured content to unwitting reporters.”
The lawsuit said the purpose was to “retaliate against Ms. Lively by battering her image, harming her businesses, and causing her family severe emotional harm.”
Baldoni’s lawyers have claimed it was Lively who was strategically manipulating Baldoni’s public image, partly by leveraging help from her famous friends.
Lively appeared in the 2005 film “The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants” and the TV series “Gossip Girl” from 2007 to 2012 before starring in films including “The Town” and “The Shallows.”
Baldoni starred in the TV comedy “Jane the Virgin,” directed the 2019 film “Five Feet Apart” and wrote “Man Enough,” a book challenging traditional notions of masculinity.
