@@johanna2690 I agree. He's such a modern man who understands modern women and knows how to relate to them. The model he's proposing is the way forward in my opinion.
@@Leslie27275oh, no, no, no. Do not get confused. He is the ONLY one who took the story seriously, it seems. Lively is just prancing around all bubbly and mor*nic talking about florals and entrepreneurship and dismissing what the movie is about. A woman trying to muster up the courage to leave and break the cycle of dv
God he’s such a sweetheart to all the women who participated in the project just for quotes to come out in media of the author saying “she never wants to work with him again”. And Blake being so dismissive during promos. Give this man more credit!
In all the interviews so far, he’s making it about the movie and awareness, where many other actors make these PR interview all about them. He shows great empathy and emotional intelligence, it’s absolutely no wonder he’s chosen to take the high road.
Omg he should’ve been front and center of every promo interview bc wow can that man speak so eloquently. Bravo Justin. I’m only watching the movie bc of him.
I hate to take a man’s side on drama but just by listening to their tone on interviews, theres such a contrast. This is such a thoughtful caring man. He’s talking so glowingly. And all she’s doing is acting like the queen of mean girls. #teamjustin
I. 100% AGREE WITH U . SHE MAD COS SHE NOT #1. AND SHE KKNO TRYING TO USE HER FRIENDSHIP WTH TAYLOR SWUFT TO PUT OUT FIRE SHE HAS CREATED BECAUSE SHE IN HOT SEAT AND BEING CALLED GOR HER SHENANIGANS....SHE PRETTY BUT SHE HAS GOTTN BIG HEAD ...SHE AINT THT OTHERS BEETTER THAN HER
My mother died at the hands of an abusive, violent husband, who was also my father. I sincerely hope this film gives women like my mother, strength and courage to walk away. This looks like a beautifully done film. Unfortunately, I don't think I could endure the pain of watching it.
Sorry for your loss. My mum didn’t die from the abuse from my father but her remaining years were so sad. The movie was hard for me to watch. It’s been really disturbing watching Blake and Jennie totally miss the mark while promoting the movie.
So sorry for your loss. Peace to your heart. I saw the movie tonight and thought it was well done. There is tension where there should be, and light-hearted less as well.
He’s the best interview on this movie. He’s so passionate about the message. He went out of his way to purchase this book and bring it to life. Looking at his directing past, you can see he directs about difficult topics he wants to bring light to. I don’t believe the mean girls for a minute. They just want to tap into Blake’s it girl popularity instead of Justin’s depth.
he's gorgeous and so caring! i first saw him in jane the virgin, then he directed ''Five feet apart'' about two teens who have cystic fibrosis, bringing awareness to this disorder. Thank you Justin, for being you, choosing projects that have something important to convey!
I honest to god believe justin isn't that morally sound. In comparision to the hollycouple, sure ,but my Unpopular opinion is why was this man going around for 2 yrs trying to make a movie out of a book that glamorizes ab*se!?! Evn with so many women raising alarm about the books impact on impressionable mind ever since. It seems he is now trying to do damage control or play silent victim ,and lucky for him both idiots blake and ryan are making it easy for him. The book is the problem in the firat place
@@Oceangrace90 I haven't read the book but from the trailer and the interviews I understand that in the end Lilly Bloom makes a different decision for her self and leaves her abusive husband. That's the point of the movie and the book. To show that in the beginning no one is abusive from the start of the relationship and the struggle that women have. Justin and Blake said exactly that. That if someone in an abusive relationship watch the film and takes courage from the story and decides to change his/her life is why they made the movie. Justin also wrote a book Man Enough and has a podcast to express his feelings about masculinity.... So I don't think Justin is the problem... If you're talking about the fued that may happening between him and Blake....
@KaterinaV team Justin .I have been following him since Jane the Virgin and have seen him and his wife Emily's pod cast. He is genuine and a good man. I stand with Justin💯💯💯💯
It's nice to see how responsible and human he is in his approach to this movie. He isn’t just talking about the glamour or outfits; he's having real conversations about the subject matter, bringing it to the table, and saying, 'This is an uncomfortable topic-let's talk about it.' I just feel like the shit he's getting isn't justified. The movie he directed was hijacked, and as an act of grace, he 'stepped aside,' but I can't help feeling like he shouldn't have had to. Yes, a woman's voice, such as Blake Lively's, may have been important, but when your voice starts to drown out others and you make something that’s about DV and the trauma it causes about you, then it's fair for me to say something isn’t right here, and there's a lot more to this that we aren't seeing. Someone is painting a narrative about this man, and I am proud that he has kept his integrity through it all.

@@Oceangrace90 As a DV survivor myself, I never saw him as trying to glamorize the subject, rather than humanize it and show what it's truly like to be in it. I want young, impressionable women to see what the red flags look like. How powerful, beautiful, and intense the love feels which allows for blurring the lines and forgiveness. He tried making the right movie AND not shying away from the difficult subject. He tried hard to give women their voice and in the process one woman took it away from him.
@@Oceangrace90an unpopular fact is that abusive relationships are often very exciting, and extremely romantically and sexually charged. the highest highs and lowest lows. women don’t only stay out of fear of harm they also stay because the beginning was so magical that they are believing the abuser could be that again.. please be serious. he’s not glamorizing he is showing the truth. i’m a survivor. and i can tell you truthfully that this man is clearly trying to do a good thing for society and he has a healing spirit. we have got to stop being so angry and offended at people who don’t have bad intentions.
I watched the movie last night and it did trigger past feelings of my own DM in a past relationship. I cried, closed my eyes and looked away a few times. My daughter held my hand and told me we could leave if I wanted to. But I was glad I went and watched it with my daughter. After the movie we talked about it and about DV. I was also glad the sex scenes & DV scenes were not as gráficas as other movies are. It could of definitely gone to another level and I’m glad it didn’t. Yes both men & women need to get help and heal so we don’t keep hurting ourselves/others or stay in toxic relationships. Sometimes you are better parents apart.
Wow, what an amazing interview. Loved him in “Jane the Virgin” but now I have a new level of respect for him as an actor, director and person. I haven’t seen this movie yet and already I understand everything he talked about, every concept and experience that he hasn’t gone through. But the way he speaks on behalf of those women going through this on a daily basis is just absolutely beautiful and ridiculously relatable! What a genius of a person he is. You can tell he really understands the topic even if he’s never lived through this himself. Brilliantly delivered! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
He seems like such a deep reflective human being, i would love to know what happened on set that the entire crew decided to not take photos with him or go on the press tour together. He is one of the main characters. Kind a unprofessional from the others i feel.
i believe when you are as high frequency as this man is you will absolutely trigger those who are living in a lower frequency. hateful worldly bullies could never achieve this sort of inner peace so they attack attack attack. the truth always comes to light thank God for that!
my guess is Blake wanted things her way (perhaps more romcom vs focusing more on the DV issue) this divide is very evident if you watch Blake's interviews vs his interviews on this press tour. And Blake being the producer, having the Hollywood clout, a famous & rich husband, probably influenced the rest of the cast to side with her vs this relatively newcomer director. She gives off queenbee vibes and someone who wants to be the center of attention always (saying this bc she never gets along w her main costars, Leighton Meester from GG, Anna Kendrick from A simple favor, and now this guy. Also find it interesting she's never seen hanging w Selena Gomez even tho her BFF in the whole wide world lol, TSwift, is best friends w Selena. Ofc you dont get along w all your friends friends.. but it's another example that adds to this assumption).
@@trendylova I think you’re so right. I think it could have been even better if they would have taken the other route ( DV). Not just the love story that was still missing something.
Getting out of an abusive relationship has been one of the biggest accomplishments in my life. Thankfully I found a guy who has been patient with me and help me through moments when my PTSD has been triggered. This movie was a reminder of what I was able to overcome. Anyone who has been through it you know just how strong you have to be to get out. I honestly thought that I would never get out. But God is good and with his help I was able to see that my staying there was not me loving me. Such a touching film!
Justin is such a class act guy! I truly respect his honesty and vulnerability he brings into every project. It’s super cool to see someone’s passion transform into a project that creates conversations amongst the masses.
Justin Baldoni is handling all this ordeal with class, dignity. I am so disappointed to BL and even Jason who’s obviously taking her side. It was so wrong to promote her alcohol line and beauty line at the same time. I feel bad for Justin because the group of mean girls have excluded him but I’m sure he could handle it.
Isn’t he dear, empathetic, in touch and zen. He’s being gracious about the book and its context. He’s loveable. Gives a lot of credit to Blake who’s very undeserving, stealing the movie, from having Ryan take over scene, write, edited the Final Cut, Blake did the wardrobe also which was ugly and very unattractive style. They say Blake is tone deaf. Obviously Justin is not. He’s handling everything so well.
Im sure like any other job in the world there can be drama when people work together. But the way he speaks about Blake is taking the high road if there was drama. People love the gossip and lots of times we only get pieces of it and run with it when we don’t know all the details. I like the way he speaks in his interviews especially that he speaks against domestic violence! Bring it to the light where it should be
He tried to give her space so she could bring female perspective but she ends up taking over and kicking him out. She uses it to promote her hair brand, then promote her husband, promote her husband's movie.
I never saw the show "Jane the Virgin" so I was not familiar with Justin Baldoni's work and hadn't seen much of Blake Lively's work either. I also have not read the book that It Ends With Us. I saw the trailor of the movie at another movie and it looked interesting so I decided to go see it. Shortly before seeing it, I heard about the controversy that is surrounding the movie with it's two stars. My friend and I enjoyed the movie and thought the actors played their parts well and that the movie served the issue of DV well. Since seeing the movie, I have seen some clips of the movie's promotion and to be honest, I felt that Ms. Lively took the wrong path in how she promoted it and Mr. Baldoni took the appropriate path in giving the seriousness that a movie about DM deserves. After seeing this interview, I have to say that Mr. Baldoni impressed me with his intelligence, articulate manner, humility and compassion. I look forward to his future endeavors.
I adored this film. I actually knew nothing about it, had not read the book or seen a trailer, I had no expectations and wasn’t that familiar with many of the cast. But I though it was a wonderful but shocking story, so many highs and lows, acted beautifully by all involved. Sad to see there is drama behind the scenes, hopefully everyone can move past this and be super proud of the final result ❤
I love your heart, Justin! Can't wait to see and experience this powerful film. Thank you for telling stories that matter and make a difference. Many blessings bro!
A wonderful interview. Justin you nailed it in the complexity of the situation and the question as to why the question should be asked why are they the abuser rather than why is the abused staying, Can’t wait to see what you do next!

Justin Baldoni speaks so passionately about this movie and how he wants it impact men and women…but it also seems his role outside of a co-star was taken over by Blake 😕
I agree that it does seem that way, and I love Blake Lively. Seen interviews where she said she brought her own wardrobe pieces from her closet, her husband, and Gigi Hadids to use for the characters. A lot of the marketing I've seen is just Blake asking the cast all of the questions, and even from her living room are the interviews. She was involved a lot, as a producer should, that it overshadows the other co-stars, unfortunately. It's not her fault, though, that interviewers are focused on asking the wrong questions (seems more personal questions than about the movie). I loved the depth of this interview as it was a deep book. More of these type of interviews! He answers so eloquently.
@@lovelisali movies seem to borrow more and more tactics from reality shows. the bts seem to become more important than the actual movie, who in the end, let’s face it, most probably will be a mediocre tear jerker tv movie but with very good visuals.
It's true she and Ryan Reynolds are so over the top and annoying. I don't get why people like that annoying back and forth they do so much. It's irritating. Justin deserved a better co-star. He should've got someone new and younger.
@@lovelisali I agree with your analysis for the most part except that it is Blake's personality to take over because she is used to being around Ryan Reynolds so long that he has her walking around with a big ego like his. He's an a hole and she is too. Typical mean girl
Im always down to watch movies justin brings out and i dont know what justin does but it leaves a deep impression and the takeaway from the movie. The reason im even interested in this film/book not because of the actors but because of this director Justin baldoni
I watched the movie today loved it Now listening to the director i appreciate the movie xo much more he speaks with such deep meaning loved the movie thank you for this movie and hoping we can see more good calibre movies in the future not always searing and just sex but worthwhile movies that we can learn from Thank you Justin
You did an amazing job! Your acting was spectacular!! Do not let the drama cloud how proud you should be of sharing this film with us and the message it sends us women!! I love how sensitive and romantic you are...DO NOT CHANGE !!❤
@@Any-bl6hoBlake Lively and Ryan Reynolds are not the only hosts of a Plantation wedding,Justin Beiber and wife Hailey also had their own plantation wedding.Reese Witherspoon celebrated with a plantation wedding when she was three months pregnant.
Poor guy, he is finally having a huge moment and Blake is just pooping all over it with her mean girl charades. Figures, what else can you expect from someone who is in the one circle of number one mean girl herself taylor swift
Selena Gomez gave up on mean girls. Blake and Gigi, Sabrina Carpenter and Ice Spice????? Good for Selena Gomez, which was Taylor Swift only true friend ! Glad for Selena not wanting to be a part of mean girls !
"We have enough people in this world judging women for staying in these relationships." YES! This. I was in one myself for four years. . . . and also. My own mother took my abuser's side when I finally got up the courage to leave him, saying he "looked so sad" - sure, Ma, he was so "sad" that he ended up stalking me until I got a protective order against him. Covert narcissism is a hell of a drug. So which is it: bully the victim or pity the abuser? We're typically served up a cocktail of both in this day and age. The classic "can't win" force is strong in this arena. I commend this man for trying to make a movie that spoke to survivors of DV *and* to educate the general public about the gray areas that aren't often illuminated. He seems to truly understand the nuance and depth this issue demands; others involved CLEARLY did not.
He's so well spoken about the movie and in every interview he's complimenting blake contrary to her she didn't mention even ONCE. Blake us a disappointment during this press . i can understand people now that i watched almost all the interviews
Meantime Blake talks about shoes, hair products, ensured the women in the movie rallied around her and alienated him so she could talk about things that truly matter like talking about cooking, shoes, their zodiac sign etc 🤢. She has not talk at all about DV or giving him credit. She is truly disappointing and a bully!!!
Justin , I just love your passion ,your dedication, and your hard work soooo muchhh.You are so amazing and such a beautiful soul❤ Loved the movie last night...watching it again this afternoon.❤

Snap out of the parasocial illusion, for your own sake.
After all the crap they pulled on him he is still so kind about them. Not seen the movie but read the book- sadly I have seen several cases in my previous work, and justpeopleyou meet as friends. One of the key sentences that really made me think "YESSSS. HE GETS THAT MSG SO WELL!" @8.32, "The key was to not play him or think of him as a villain....these people who cause harm don't think of themselves that way." 👏👏❣️
Justin Baldoni fue el único de esa película que en las entrevistas transmitía el verdadero contenido de la realidad de la violencia de género. Un hombre muy inteligente compasivo y empatico completamente
It's really important to realise when they choose to leave or directly after, that can be the most unsafe time. So they need to do so if safe and with a lot of support.
Blake and Ryan are the classic virtue signallers. They picked the produce a movie on a sensitive subject, but they are just cold business people at the end of the day
The movie was absolutely awesome! I ❤d the movie. I was so invested in the movie that I didn’t even notice the TS song 😮Not like I was blown away by the songs that jumped out to me from the Twilight movies, ‘Flightless Bird, American mouth’, and ‘A Thousand Years’. The last one tears me up til this day. This time when I rewatch the movie I will make sure to hear for it.
Omg I had decided not to go see this movie beca6of how awful blake has been, but hes making me want to watch it just by how appreciative and grateful he is! OMG. I do sense some sadness from.how intrusive Blake was that she took so much creative liberties when he was THE ACTUAL DIRECTOR!!!!
OMG! This man is a dream. Not only he's gorgeous, but he's conscious, deep and sensitive. I hope he influences more men to be like him ❤
I came across his Insta during the pandemic. It was interesting to see an outwardly masculine man dismantle toxic masculinity.
@@johanna2690 I agree. He's such a modern man who understands modern women and knows how to relate to them. The model he's proposing is the way forward in my opinion.

How can you watch this movie if you lived through this ? Im not sure i want to be reminded what i lived through.
I lived through it with 5 children. This book and this film are a healing balm. @@thesnoopydance645
Justin is such a class act guy! I truly respect his honesty and vulnerability he brings into every project. It’s super cool to see someone’s passion transform into a project that creates conversations amongst the masses.
Justin Baldoni is handling all this ordeal with class, dignity. I am so disappointed to BL and even Jason who’s obviously taking her side. It was so wrong to promote her alcohol line and beauty line at the same time. I feel bad for Justin because the group of mean girls have excluded him but I’m sure he could handle it.
My Lord indeed he is so elevated, his actions speaks for it self. Bravo
Love a man who speaks so highly of women
This is how this movie should have been promoted. It’s a deep and complex subject and thank you Justin for understanding it so well.
Many words that he said made me tear up. Thank you for acknowledged what many women go through. I truly believe this movie will change lives forever.
Isn’t he dear, empathetic, in touch and zen. He’s being gracious about the book and its context. He’s loveable. Gives a lot of credit to Blake who’s very undeserving, stealing the movie, from having Ryan take over scene, write, edited the Final Cut, Blake did the wardrobe also which was ugly and very unattractive style. They say Blake is tone deaf. Obviously Justin is not. He’s handling everything so well.
He don't need a makeup... Such a beautiful man. Natural beauty.
Im sure like any other job in the world there can be drama when people work together. But the way he speaks about Blake is taking the high road if there was drama. People love the gossip and lots of times we only get pieces of it and run with it when we don’t know all the details. I like the way he speaks in his interviews especially that he speaks against domestic violence! Bring it to the light where it should be
He actually did justice to DV….unlike the author of the book 😭 it’s not romance, it’s trauma and real life
He’s such a gentlemen’s. A deeply caring person for humanity!❤
He tried to give her space so she could bring female perspective but she ends up taking over and kicking him out. She uses it to promote her hair brand, then promote her husband, promote her husband's movie.
She also used press coverage to promote her drink line. This woman is unbearable
I never saw the show "Jane the Virgin" so I was not familiar with Justin Baldoni's work and hadn't seen much of Blake Lively's work either. I also have not read the book that It Ends With Us. I saw the trailor of the movie at another movie and it looked interesting so I decided to go see it. Shortly before seeing it, I heard about the controversy that is surrounding the movie with it's two stars. My friend and I enjoyed the movie and thought the actors played their parts well and that the movie served the issue of DV well.
Since seeing the movie, I have seen some clips of the movie's promotion and to be honest, I felt that Ms. Lively took the wrong path in how she promoted it and Mr. Baldoni took the appropriate path in giving the seriousness that a movie about DM deserves.
After seeing this interview, I have to say that Mr. Baldoni impressed me with his intelligence, articulate manner, humility and compassion. I look forward to his future endeavors.
He was phenomenal in the movie 😍😍🥰
Team Justin
Justin, i feel so seen by your words and actions. Thank you.
Such a gracious man
She literally doesn’t deserve the compliments he is giving her
He is so sincere
Blake lively is bad mouth ing him behind his back. Mean girl personified
She bulldozed him because he is a gentleman.
Justin is beyond amazing. 🤩
You are amazing ❤this is thr first time i see a man cares for the DV survivors than a woman (blake lively )!!!!!
I adored this film. I actually knew nothing about it, had not read the book or seen a trailer, I had no expectations and wasn’t that familiar with many of the cast. But I though it was a wonderful but shocking story, so many highs and lows, acted beautifully by all involved. Sad to see there is drama behind the scenes, hopefully everyone can move past this and be super proud of the final result ❤
Eloquent, genuine and humble ❤
I love that his focus is on the women and how real it is. His time lapses make so much more sense than the book.
I love your heart, Justin! Can't wait to see and experience this powerful film. Thank you for telling stories that matter and make a difference. Many blessings bro!
Great actor, hope to see more of your movie. Please continue doing a good film.
A wonderful interview. Justin you nailed it in the complexity of the situation and the question as to why the question should be asked why are they the abuser rather than why is the abused staying, Can’t wait to see what you do next!
He is such a fine specimen. Too good to be true but here he is.
#FineSpecimen ❤
I never knew he was I anything or involved in anything since Jane the Virgin!!! Loved him on that show!!!
I honest to god believe justin isn't that morally sound. In comparision to the hollycouple, sure ,but my Unpopular opinion is why was this man going around for 2 yrs trying to make a movie out of a book that glamorizes ab*se!?! Evn with so many women raising alarm about the books impact on impressionable mind ever since. It seems he is now trying to do damage control or play silent victim ,and lucky for him both idiots blake and ryan are making it easy for him. The book is the problem in the firat place
@oceangrace90 I don't get how a book could be considered a "problem?"
❤❤
Justin Baldoni speaks so passionately about this movie and how he wants it impact men and women…but it also seems his role outside of a co-star was taken over by Blake 😕
Were you in the set? If not, don't pretend to know what went over
I agree that it does seem that way, and I love Blake Lively.
Seen interviews where she said she brought her own wardrobe pieces from her closet, her husband, and Gigi Hadids to use for the characters. A lot of the marketing I've seen is just Blake asking the cast all of the questions, and even from her living room are the interviews. She was involved a lot, as a producer should, that it overshadows the other co-stars, unfortunately. It's not her fault, though, that interviewers are focused on asking the wrong questions (seems more personal questions than about the movie). I loved the depth of this interview as it was a deep book. More of these type of interviews! He answers so eloquently.
@@lovelisali movies seem to borrow more and more tactics from reality shows. the bts seem to become more important than the actual movie, who in the end, let’s face it, most probably will be a mediocre tear jerker tv movie but with very good visuals.
It's true she and Ryan Reynolds are so over the top and annoying. I don't get why people like that annoying back and forth they do so much. It's irritating. Justin deserved a better co-star. He should've got someone new and younger.
@@lovelisali I agree with your analysis for the most part except that it is Blake's personality to take over because she is used to being around Ryan Reynolds so long that he has her walking around with a big ego like his. He's an a hole and she is too. Typical mean girl
Im always down to watch movies justin brings out and i dont know what justin does but it leaves a deep impression and the takeaway from the movie. The reason im even interested in this film/book not because of the actors but because of this director Justin baldoni
He did a great job! I just watched the movie!
I watched the movie today loved it
Now listening to the director i appreciate the movie xo much more he speaks with such deep meaning loved the movie thank you for this movie and hoping we can see more good calibre movies in the future not always searing and just sex but worthwhile movies that we can learn from
Thank you Justin
Justin you are extraordinary
How my heart sank when he mentioned he had a wife 😂
Exactly😭😭😭😭
There's a video of the proposal - it's like 30 mins it was beautiful
@@amandadunsmore1167 omg😭😭
I need to see it 🥺👉👈
@@amandadunsmore1167thank you! Need to see! ❤
Meanwhile plantation barbie refuses to say his name or acknowledge him
Haha, plantation Barbie 😂. That should catch on
He is a class act. So sorry to see Blake is disrespectful and unprofissional to him.
You did an amazing job! Your acting was spectacular!! Do not let the drama cloud how proud you should be of sharing this film with us and the message it sends us women!! I love how sensitive and romantic you are...DO NOT CHANGE !!❤
It cemented my mind to not move forward with someone I knew
Justin speaks so passionately about this movie ,some people believe in second chances after Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds plantation wedding.
Plantation wedding ....😅?
What does that have to do with this movie?
Like me😒 but this promo open my eyes
@@Any-bl6hoBlake Lively and Ryan Reynolds are not the only hosts of a Plantation wedding,Justin Beiber and wife Hailey also had their own plantation wedding.Reese Witherspoon celebrated with a plantation wedding when she was three months pregnant.
Poor guy, he is finally having a huge moment and Blake is just pooping all over it with her mean girl charades. Figures, what else can you expect from someone who is in the one circle of number one mean girl herself taylor swift
I guess you have wasted so much money to buy too many hamburgers and ice creams. It doesn't allow your brain to think clearly.
Thank you! Agreed 💯
They should have picked a much younger Lilly !!!
Selena Gomez gave up on mean girls. Blake and Gigi, Sabrina Carpenter and Ice Spice????? Good for Selena Gomez, which was Taylor Swift only true friend ! Glad for Selena not wanting to be a part of mean girls !
What a director! Bravo and actor bravo,bravo!!!!!, 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏
"We have enough people in this world judging women for staying in these relationships." YES! This. I was in one myself for four years.
. . . and also. My own mother took my abuser's side when I finally got up the courage to leave him, saying he "looked so sad" - sure, Ma, he was so "sad" that he ended up stalking me until I got a protective order against him. Covert narcissism is a hell of a drug.
So which is it: bully the victim or pity the abuser? We're typically served up a cocktail of both in this day and age. The classic "can't win" force is strong in this arena.
I commend this man for trying to make a movie that spoke to survivors of DV *and* to educate the general public about the gray areas that aren't often illuminated. He seems to truly understand the nuance and depth this issue demands; others involved CLEARLY did not.
He's so well spoken about the movie and in every interview he's complimenting blake contrary to her she didn't mention even ONCE. Blake us a disappointment during this press . i can understand people now that i watched almost all the interviews
Meantime Blake talks about shoes, hair products, ensured the women in the movie rallied around her and alienated him so she could talk about things that truly matter like talking about cooking, shoes, their zodiac sign etc 🤢. She has not talk at all about DV or giving him credit. She is truly disappointing and a bully!!!
Can't wait to see this interview!
Justin , I just love your passion ,your dedication, and your hard work soooo muchhh.You are so amazing and such a beautiful soul❤ Loved the movie last night...watching it again this afternoon.❤
I honest to god believe justin isn't that morally sound. In comparision to the hollycouple, sure ,but my Unpopular opinion is why was this man going around for 2 yrs trying to make a movie out of a book that glamorizes ab*se!?!

Snap out of the parasocial illusion, for your own sake.
It was a beautiful movie bringing focus on abusive relationships and the consequences it brings to it. He did a fantastic job!!
He's NOT an idiot. He HAD to get out of the way or his entire career would be black listed!!!
After all the crap they pulled on him he is still so kind about them. Not seen the movie but read the book- sadly I have seen several cases in my previous work, and justpeopleyou meet as friends. One of the key sentences that really made me think "YESSSS. HE GETS THAT MSG SO WELL!"
@8.32, "The key was to not play him or think of him as a villain....these people who cause harm don't think of themselves that way." 👏👏❣️
Thought provoking interview
Loved this interview !
Justin Baldoni fue el único de esa película que en las entrevistas transmitía el verdadero contenido de la realidad de la violencia de género. Un hombre muy inteligente compasivo y empatico completamente
Great movie❤ Justin is perfect in the movie ❤
❤ Don’t ever doubt yourself. U can’t fake this ❤️
Justin was perfect. I can’t see anyone else be Ryle.
Kudos and bravo to Justin Baldoni :)
Just saw the movie. It was great story telling. Much too close to home for me, as I did the very same in the end. Perfect title… “It Ends With Us”.💖💖💖
It's really important to realise when they choose to leave or directly after, that can be the most unsafe time. So they need to do so if safe and with a lot of support.
As a newborn photographer, I love that he found a 14 day old 😂
Lady Gaga would have been a good casting, an actress that can be vulnerable
Abigail Cowen is my perfect cast
Right. Blake can't act
I think he played the part perfect.
Blake and Ryan are the classic virtue signallers. They picked the produce a movie on a sensitive subject, but they are just cold business people at the end of the day
He is a GREAT ACTOR
Love him!
The movie was absolutely awesome! I ❤d the movie.
I was so invested in the movie that I didn’t even notice the TS song 😮Not like I was blown away by the songs that jumped out to me from the Twilight movies, ‘Flightless Bird, American mouth’, and ‘A Thousand Years’. The last one tears me up til this day. This time when I rewatch the movie I will make sure to hear for it.
Omg I had decided not to go see this movie beca6of how awful blake has been, but hes making me want to watch it just by how appreciative and grateful he is! OMG. I do sense some sadness from.how intrusive Blake was that she took so much creative liberties when he was THE ACTUAL DIRECTOR!!!!
a cool react to act with such a baby Blake... really loved the novel, but never thought that there would be a star feuds like this... wish em luck❤
I must say, if I was co lead in a project, and my colleague brought in the spouse to "collaborate" ... nope.
Great interview what a classy Man ❤️
Why is he praising her so much if she's not doing the slightest effort to be professional and praise him even once!
