The directors are very into themselves.
So are you, Blake.
Anyway, that alone, his personality, it does not mean that you have the grounds to allegedly steal a project that he and his company has paid for, that they have the options for, and yet Blake and Colleen are preemptively talking about what they will do with this next film when they allegedly take it over.
But guys, it didn't even end there.
There is more evidence, because remember,
This was again last year, how Blake was bragging to and sort of threatening Justin in old text messages about her cohort of Game of Thrones-style dragons that she had in her corner, and it definitely felt a little edgy and like she was pushing him.
Well, we officially know who was in that collection of dragons.
In order to back up her hostile takeover of the film, she brought in the Avengers of A-list actors.
Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, Bradley Cooper, Hugh Jackman, and of course, her husband, Ryan Reynolds.
And in all of these communications, she is asserting that she took over the film, not even hiding it.
Listen to this.
Lively told famous friends, including Matt Damon, Lucy Damon, his wife, Ben Affleck, that she, quote, rewrote the script.
I directed every actor, is what she said.
She also did not hesitate to disparage Baldoni among her Hollywood crowd, describing him to Ben Affleck, for example, as a, quote, chaotic clown.
That was in an extremely long email that she wrote to Ben Affleck.
Quote, I ended up rewriting and restructuring the entire script.
I also ended up having to direct the movie via the chaotic clown, director, actor, producer, financer, studio head at the center.
Now those were just some of the friends that we know she spoke to thanks to this court filing.
We also know that Hugh Jackman was literally there supporting her, working on Deadpool Wolverine with Ryan.
He was at the premiere.
