Bringing the Film to Life

 

After years of development, the elements for the film finally align. Sony steps in to distribute and co-finance, while Lively is cast in the role of Lily. In the lead-up to filming, she and Baldoni work diligently to establish a strong rapport through lengthy text exchanges and conversations. However, early signs of creative tension begin to surface.

Script Changes and Collaboration

 

Baldoni’s complaint reveals that Lively proposes alterations to a rooftop scene at the film’s outset, inviting her director to her New York City home on April 12, 2023, for a discussion.

Unexpected Guests and Pressure

 

To Baldoni’s surprise, he finds Lively’s husband, Ryan Reynolds, and her friend, Taylor Swift, at the meeting. The two high-profile figures commend Lively’s interpretation of the scene, which, according to Baldoni’s lawsuit, creates a sense of pressure for him to accept the proposed changes. He later texts Lively, expressing that he didn’t require their input, as he appreciates her vision for the scene.

A Playful Reference

 

On April 14, Lively sends Baldoni a text referring to Reynolds and Swift as her “dragons,” drawing a parallel to the character Daenerys Targaryen from Game of Thrones. She writes, “If you ever get around to watching Game of Thrones, you’ll appreciate that I’m Khaleesi, and like her, I happen to have a few dragons. For better or worse, but usually better. Because my dragons also protect those I fight for.”

Apologies and Late-Night Conversations

 

The ongoing dialogue regarding the scene rewrite prompts Baldoni to send Lively a heartfelt six-minute voice message at 2 a.m., apologizing for any distress he may have caused. He concludes the recording with a light-hearted remark: “You probably have kids all over you and a baby on your boob, and you’re listening to me ramble at 2 in the morning.”
