Blake Lively eying Oscars for role in 'It Ends With Us': Details revealed

Blake Lively, who shares four children with husband Ryan Reynolds, starred in It Ends With Us alongside the director of the project Justin Baldoni.

The 38-year-old actress slammed her colleague with as sexual harassment case after the release of romantic movie.

However, new documents revealed that the Savages actress was offered huge compensation in case she gets an Oscar for her role as Lilly Bloom.

The contract highlighted “several bonuses” for the actress in the movie adaptation of Colleen Hoover’s novel.

Noticeably, it came with a special condition that the internal matters will be settled through confidential arbitration instead of filing case in open court.

The documents pointed out that the Gossip Girl alum will receive “$100,000” for becoming an Academy Award nominee and “$200,000” in case she wins.

Similarly, the Betty Buzz owner was offered to get “$75,000” for Golden Globe nomination, “$100,000” for win; “$50,000” if she earns SAG Award nomination and “$75,000” for win.

She had the option to appoint two nannies and her team flying private jet for the shooting of the drama.

However, the deal couldn’t realise as Blake shockingly did not sign it before the onset of the legal crossfire with the director in 2024.

Why was Justin Baldoni’s case dismissed?

Although the Jane the Virgin actor filed a retaliatory lawsuit against the actress and her husband Ryan, the $400 case was dismissed for lack of evidence.
