Justin Baldoni<\/a> is calling out Blake Lively<\/a>‘s recent request to block talk about her net worth from their upcoming trial … telling the New York judge all that is super important — especially ’cause Blake brought her money into the drama in the first place!<\/p>\n In legal docs filed by the actor and director Friday, and obtained by TMZ … he argues talking about all the dough Blake is rolling in is relevant because she alleged she’s lost millions of bucks due to the alleged smear campaign she claims Justin leveraged against her. She claims she lost $161 million<\/a> as a result of Justin dragging her name through the mud.<\/p>\n Justin doesn’t just want Blake’s financial status and income streams<\/a> brought up in the trial — he says it’s important her hubby Ryan Reynolds<\/a>‘ is discussed, too, because she “typically does not accept acting opportunities which conflict with Reynolds\u2019 acting schedule \u2013 particularly when he is able to garner a higher income for his movies than she can.”<\/p>\n <\/p>\n As we told you, Blake and Ryan are reportedly worth approximately $380 million … a figure unrelatable to your average jury. But, we already know the judge\u00a0threw out<\/a> Blake’s defamation claim … so there’s an argument that her financial loss from that claim is irrelevant at this point.<\/p>\n Justin is also requesting Ryan’s Nicepool character from “Deadpool & Wolverine” be brought up in the trial … after the “Gossip Girl” alum asked for that to be barred as well. Remember, Justin is arguing Nicepool makes fun of him — therefore showing Ryan and Blake are bullies.<\/p>\n He’s telling the judge this needs to be a topic presented to the jury to show his image was under assault within a popular movie, and that’s why he engaged a crisis management team. He says this is the only reason he needed the crisis team … not Blake’s allegation that he hired one to retaliate against her.<\/p>\n And remember — this isn’t the first time he’s asked for thinks to be cut from the trial — he asked the judge to prohibit the accounts of “It Ends With Us” star Jenny Slate<\/a>\u00a0and author\u00a0Colleen Hoover<\/a>, calling their alleged experiences a “grab bag of awkward comments, minor confrontations, and perceived slights would have been inadmissible even if Lively\u2019s sexual harassment claims proceeded to trial.”<\/p>\n Play video content<\/p>\n Blake has submitted legal docs saying Jenny and other actresses distanced themselves from the “Jane the Virgin” star after witnessing inappropriate behavior by him on set … and therefore refusing to promote their film with him.<\/p>\n![\"Justin-Baldoni-Blake-Lively-Timeline-Thumbnail\"](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/6ac15cc918fa4401b3368431b27d280a_md.jpg\")
