What is In Dispute: Lively v Baldoni about?
In Dispute: Lively v Baldoni is a 60-minute investigative documentary produced by ITN Productions and broadcast on Investigation Discovery. It provides a detailed exploration of the ongoing legal dispute between actors Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni, co-stars of the 2024 film It Ends With Us.
According to Page Six, the documentary presents both perspectives of the legal battle, unpacking Lively’s allegations of s*xual misconduct and Baldoni’s countersuit. Lively filed a complaint with the California Civil Rights Department on December 20, 2024, claiming that Baldoni engaged in inappropriate behavior on set and subsequently initiated a smear campaign through a crisis PR firm.
Eleven days later, she filed a federal lawsuit. In response, Baldoni filed a $400 million countersuit in January 2025 against Lively, her husband Ryan Reynolds, and her publicist Leslie Sloane, alleging defamation and civil extortion.
The documentary contextualizes the dispute within broader industry conversations, including social media narratives and the #MeToo movement. According to Marie Claire UK, the documentary also refers to Baldoni’s release of a 168-page rebuttal, including texts and photos, to challenge Lively’s assertions.
The program explores not only the allegations and legal filings but also the public fallout, such as Baldoni being dropped by his agency and the resignation of a podcast co-host.
The US release of In Dispute: Lively v Baldoni follows the earlier UK broadcast of He Said, She Said: Blake Lively vs Justin Baldoni, a 90-minute version aired on Channel 5. Both editions investigate how the legal proceedings, now set for trial in March 2026, have already affected public perception and industry dynamics.
