Baldoni's lawyers have submitted an updated lawsuit of 224 pages and have posted all the evidence - complemented by a 168-page timeline - on a newly launched website, writes Variety.

In the lawsuit, Baldoni launches a renewed attack on The New York Times and brings new accusations against Blake Lively's husband, actor Ryan Reynolds. Baldoni claims that Reynolds created the character Nicepool in "Deadpool & Wolverine" to mock and bully him.

The conflict between Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni started when she accused her opponent and director of having sexually harassed her during the filming of "It Ends with Us" and then, with the help of a PR firm, launched a smear campaign against Lively.

The New York Times investigated the case and published text messages that, according to the article, show how the smear campaign was planned.

Baldoni, in turn, has sued The New York Times for libel and claims that the newspaper collaborated with Lively to smear him. Baldoni has also sued Lively and Ryan Reynolds for libel.
