Initially, the dispute involved Lively suing Baldoni, alleging a toxic work environment and sexual harassment during the film’s production. Baldoni responded with a $400 million defamation countersuit, escalating the legal drama significantly.

While not a direct party to the lawsuits, Swift is now implicated due to accusations of lying about her role in the casting process. A resurfaced interview clip featuring Baldoni reveals that Swift reportedly had input in the casting of Isabela Ferrer as the younger version of Lively’s character. In the interview, Baldoni stated, “I was casting and had actually shown [Isabela’s] tape to Blake and Taylor. They were both like, ‘Yes, her!’ and that’s a true story.”

I think Blake is using her name to justify her own decisions.” Another wrote: “I suspect Blake has been overstating how involved Taylor actually is.” However, other comments were accusatory like, “Taylor, why lie when Baldoni literally has proof?”

Swift has remained silent on the controversy. With the legal case ongoing, the potential for further revelations exists. Meanwhile, Swift is reportedly focusing on her music projects, while Lively is maintaining a low profile. Baldoni, on the other hand, is actively defending himself against Lively’s claims.
