Justin Baldoni accuses Blake Lively of unjustly demanding a producer credit and mark on It Ends With Us and In Touch obtained the letter he said he felt forced to write on her…

On June 27, 2024, Justin’s production partner Jamey Heath allegedly sent an email to his lawyers and Justin, explaining his frustration with Blake’s request.

In the email, Jamey allegedly said, “We received a request to write a recommendation on behalf of Blake for her to receive the PGA mark. This was a request that we felt was unreasonable and cold hearted. Essentially, the movie … has been taken unjustly from Justin as a director and essentially from Wayfarer’s control due to the extortion of Blake.”

“Without going into all the details of the events that transpired over the months, Justin and I ended up agreeing to write the letter due to feeling trapped. She continues to hold a threat over our heads and every time we try and hold a line she uses that threat directly or indirectly to get us to fold,” Jamey said.

Jamey attached the letter that both he and Justin, 40, allegedly sent to the Producers Guild of America. Jamey and Justin wrote the guild, “We hope this letter finds you well. We are writing to inform you of the significant role and contributions that Blake Lively has played in the making of the film, It Ends With Us.”

They added, “We’ve been directly involved in overseeing every step of development from adapting the book to the big screens to bringing on our co-financier//distributor, Sony, and of course, casting our lead.”

“From the time Blake was brought on, she has had an instrumental voice in many different aspects in the making of the film. Her contributions have been impactful as she was consulted with many of the casting options, she helped to refine the script, she redesigned her own wardrobe as well as gave notes on others, she contributed to the production design and set decoration and had influence on how many of the scenes were shot,” the letter continued. “Blake has been very involved in the post process. She has had an active role in the edit, the sound mix and has made decision on the music selection and score. She also continues to find creative ways to promote the film so that it can achieve its greatest success.”
