It was already pretty easy to divide the people making this summer’s romantic drama blockbuster It Ends With Us into different camps—something the movie’s stars basically did themselves, after the film’s cast allegedly refused to do press appearances with director and co-star Justin Baldoni in the lead-up to the movie’s release. We could, for instance, infer—given that he filmed jokey promos for the movie with her husband Ryan Reynolds (and also Hugh Jackman and Reynolds’ mom)—that star Brandon Sklenar was on Blake Lively’s side in what was a clandestine conflict with Baldoni, and some of the film’s other producers, over allegations of sexual harassment on the movie’s set. Now that those allegations aren’t clandestine—with Lively having lodged a formal complaint against Baldoni, accusing him of both inappropriate behavior while making the movie, and ordering a shadowy PR campaign to ruin her reputation after its release—Sklenar has once again used social media to make sure people know which side of the conflict he’s on.
