Judge Narrows Blake Lively's Lawsuit Against Justin Baldoni

A federal judge has dismissed actor Blake Lively's sexual harassment claims against Justin Baldoni, significantly narrowing the scope of her lawsuit over their film 'It Ends With Us'.

While the main harassment claims were dismissed, Lively can still pursue a retaliation claim, asserting that Baldoni's production company, Wayfarer Studios, retaliated against her for speaking out about misconduct, potentially impacting her career prospects.

Judge Lewis Liman's decision marks a pivotal moment in the case, which has garnered attention in Hollywood, involving high-profile figures like Taylor Swift and Hugh Jackman. The trial is set for May 18, where Lively will present her retaliation claims, continuing her fight for safety on film sets.
