Justin Baldoni’s absence from the promotional events for the movie ‘This Ends With Us’ has sparked rumors about a rift between him and the lead actress Blake Lively. At the premiere, fans were quick to notice that none of the cast members took pictures with Baldoni, even though he also directed the project. The gossip intensified when Jenny Slate was asked how Baldoni balanced acting in and directing the movie, and she cryptically responded, "it's a tough job." Lively's husband, Ryan Reynolds, has also been caught up in the speculation recently, ever since the actress revealed that he wrote the "iconic rooftop scene." This has led fans to question whether the couple’s involvement in the film may have been excessive, potentially infringing on Baldoni’s creative freedom as a director. However, Baldoni has consistently expressed how important the film is to him, which has made him a key figure in the anticipation surrounding the movie. Some fans have already called for boycotts, refusing to be a part of Lively’s alleged "bullying.” So far, neither actor has commented on the rumors, but they are expected to address them soon due to the speculation surrounding the movie.
