Ryan Reynolds BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Ryan Reynolds has been making headlines recently, particularly due to the ongoing legal battle between his wife, Blake Lively, and her "It Ends With Us" co-star and director, Justin Baldoni. Here's a rundown of the significant developments and public appearances involving Ryan Reynolds in the past few days:
Ryan Reynolds made a notable appearance at the "SNL 50: The Anniversary Special" on February 16, 2025, alongside his wife Blake Lively. During a segment where alums Tina Fey and Amy Poehler took questions from the audience, Reynolds was called on and seemingly alluded to the lawsuits between Lively and Baldoni. When asked how he was doing, Reynolds jokingly replied, "Great... why, what have you heard?" This subtle reference to the controversy highlighted the ongoing dispute[5].
This public appearance follows Reynolds' first public outing since the lawsuit began, which was at the 2025 National Board Of Review Gala on January 7. Reynolds honored the film "Wicked," which was named the best movie of 2024, and his appearance marked a return to the public eye amidst the legal battle[2].
The legal dispute itself centers around Lively's allegations of sexual harassment against Baldoni on the set of "It Ends With Us." Lively filed a complaint in December 2024, accusing Baldoni and the studio of embarking on a "multi-tiered plan" to damage her reputation. Baldoni has denied these allegations, calling them "completely false, outrageous and intentionally salacious." The lawsuits are currently scheduled to begin trial in March 2026[1][5].
In other news, Reynolds has been busy with his business ventures. His production and marketing company, Maximum Effort, has been responsible for various ads promoting his movies and other big-name clients. Additionally, his involvement with Aviation American Gin, which he co-owned before its acquisition by Diageo for $610 million, has been a significant source of his wealth[3].
While Reynolds' recent public appearances have been overshadowed by the legal controversy, his business activities and entrepreneurial ventures continue to be a major part of his career. The ongoing legal battle and its implications for his wife's career and reputation will likely remain a significant focus in the coming months.
