Blake Lively fails in bid to keep Taylor Swift's texts from Justin Baldoni
A judge has denied Blake Lively's motion for a protective order to keep her communications with Taylor Swift regarding It Ends With Us out of Justin Baldoni's hands. In new documents obtained by People magazine, Judge Lewis J Liman denied the order on Wednesday. Baldoni's legal team previously subpoenaed Swift in the ongoing It Ends With Us lawsuit, although the subpoena was later withdrawn. Baldoni's defence then continued to allegedly "demand" access to records of Lively's communications with Swift. The new documents suggest that Baldoni's legal team alleges they have not received access to Swift's communications with Lively, which they now deem necessary to the lawsuit.

Sarah Jessica Parker reveals ‘unpleasant' part of playing Carrie on Sex and the City: ‘Sobbing'
Sarah Jessica Parker 'wasn't prepared for public commentary' about her physical appearance when Sex and the City debuted in 1998. 'That was really unpleasant at times when people would have opinions — not about the work,' the actress, 60, told podcaster Alex Cooper on Wednesday's episode of Call Her Daddy. While Parker would 'sometimes' get frustrated with viewers' 'misunderstanding' of her character, Carrie Bradshaw, she said it was 'the personal stuff' that really got to her, reports Page Six. 'At that time, I thought I was a fairly confident person,' she shared, explaining that 'it really comes into question and is tested when you're filleted, in a way, when you're opened up.' Despite the pain it caused, Parker said, 'I know you know this: We're better for those kinds of experiences, but not all of us are good at it right away.' When Cooper, 30, argued, 'It doesn't mean it doesn't hurt,' Parker agreed, adding, 'Up to that point, there was no chatter about me. … There was just my work.' When asked point-blank about some of the 'harder comments' she had to hear, the Hocus Pocus star replied, 'I think just discussions of my physical person. Like, stuff that I couldn't change and wouldn't change and had never considered changing — even still after hearing something that was like, 'What? Somebody would say that?'' To Parker, the 'chatter' about her face and body 'didn't feel like it was actually a conversation.' 'I didn't feel like I could sit in a room and someone would say to me, 'You're really unattractive,'' she said. 'And then I could say, 'Wow. First of all, that's hard to hear, but second of all, why do you seem angry about it? Why do you feel it's necessary to say it, to comment?'' The mother of three, who has been married to actor Matthew Broderick since 1997, recalled one specific time when 'a magazine said something really mean' about how she looks. 'It was like a kick in the rubber parts,' she admitted. 'I was just like, 'Why is this a problem? Why is this deserving of your time and why do you seem to delight in saying it?'' Parker confessed that the remark, which she did not repeat, left her 'sobbing because it felt so purposeful.' She believed that was 'the only time [she] really cried about' negative comments about her physical appearance. The Emmy Award winner, who made sure to note that social media has changed the landscape of how the public shares its opinion, wondered whether her critics would 'say it to [her] face.'

New Lois Lane Rachel Brosnahan slams actors for complaining about superhero movies after Dakota Johnson's snide remarks
Rachel Brosnahan is fighting for the superhero genre. The actress, who plays Lois Lane in the new 'Superman' film, called out actors who complain about their own superhero movies while chatting with Amanda Seyfried for an Interview Magazine piece published on Monday. 'That's the thing about these movies: You can feel it when people are doing it with passion and grace and curiosity,' said Seyfried, 39, reports the New York Post. Brosnahan, 34, replied, 'I don't know why people say yes only to then turn around and complain about it. Look, I don't want to s – t on other actors, but there was a minute where it was cool to not like superhero movies and to look back on projects like this and pooh-pooh them.' 'Do it or don't do it, and then stand by it,' Brosnahan added. Seyfried, who has never been in a superhero movie, praised James Gunn's upcoming Superman remake. 'I honestly don't think you should call it a superhero movie ever again, because it isn't just that, and I think people are going to see that,' said the Mean Girls star. 'It's really important to have this kind superhero, this guy who's just trying to do his best,' Seyfried added. Brosnahan, in agreement, told the fellow actress: 'The cool thing about it is that it's what you expect, and then there's more. Of course, there's great fighting and stunts and big monsters and good and evil.' The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel star is portraying Clark Kent's colleague-turned-love interest in Superman. David Corenswet stars as the Man of Steel, alongside Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor, Ed Gathegi as Mister Terrific, Anthony Carrigan as Metamorpho, Isabela Merced as Hawkgirl and Nathan Fillion as Green Lantern. As Brosnahan mentioned, many actors have starred in superhero flicks and then turned on the films after their releases. Dakota Johnson famously bashed her 2024 Marvel movie Madame Web after it flopped at the box office. 'I had never done anything like it before. I probably will never do anything like it again because I don't make sense in that world,' she told Bustle last year. 'And I know that now. But sometimes in this industry, you sign on to something, and it's one thing and then as you're making it, it becomes a completely different thing, and you're like, 'Wait, what?' ' Johnson added. Christian Bale also criticised the process of making 2022's Thor: Love and Thunder, in which he played the villain Gorr the God Butcher. 'I mean, the definition of it is monotony,' the Oscar winner, 51, told GQ of green-screen acting. 'You've got good people. You've got other actors who are far more experienced at it than me. Can you differentiate one day from the next? No. Absolutely not.' But, like Brosnahan, other actors have defended the superhero genre, including Man of Steel and Thor: Love and Thunder star Russell Crowe. 'You're telling me you signed up for a Marvel movie, and some f**king universe for cartoon characters … and you didn't get enough pathos?' Crowe, 61, said last year in response to Johnson's negative Madame Web comments. 'These are jobs,' Crowe added. 'Here's your role, play the role. If you're expecting this to be some kind of life-changing event, I just think you're here for the wrong reasons.'
