Justin Baldoni’s team say they have plans to launch a website to bolster his accusations againstBlake Livelyconcerning behind-the-scenes conflict onIt Ends With Us.

After Baldoni’s attorney Bryan Freedman released avideo depicting footage of the two actorson the set of the hit 2024 movie — in an effort to refute some of Lively’s claims made in her Dec. 20sexual harassment complaintagainst her director-costar — his legal team said in a statement shared with PEOPLE, “Justin Baldoni and team has nothing to hide and this once more proves this.”

Baldoni and the otherIt Ends With Usassociates who Lively is suing “have the right to defend themselves with the truth,” continues the statement. “This is what we will be continuing to show with the upcoming website containing all correspondence as well as relevant videos that quash her claims.”

In Lively’s complaint was the accusation that during a “slow dance scene,” Baldoni “leaned forward and slowly dragged his lips from her ear and down her neck as he said, ‘it smells so good.’” In the video, Lively quips that she’s “probably getting spray tan on” her costar, who laughs and says, “It smells good.”

Baldoni’s lawsuit against Lively and her collaborators alleges that theGossip Girlalum implied that Baldoni should get plastic surgery to fix his nose. In the video, both can be seen making jokes about his nose, including a joke Lively makes referencing plastic surgery.

The website intended to “quash her claims” will purportedly have more such footage from the set of theColleen Hooveradaptation.

The following day, Freedman said in a statement on behalf of Baldoni, “We arereleasing all of the evidencewhich will show a pattern of bullying and threats to take over”It Ends with Us. “None of this will come as a surprise because consistent with her past behavior Blake Lively used other people to communicate those threats and bully her way to get whatever she wanted. We have all the receipts and more.”
