Justin Baldoni has recently clapped back at Blake Lively’s defamation case.

On January 16, the American director filed a $400 million lawsuit against Lively and Ryan Reynolds for extortion and defamation.

In a recent filing of a 179-page complaint, he accused his co-star Lively that she pressured him to change the script of It Ends With Us by using the megastar Taylor Swift's name.

As per People in the provided evidence the text of Baldoni read as, “Also was working on rooftop scene today, I really love what you did. It really does hep a lot.”

Recalling the scene when the costars first met on a rooftop, and continued, “Makes it so much more fun and interesting.”

Referring to Lively’s husband, Reynolds and famous songstress friend Taylor Swift, he wrote, “(And I would have felt that way without Ryan and Taylor) You really are a talent across the board. Really excited nd grateful to do this together.”

In response to Baldoni’s message which was written on pages 23 to 25, Lively’s text stated as, “They also know I’m not always as good at making sure I’m seen and utilized for fear of threatening egos, or fear of affecting the ease of the process.”

“They don’t give a shit about that. And because of that, everyone listens to them with immense respect and enthusiasm. So I guess I have to stop worrying about people liking me.”

Moreover, she compared herself to the famous HBO series Games Of Thrones’ Khaleesi, which is portrayed by Emilia Clarke.

“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 for better.”

“Because my dragons also protect those I fight for. So really we all benefit from those gorgeous monsters of mine. You will too, I can promise you.”

“Baldoni was not just dealing with Lively. He was also facing Lively’s ‘dragons,’ two of the most influential and wealthy celebrities in the world, who were not afraid to make things very difficult for him,” the complaint concluded as saying.
