Justin Baldoni's ‘It Ends With Us' body-double reveals what Blake Lively was actually like on ‘tense' set
Justin Baldoni's 'It Ends With Us' body double is sharing insight into his experience working on the film. Thomas Canestraro alleged that there was a 'tense' atmosphere on the set of Baldoni and Blake Lively's 2024 movie. 'There was some discomfort from everybody,' he claimed to the Daily Mail in an interview published Sunday. 11 Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively filming 'It Ends With Us' in New Jersey in January 2024.

GC Images Canestraro said that he was supposed to be on set in New Jersey for only five days, but due to production issues, he was there for two weeks. The stunt double further claimed that Lively — who is suing Baldoni for alleged sexual harassment — appeared 'closed off' during the final weeks of filming in early 2024. He explained that he 'had an extremely easy time' working with Lively, 37, on 2018's 'A Simple Favor,' but he noticed that her behavior changed when they shot 'It Ends With Us.' 11 Thomas Canestraro attends the 'American Ultra' premiere in LA in 2015.

A source close to Lively told TMZ that it shouldn't be surprising she was 'closed off' given the sexual harassment allegations she made against Baldoni, 41. 11 Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively filming 'It Ends With Us' on Jan. 11, 2024.

The Post has reached out to reps for Baldoni and Lively for comment. 11 Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively in 'It Ends With Us.' ©Sony Pictures/Courtesy Everett Collection 'It Ends With Us,' which came out last summer, and is based on a novel by Colleen Hoover, is about a domestic violence relationship between Baldoni and Lively's characters. In December, Lively filed a lawsuit alleging that Baldoni sexually harassed her during filming. She also accused him of 'a coordinated effort to destroy her reputation' after the movie was released. The 'Café Society' actress said the alleged smear campaign caused harm to her business and led to her family experiencing 'severe emotional distress.' 11 Blake Lively filming 'It Ends With Us' in New Jersey.

In her lawsuit, Lively alleged Baldoni improvised kissing scenes and wanted to add sex scenes to the film. In his countersuit, Baldoni alleged that Lively agreed to shoot their intimate scenes without meeting with an intimacy coordinator beforehand. The 'Jane the Virgin' actor also released raw footage of a dancing scene wherein Lively claimed that Baldoni made her feel uncomfortable. Baldoni denied Lively's claims and accused the 'Gossip Girl' alum of trying to take over the direction of the scene. 11 Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively arrive to 'Another Simple Favor' screening in NYC on April 27. GC Images Taylor Swift was subpoenaed as a witness by Baldoni's legal team amid the court battle, but his side dropped the subpoena in a bombshell move late last month. A spokesperson for Lively told The Post they were 'pleased that Justin Baldoni and the Wayfarer Parties have withdrawn their harassing subpoenas to Taylor Swift and her law firm.' 'We supported the efforts of Taylor's team to quash these inappropriate subpoenas directed to her counsel,' they told The Post, 'and we will continue to stand up for any third party who is unjustly harassed or threatened in the process.' 'The Baldoni and Wayfarer team have tried to put Taylor Swift, a woman who has been an inspiration for tens of millions across the globe, at the center of this case since day one,' the spokesperson added. 11 Blake Lively, Justin Baldoni in 'It Ends With Us.' ©Sony Pictures/Courtesy Everett Collection In response to the original subpoena filing, a representative for Swift, 35, said, 'Taylor Swift never set foot on the set of this movie, she was not involved in any casting or creative decisions, she did not score the film, she never saw an edit or made any notes on the film, she did not even see 'It Ends With Us' until weeks after its public release, and was traveling around the globe during 2023 and 2024 headlining the biggest tour in history.' Lively and Baldoni's ongoing legal battle is heading to trial in March 2026. Lively's lawyer confirmed she will testify.

Kristen Stewart and Dylan Meyer wed after 6 years of dating: A timeline of their relationship
It's wedding bells for Kristen Stewart: The Spencer star is officially married to her longtime partner, Dylan Meyer. Stewart and her screenwriter fiancée wed in a private outdoor ceremony on April 20, according to TMZ. The intimate wedding comes less than a week after the pair reportedly obtained their marriage license at a Los Angeles courthouse. The couple, per People, 'exchanged vows at home in front of an intimate group of loved ones' that included Pretty Little Liars alum Ashley Benson and her husband, Brandon Davis. Stewart and Meyer first met on set in 2013, but didn't start dating until 2019. Since debuting their romance on Instagram in 2019, they've kept their relationship relatively low-key. Stewart has, however, previously opened up about certain aspects of their relationship: She confirmed that she and Meyer had gotten engaged in 2021, and, in 2024, revealed that they were considering starting a family together. Here, we look back at the couple's early beginnings and their road to the altar. Stewart casually meets Meyer, the daughter of Oscar-nominated screenwriter Nicholas Meyer, on the set of American Ultra in 2013. However, it will be another six years before they actually get together. Stewart and Meyer spark relationship rumors after they're photographed kissing on a street curb in New York City in August 2019. The intimate moment is captured just one month after the Twilight star was spotted kissing her ex-girlfriend, Stella Maxwell, in Italy. Meyer makes her relationship with Stewart Instagram official two months later, in October, when she posts a photo of them kissing in a photobooth. During a November 2019 appearance on The Howard Stern Show, Stewart reveals that she and Meyer had reunited at a mutual friend's birthday party. Recalling her first impression of Meyer, Stewart says, 'She rocked up at a friend's birthday party and I was like, 'Where have you been and why have I not known you?'' 'The first time I told her I love her it was really late and we were in some shitty bar, and her friends were there or whatever and they walked out, and I was just like, 'Oh man, I'm so f***ing in love with you.' Like, done,' the Love Lies Bleeding star tells Stern of falling in love with Meyer. 'It wasn't like 'a thing,' and it also was so obvious.' While Stewart previously told Stern that she would 'absolutely' propose to her screenwriter partner, it's Meyer who actually pops the question. 'We're marrying, we're totally gonna do it,' Stewart tells Stern in a November 2021 interview. 'I wanted to be proposed to, so I think I very distinctly carved out what I wanted and she nailed it. It was really cute, she did very well. We're marrying, it's happening.' Stewart discusses her wedding plans during a January 2022 appearance on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert. She admits that she's 'so unceremonial' but floats the idea of having a 'big party or something.' 'We might just go do it this weekend or something, I don't know, and then, like, just hang out with everyone afterwards,' she says. 'I just want to do it, you know? I'm not a good planner. I can't make plans for dinner.' Two months later, in March 2022, the pair attend an Oscars party hosted by the Hollywood Reporter, marking their first public appearance as a couple. They make their red carpet debut less than a week later at the Critics Choice Awards. In her February 2024 cover story for Rolling Stone, Stewart reveals that she wants to start a family with Meyer at some point, despite being afraid of childbirth. 'I don't know what my family's going to look like, but there's no f***ing way that I don't start acquiring kids,' the 35-year-old actress says. 'I really want that to happen.' While on the podcast Not Skinny But Not Fat in March 2024, Stewart reiterates her desire to have kids with Meyer, adding that they've even frozen their eggs to keep their options open. 'We've done really annoying things like freeze our eggs and stuff,' Stewart says. 'So if we want to, we can.' Stewart and Meyer marry on April 20. While neither of them have confirmed the news, TMZ is the first to report that their nuptials were exchanged among family and friends. The ceremony takes place at Casita Del Campo, a restaurant in the Los Feliz neighborhood of Los Angeles. Stewart had previously mentioned wanting to have their wedding in L.A. 'I want to stay home. I want to be in L.A. so everyone can come,' Stewart tells Stern in November 2021. 'I want it to be pretty chill. I don't want anyone walking anyone down any aisles. We're just going to like, stand and do vows and f***ing party after. It's kind of just a great excuse to get together and say 'I love you' in front of all your friends.'
