Ryan Reynolds demands Justin Baldoni defamation lawsuit be dismissed, believes he’s a ‘predator’: court docs
Fox News
Blake Lively's husband filed to dismiss Justin Baldoni's lawsuit. Ryan Reynolds was included in Lively's "It Ends With Us" co-star's claims after she accused the actor of sexual harassment.
The "Deadpool" star's legal team claimed "the entirety of [Baldoni's] defamation claim appears to be based on two times that Mr. Reynolds allegedly called Mr. Baldoni a ‘predator.’"
"But, the FAC [First Amended Complaint] alleges no plausible facts that suggest Mr. Reynolds did not believe this comment to be true; instead, the relevant FAC allegations suggest that Mr. Reynolds genuinely, perhaps passionately, believes that Mr. Baldoni’s behavior is reflective of a ‘predator,’" the documents, obtained by Fox News Digital, stated.
"The entirety of Mr. Baldoni’s case appears to be based on Mr. Reynolds allegedly privately calling Mr. Baldoni a ‘predator,’ but here is the problem, that is not defamation unless they can show that Mr. Reynolds did not believe that statement to be true," Reynolds' lawyers, Mike Gottlieb and Esra Hudson, said in a statement to Fox News Digital.
