Brandon Sklenar has finally addressed the swirling controversy surrounding his former It Ends With Us co-stars, Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni.
While promoting the second season of 1923, the actor was put on the spot about where he stands in the ongoing legal battle.
The Legal War: A Quick Recap
For those who haven’t been keeping up, here’s what’s gone down so far:
- Lively has accused Baldoni of sexual harassment and orchestrating a smear campaign against her.
- Baldoni fired back with a $250 million lawsuit against The New York Times and later hit Lively and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, with a $400 million countersuit.
- The legal mess has left Hollywood divided, with both stars facing intense media scrutiny.
“I’m Team It Ends With Us” – Sklenar’s Diplomatic Response
When asked by CBS Mornings’ Gayle King if he was “Team Blake Lively or Team Justin Baldoni,” Brandon Sklenar cleverly dodged the drama. With a laugh, he said, “I’m Team It Ends With Us.”
Instead of fueling the fire, he emphasized the film’s core message. “I just want people to remember why we made the movie in the first place and what it stands for,” he explained. “The focus should be on the story and the conversations it sparks, not the controversy.”
Did Sklenar Subtly Support Lively?
While Sklenar has publicly remained neutral, some fans think he may have quietly taken sides back in December. He reportedly shared a link to Lively’s complaint on his Instagram Story with the caption, “FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, READ THIS.”
Was it an endorsement of her claims, or just an attempt to highlight the bigger picture? The jury’s still out.
What’s Next for Sklenar?
Despite the media storm, Sklenar is staying focused on his career. With 1923 gaining momentum and new projects lined up, he’s making it clear he doesn’t want to be defined by the Lively-Baldoni drama.
Hollywood may be in the middle of a legal showdown, but Sklenar is keeping his head down and letting the films speak for themselves.
