Details from Blake Lively’s alleged unsigned draft contract for It Ends Like Us have been revealed amid the ongoing Justin Baldoni lawsuit. 

The 38-year-old actress, whose name was conspicuously absent from husband Ryan Reynolds’ recent speech, was reportedly in line to receive over $1.7 million plus various bonuses, as reported by Us Weekly on Friday.

On Thursday, Baldoni, who recently faced new harassment allegations, along with his team, made public court documents related to their ongoing legal dispute with Lively regarding the 2024 film.

The unsigned contract, dated May 5, 2023, indicated that Lively was expected to receive $1.75 million in ‘fixed’ compensation to feature in the film.

Daily Mail has reached out to reps for Lively for comment and have yet to hear back. 

The agreement also mentioned that the mother of four would earn 10% of the gross proceeds from “It Ends With Us,” in addition to further millions based on box office success and potential award nominations.

Amid the ongoing Justin Baldoni lawsuit, Us Weekly exposed details from Blake Lively’s alleged draft contract for “It Ends Like Us,” asserting she was poised to earn over $1.7 million along with multiple possible bonuses.

According to Us Weekly, the bonus structure specified she would receive $250,000 if the movie’s total gross from theaters reached an amount three times the production’s ‘direct cost.’

In addition she would also received another $250,000 if it reached another milestone on top of another $250,000 if It Ends With Us made five times the ‘direct cost of the film.

If that already wasn’t enough, she would also be paid $100,000 if she was nominated for an Academy Award and $200,000 total if she took home the Oscar.

Awards season had potential to be a big money making time for her as she could have earned $75,000 for a Golden Globe Nomination and $100,000 if she earned a win in addition to $50,000 for a SAG Award nomination and $75,000 for a win, however, she was not nominated for any awards.

The alleged contract also provided Lively have approval of the driver who would be taking her to and from work and she was also to have exclusive use of a single pop-out, star trailer (including customary amenities) for her use in New Jersey.

When the shoot would take place in Las Vegas, it was stated that Lively would be given a private jet that would fit her in addition to her four children, her assistant, two nannies, and her security team. She also wanted $1,500 to cover assistant fees.

Lively would have also received $1,000 per week for training a meal allowance in addition to provisions that all parties take any issues to arbitration and not file them in public court.

Last month it was revealed that Baldoni is facing further scrutiny as another individual has come forward with claims of harassment, according to court documents obtained by The Daily Mail at the time.

In a sworn declaration, filed by Lively’s lawyer, the individual, whose name has been redacted, alleged they endured ‘repeated, negative interactions with Mr. Baldoni and his associates, including verbal abuse by Mr. Baldoni.’ 

The unnamed person further claimed that Baldoni was ‘not permitted on set during the majority of production as a result of those experiences.’

The individual also said they requested that Baldoni ‘not be involved in marketing or public relations efforts.’

A source told TMZ that the individual is ‘likely to testify against Justin in Lively’s trial.’

Although the declaration does not concern It Ends with Us, the accuser stated they previously collaborated with Baldoni on a different project connected to his company, Wayfarer Studios.

The filing also references Baldoni’s business partner, Wayfarer co-founder Steve Sarowitz, noting that the accuser had been contacted by Sarowitz’s assistant to arrange a meeting, though no specific topic for the discussion was identified.

The documents, filed September 4, 2025, were submitted under penalty of perjury.

The allegations surfaced just as Lively filed a sweeping new motion seeking attorney’s fees, treble damages, and punitive damages against Baldoni’s company Wayfarer Studios and its executives.

In the 30-page filing in federal court, Lively’s lawyers argue that Wayfarer’s defamation lawsuit against her was ‘baseless from the start’ and amounted to a retaliatory attack after she reported harassment and retaliation. 

The motion accuses the company of attempting to ‘damage her credibility and conceal their own unlawful acts’ by flooding the public docket with redacted exhibits and character attacks.

Lively’s team argues the conduct fits squarely into what California Civil Code Section 47.1 was designed to prevent — retaliatory lawsuits against those who come forward with harassment complaints.

Under that statute, Lively is asking the court to impose severe penalties, including treble damages and punitive damages, and to recognize her as the ‘prevailing defendant’ entitled to recover legal fees.

The motion also cites alleged threats made by Sarowitz, who was described as vowing to spend $100 million to ruin the lives of Lively and her husband, Ryan Reynolds.

According to the filing, Sarowitz allegedly declared at one point: ‘I will protect the studio like Israel protected itself from Hamas. There were 39,000 dead bodies. There will be two dead bodies when I’m done. Minimum. Not dead, but “you’re dead to me.” So that kind of dead. But dead to a lot of people’

Baldoni and Lively has been embroiled in a legal battle for months.

In December 2024, the actress sued Justin for allegedly sexually harassing her on set — claims he denied – before he and Wayfarer Studios fired back with a defamation suit against Blake, her publicist Leslie Sloane and husband Ryan Reynolds.

Justin also waged war with The New York Times, filing a $250million lawsuit against the publication over its bombshell tell-all on Lively’s sexual harassment claims against her former co-star on December 31, 2024.

The New York Times denied the allegations. 

On June 9, however, it was learned that a judge dismissed Baldoni’s lawsuit in a major setback for the actor’s hopes for a blockbuster win over the millionaire actress.

Judge Lewis J Liman dismissed Baldoni’s suit alleging defamation and extortion on the basis that all Lively’s allegations were made within privileged court papers.

The judge said in the order obtained by DailyMail.com: ‘The Wayfarer Parties have not alleged that Lively is responsible for any statements other than the statements in her CRD complaint, which are privileged.

A source also claimed to the outlet that the person is ‘likely to testify against Justin in Lively’s trial; Lively and  Baldoni pictured in their 2024 film It Ends with Us

‘The Wayfarer Parties have alleged that Reynolds and [publicist Leslie] Sloane made additional statements accusing Baldoni of sexual misconduct and that the Times made additional statements accusing the Wayfarer Parties of engaging in a smear campaign.

‘But the Wayfarer Parties have not alleged that Reynolds, Sloane or the Times would have seriously doubted these statements were true based on the information available to them, as is required for them to be liable for defamation under applicable law.

‘The Wayfarer Parties’ additional claims also fail. Accordingly, the Amended Complaint must be dismissed in its entirety.’

The judge ruled: ‘The Times reviewed the available evidence and reported, perhaps in a dramatized manner, what it believed to have happened. The Times had no obvious motive to favor Lively’s version of events.’

He dismissed the lawsuit against The New York Times as well.
