Blake Lively’s legal team issued their first statement after Justin Baldoni released behind-the-scenes footage from the set of It Ends With Us.
On Tuesday, Baldoni’s attorney Bryan Freedman shared a video in response to Blake’s claims, which was obtained by TMZ.
In the viral footage, 40-year-old Baldoni and 37-year-old Lively are seen filming a dialogue-free scene from their hit movie.
Lively’s legal team told PEOPLE that “every frame of the released footage corroborates, to the letter,” the details Lively included in her lawsuit about that scene.
In her lawsuit, Lively accused Baldoni of displaying “disturbing” and “unprofessional” behavior on the film’s set, which led to a “hostile work environment” and caused “grief, fear, trauma, and extreme anxiety.”
Lively further stated that during a “slow dance scene,” Baldoni “leaned forward and slowly dragged his lips from her ear down her neck as he said, ‘It smells so good.’”
The new statement from the legal team read, “Justin Baldoni and his lawyer may hope that this latest stunt will get ahead of the damaging evidence against him, but the video itself is damning.”
Last week, Baldoni filed a $400 million lawsuit against Lively, Ryan Reynolds, and their publicist for defamation, extortion, and more.
