The pictures included in Justin Baldoni's lawsuit have emerged online, allegedly depicting Justin Baldoni and his loved ones being 'held' in a basement by Blake Lively.

AceShowbiz - Among the evidences included in the $400 million lawsuit filed by "It Ends With Us" director Justin Baldoni against co-star Blake Lively and her husband, Ryan Reynolds are photos from the night of the movie's premiere. The pictures have since spread on the internet.

In a shocking claim, Baldoni alleges that he and his loved ones were "held" in a basement during the film's premiere in New York City on August 6, 2024. While Lively and Reynolds posed on the red carpet, Baldoni and his group were forced to wait in a room away from the spotlight.

Dressed to the nines, Baldoni, his family and friends are seen sitting at a table in a dimly lit room, with boxes of popcorn and soda bottles. In another image, Baldoni poses with friends against a backdrop of stacked water bottles while wearing the same pink suit he wore on the red carpet.

Baldoni alleges that his guests were "ushered" into this makeshift holding area and "subsequently held" there to "avoid even a chance of interaction with Lively or her guests" once she arrived at the event.

"They were confined to a makeshift holding area surrounded by concession stand stock, with only fold-out tables and chairs arranged in a square," the suit states. "Surrounded by close friends, family, soda bottles, and a lot of love, the irony of being held in a basement on what was arguably one of the most important nights of Baldoni's career thus far, was not lost on anyone."

This dramatic claim comes amidst an ongoing legal battle between Baldoni and Lively. Lively previously filed a lawsuit against Baldoni, alleging toxic workplace on the set of "It Ends With Us".

Lively's lawsuit also alleges that Baldoni engaged in a "coordinated effort to destroy her reputation" following the film's release, causing harm to her career and causing her family "severe emotional distress."

In his countersuit, Baldoni accused Lively of extortion and defamation.

The "It Ends With Us" premiere was already shrouded in controversy, with rumors of a feud between Lively and Baldoni circulating due to their lack of joint appearances to promote the film.

This latest development in the legal battle between the two actors has sent shockwaves through Hollywood, raising questions about the power dynamics and behind-the-scenes maneuvering that can occur within the entertainment industry.
