Blake Lively's Co-Star Michele Morrone Claims She Was 'In Pain' After Filming 'It Ends With Us'

Blake Lively's "It Ends With Us" costar Michele Morrone has expressed support for her amid her legal complaint against the film's director, Justin Baldoni.

Morrone's message of support comes after the movie's author, Colleen Hoover, declared support for Lively.

Another of Lively's costars, Brandon Sklenar, also took to social media to encourage his followers to read an article about the full complaint she filed last Friday.

On Monday, Morrone took to his Instagram Stories to share an emotional video where he stood up for Lively amid her legal battle with Baldoni.

Morrone said in the video, "So it is usually not my thing to make those kinds of videos, but I think it's time to stand up for a person that I really love and this person is Blake Lively."

The Italian actor revealed that he met Blake during "A Simple Favor 2" when they shot an "incredible" film together. He added, "I felt something was wrong, and I felt the pain and then we had the opportunity to talk, me and her ... Blake was in pain."

Morrone said he was tired of hearing bad and cruel comments about Lively from people who didn't know the situation. He shared the New York Times article about Lively's legal complaint and pleaded with his followers to read it.

The actor said, "So that's why I want to link right here the article from the New York Times just to make you understand before commenting what happened. That's all I ask. That's what I want you to do."

Morrone concluded by expressing love to Lively, saying, "Blake, I love you so much. Keep it up, and we're going to see each other very, very soon. Love you."

Morrone's message of support came two days after "It Ends With Us" author Colleen Hoover posted a similar message on her Instagram Stories.

Hoover shared a picture of herself and Lively hugging at the film's screening and captioned it, "@blakelively, you have been nothing but honest, kind, supportive and patient since the day we met."

She concluded, "Thank you for being exactly the human that you are. Never change. Never wilt."

Like Morrone, Hoover also shared a link to the New York Times article on Lively's lawsuit.

Another of Blake Lively's costars, Brandon Sklenar, also urged his followers to read her full legal complaint.

On Monday, Sklenar took to his Instagram Stories page to share a screenshot of the actress's full complaint from the New York Times website.

Sklenar wrote in the post's caption, "For the love of God, read this." He also tagged Lively and added a red heart emoji.

The "1923" actor also posted a message on Instagram addressing all the "stuff swirling online."

In the post, He said Hoover and all the women in the "It Ends With Us" cast stood for "hope, perseverance, and for women choosing a better life for themselves."

Sklenar added, "Villifying the women who put so much of their heart and soul into making this film because they believe so strongly in its message seems counterproductive and detracts from what this film is about."

The actor concluded by asking people to stop spreading hate on the internet, adding, "Let's be part of something better together. A part of a new story being written for women and all people everywhere."

Last Friday, Lively filed a lawsuit against Baldoni, who portrayed her love interest in "It Ends With Us."

She accused him of sexual harassment and claimed that he created a hostile working environment on the set.

The 37-year-old also claimed that she called for a meeting to address Baldoni's behavior and made some demands, which he agreed to.

However, Lively claimed the filmmaker and his PR team led a smear campaign against her after the meeting.

Baldoni responded to Lively's legal complaint via a statement from his attorney, Bryan Freedman.

He described Lively's claims as "completely false, outrageous and intentionally salacious with an intent to publicly hurt." Freedman also claimed that the actress used the lawsuit to "rehash a narrative in the media."

Meanwhile, Baldoni was dropped by the talent agency WME following Lively's lawsuit. Additionally, the movie director's Voices of Solidarity Award, which he received from the Vital Voices charity, has been rescinded.
