Justin Baldoni’s bid to bring Pac-Man to the big screen may be in peril. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the actor’s legal feud with his It Ends With Us co-star Blake Lively has strained his relationship with talent agency WME. Baldoni’s production company Wayfarer, which was spearheading the project, relied heavily on WME to package the film. Sources close to Baldoni told THR the actor has “lost three jobs and hundreds of millions of dollars” since Lively accused him of sexual harassment on the set of their film and a post-release smear campaign. Baldoni countersued Lively and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, for defamation and civil extortion. In the latest development to the long-running saga, TMZ released a voice recording of Baldoni apologizing to Lively for being “a very flawed man” after a tense meeting over a scene rewrite.
