00:00Yikes! Taylor Swift could be forced into Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively deposition.

00:05The tension surrounding It Ends With Us has erupted into a $400 million lawsuit

00:10filed by Justin Baldoni against Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds and their publicist

00:15and surprisingly, Taylor Swift's name is now tangled in the dispute.

00:19Taylor and Blake have famously been close friends for years,

00:22making the pop star's sudden involvement even more shocking.

00:26What began as creative disagreements before the film's debut

00:28has turned into one of the most talked-about Hollywood feuds,

00:32with every new revelation fueling intense public fascination and online chatter.

00:37Viral reports quickly suggested that Taylor would be deposed,

00:41but her attorney Doug Baldridge firmly stated she did not agree to testify

00:44and has no material role in the conflict.

00:47He explained they only learned about the deposition three days earlier

00:51and stressed that Swift has no first-hand knowledge relevant to the case.

00:55Still, he acknowledged that if the court requires her presence,

00:58her schedule could allow for a deposition during the week of October 20th,

01:02making it clear that any appearance would be purely out of legal obligation,

01:06not voluntary participation.

01:09In his lengthy 179-page complaint,

01:12Justin recounts that during pre-production,

01:14Blake wanted to take a pass at rewriting the pivotal scene where Lily meets Ryle.

01:19Though initially reluctant,

01:21Justin eventually reviewed her version,

01:22but disagreed with certain changes,

01:25describing his stance as only exceedingly mild resistance.

01:29According to him,

01:30Blake then stopped communicating and claimed that his reaction upset both Ryan Reynolds and Taylor Swift,

01:35heightening the tension.

01:37These allegations added a dramatic layer to an already fraught creative process,

01:41suggesting that even outside friends and supporters influenced how the disagreement unfolded.

01:46Justin further alleges he was invited to a meeting at Ryan and Blake's apartment,

01:50where Taylor Swift was also present.

01:52He claims Ryan and Taylor openly praised Blake's rewritten script,

01:56making it unmistakably clear through what he calls the subtext that he should accept her version.

02:02Later,

02:02Blake allegedly texted Justin describing Ryan and Taylor as

02:05embarrassingly effusive and her most trusted partners.

02:10In a playful but pointed follow-up,

02:12she compared herself to Khaleesi from Game of Thrones,

02:15boasting of dragons who protect those she fights for,

02:19implying powerful allies standing firmly behind her vision for the film.
