The cast of “It Ends With Us” is now publicly choosing a side Blake Lively's fight against sexual harassment Justin Baldonithe director of the film.
Brandon Sklenarwho plays Atlas Corrigan in the film, encouraged fans to delve into the full complaint Blake filed against Baldoni … telling his Instagram followers, “For God's sake read this.”
He made it clear that he stands behind Blake by tagging her in the IG story and adding a red heart emoji.
It's unclear whether Brandon – who also stars in the “Yellowstone” prequel “1923” – was aware of the issues between Blake and Baldoni during filming.
TMZ broke the story … Blake claims in legal documents that Baldoni created a hostile work environment on the set of “It Ends” … he showed her lurid videos of his wife, discussed his sex life and more. Her complaint also includes text messages between Baldoni's PR team detailing a smear campaign against Blake.
Blake believes the campaign to publicly take her down was retaliation for her calling for an “all-hands meeting” during filming to openly discuss Baldoni's alleged behavior.
Of course, it's no secret that Blake and Justin didn't get along when the film came out earlier this year. They never posed together at the premiere or promoted the film together.

At the time, it was widely believed that this was the case based on creative differences towards the movie…some Brandon addressed at the timeHe said: “Vilifying the women who put so much heart and soul into making this film because they believe so strongly in its message seems counterproductive and distracts from what this film is about.”
However, Blake's filing claims that the feud with Justin was based on something more sinister.
Baldoni's lawyer Bryan Freedman has said: “It is shameful that Ms. Lively and her representatives would make such serious and categorically false allegations. These claims are completely false, outrageous and deliberately salacious with the intent to publicly offend and rehash a media narrative.”
In addition to Brandon's support, Blake received support from several other friends and actors, some of whom were not involved in the film Amber Heard – who has a personal history with Baldoni’s embattled PR team – and Michele Morronewho starred alongside Blake in “A Simple Favor 2.”
In a video post, Michele said, “It's not usually my place to make videos like this, but I think it's time to stand up for a person that I truly love, and that person is Blake Lively.”
Just like Brandon, Michele urged fans to read the full complaint against Baldoni.
