If you recall, It Ends With Us features a similar story.

Blake's allegations also include Baldoni's social campaign formed to damage her reputation. According to the lawsuit, tensions were high while they were filming It Ends With Us. A comprehensive team meeting took place, which included Lively's husband, actor Ryan Reynolds. Blake's demands were, "no more showing nude videos or images of women to Blake," "no more mention of Baldoni's alleged past pornography addiction," "no more discussions about sexual conquests in front of Blake and others," "no further mentions of the cast and crew's genitalia," "no more inquiries about Blake's weight," "no mention of Blake's deceased father," and importantly, "no more inclusion of sex scenes, oral sex, or on-camera climaxing by Lively."

The studio approved all the demands, and then Lively signed the dotted line. However, Baldoni and his team subsequently engaged in a social manipulation campaign intended to damage her reputation. Several texts from Baldoni's publicist to the studio's publicist, in which Baldoni stated he "wants to feel like [Ms. Lively] can be buried" and "We can't write we will destroy her," were included in the lawsuit. Baldoni's team and legal assistance have denied all the charges, but shortly after, the talent management company severed all ties with the actor.
