In a recently surfaced voice message, actor and director Justin Baldoni is heard apologizing to co-star Blake Lively for his initial reaction to her proposed changes to a pivotal rooftop scene in their film "It Ends With Us." The audio, reportedly sent in April 2023, reveals Baldoni expressing regret for not ensuring Lively felt acknowledged and appreciated during their collaboration.

In the message, Baldoni acknowledges his shortcomings, stating, "I am far from perfect... I f---ed up." He commends Lively's dedication and the quality of her revisions, emphasizing his admiration for her trust and vulnerability. He also references a visit to Lively and her husband Ryan Reynolds' penthouse, where singer Taylor Swift praised Lively's script contributions.

This apology emerges amid an ongoing legal battle between the two actors. In December 2024, Lively filed a lawsuit accusing Baldoni of sexual harassment and retaliation during the film's production. Baldoni has countersued, alleging defamation and civil extortion. Both parties have denied the allegations against them.

The leaked voice note provides insight into the complexities of their professional relationship and the challenges faced during the film's production. As the legal proceedings continue, the entertainment industry closely watches the developments between these high-profile figures.
