Blake Lively to Testify Against Justin Baldoni in 2026 Trial

Hollywood actress Blake Lively will take the witness stand in March 2026 to testify under oath against her former It Ends with Us co-star and director, Justin Baldoni. Her lawyer, Mike Gottlieb, confirmed her upcoming testimony, calling it "the ultimate moment for a plaintiff's story to be told." This trial is expected to gain massive public and media attention.

The Case Against Justin Baldoni

Blake Lively also claims that after reporting the incident, she faced retaliation and was targeted by a smear campaign. The legal battle focuses on these serious allegations.

Blake Lively’s Court Appearance and Witnesses

Lively will not stand alone. Several other individuals are expected to testify, including those who may have witnessed or experienced similar misconduct on set. Their live testimonies will likely add weight to the claims being brought forward.

When and Where Is the Trial Happening?

The trial is set for March 26 in New York. While the trial is public, no cameras will be allowed inside the courtroom. It is expected to be a major legal event due to the celebrity names involved.

Unusual Deposition Proposal

In a surprising move, Baldoni’s legal team suggested hosting Lively’s deposition at Madison Square Garden. Legal experts say this is more of a publicity stunt than a real proposal.

Will Ryan Reynolds or Taylor Swift Be Involved?

While fans speculate whether Blake’s husband Ryan Reynolds or her close friend Taylor Swift might be asked to testify, her lawyer confirmed the case strictly revolves around the harassment and retaliation claims—not on celebrity associations.
