Overview

  • Taylor Swift was subpoenaed on Friday in connection to Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni's ongoing legal dispute over the 2024 film 'It Ends With Us.'
  • Swift's representatives issued a statement denying her involvement in the film's production, asserting her only connection was licensing her song 'My Tears Ricochet.'
  • The statement also accused Baldoni's legal team of exploiting Swift's name to generate tabloid attention rather than focusing on the case's facts.
  • Court filings from Baldoni's team allege that Swift and Ryan Reynolds influenced script decisions, a claim Swift's representatives firmly deny.
  • Blake Lively has previously described Swift as being emotionally supportive throughout the film's production, while Baldoni and actor Isabela Ferrer have claimed she participated in casting decisions, creating conflicting narratives.
