A judge dismissed Justin Baldoni’s $400 million defamation lawsuit against Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds, calling it a "sham." The lawsuit stemmed from a dispute over the film "It Ends With Us," which Baldoni directed and co-starred in with Lively. Lively's lawyers hailed the ruling as a "total victory and a complete vindication." The judge granted motions to dismiss by Lively, Reynolds, their publicist, and the New York Times. Baldoni can file an amended complaint on certain allegations by June 23.
