Justin Baldoni Beefing With Marvel Over Ryan Reynolds Nicepool Character

Justin Baldoni‘s recent dispute with Blake Lively has now extended to Marvel, with Baldoni requesting the superhero company to provide documents related to the characters portrayed by Ryan Reynolds in the “Deadpool & Wolverine” movies.

In response to Marvel’s motion to quash his subpoena, Baldoni has doubled down on his claims that the character of Nicepool in the Deadpool movie is a mocking depiction of himself.

The portrayal of Nicepool in the movie involves a scene where the character compliments Ladypool, played by Lively, after giving birth, and makes a remark about identifying as a feminist.

A specific line in the movie where Reynolds exclaims about the need for an intimacy coordinator has raised concerns for Baldoni, linking it to allegations made against him by Lively regarding harassment and body shaming.

Baldoni believes that the character of Nicepool and the dialogues in the movie are directly related to his ongoing legal battles with Blake and Ryan, seeking to uncover potential evidence of malice in the Marvel documents.

Ryan Reynolds is pushing back against Baldoni’s lawsuit, claiming that the actor is overly sensitive and that the dispute over Nicepool is unfounded.
