Hugh Jackman unexpectedly criticizes Ryan Reynolds amid lawsuit with Justin Baldoni: “I didn’t expect my friend to be like this”
Just 30 minutes ago, actor Hugh Jackman caused a stir online when he posted a post on his personal page, expressing deep disappointment in his longtime friend Ryan Reynolds – who is currently embroiled in a tense lawsuit with director and actor Justin Baldoni.
In a short but meaningful post, Jackman wrote: “I never expected my friend to be like this. We used to laugh together, work together, and I always thought he was a man of principles. But what’s happening now forces me to speak up…”
Although Jackman did not mention the details of the incident, many people believe that this criticism is directly related to the lawsuit between Ryan Reynolds and Justin Baldoni – the director famous for touching films such as Five Feet Apart and Clouds. According to sources, Reynolds is being sued by Baldoni for breaching a co-production agreement on a film project that the two had discussed. Baldoni accused Reynolds of unilaterally “stealing the idea” and working on the project with another team without notice.
This lawsuit is causing a lot of controversy in Hollywood, especially since Reynolds and Baldoni are both positive public figures. However, the fact that Hugh Jackman – who is known to be Reynolds’ closest friend – has also spoken out, making things more complicated.
On social media, the reactions from fans are divided. One side feels disappointed with Reynolds if the allegations are true, thinking that Jackman has a good reason to publicly “turn his back”. The other side is skeptical about the authenticity of the post, thinking that this could be a misunderstanding or even a media stunt.
Some long-time followers of the relationship between Jackman and Reynolds expressed sadness: “Their long-standing friendship is a rare thing in showbiz. If Hugh has to speak up like this, it must not be simple.”
Currently, Ryan Reynolds has not given any official response to Hugh Jackman’s post or the lawsuit with Justin Baldoni. Meanwhile, Baldoni’s representative only confirmed that the lawsuit is in the legal process and refused to comment further.
Is the famous friendship between Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds really broken? And what really happened between Reynolds and Justin Baldoni? Fans are holding their breath waiting for the next developments.
