The heated legal battle between Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively has sparked some strong opinions. One notable voice in this drama is Joe Rogan.  He has taken a clear stance on the matter.  He believes that the power couple, Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds, are using the Me Too movement to their advantage.

Rogan's comments came during a recent episode of his popular podcast, "The Joe Rogan Experience. " He described Baldoni as a "really sweet, nice guy. "  He accused Lively and Reynolds of trying to take control of the movie and its franchise.  He believes that Baldoni is fighting a strong legal battle.  He is suing The New York Times.  He has a solid case, according to Rogan.

Rogan also pointed out that Lively had invited Baldoni into her dressing room while she was breastfeeding.  He mentioned that there were text messages between them.  He suggested that they never expected anyone to reveal these messages.  He thinks that people are scared to speak up because of the influence of Reynolds and Lively.

The dispute revolves around the movie "It Ends with Us, " which was released last summer.  The film stars Lively as Lily Bloom.  She reconnects with an old boyfriend while in a troubled marriage with a violent doctor, played by Baldoni, who also directed the film.  In December, Lively sued Baldoni.  She accused him of sexual harassment and a smear campaign.  Baldoni responded with a $400 million countersuit.  He accused Lively and Reynolds of defamation.  He also sued The New York Times for $250 million over their coverage of Lively's claims.

The legal battle is set to go before a judge next year.  The ongoing drama has affected the publicity for Lively's next film, "Another Simple Favor. "  In January, the director of the film, Paul Feig, dismissed rumors that the movie had been shelved due to a feud between Lively and her co-star, Anna Kendrick.  He confirmed that the movie is finished and will be released soon.

The legal feud has brought attention to the complexities of the Me Too movement.  It has also highlighted the power dynamics in Hollywood.  The outcome of this battle could set a precedent for future cases.  It will be interesting to see how this drama unfolds.
