‘Good luck to the director’

Blake Lively was roasted on social media by Justin Baldoni fans after she was announced to star in and produce the forthcoming rom-com “The Survival List.”

Thursday’s casting announcement came amid Lively and Baldoni’s heated legal dispute over their time working on the 2024 film “It Ends With Us” — prompting some to already call for a boycott of her new project.

“Good luck to the director dealing with her drama,” one netizen commented on Deadline’s Instagram post, referencing Baldoni’s previous directorial role alongside the actress.

“I thought ‘the survival list’ was the IMDBs of other actors she’s been in movies with,” another user quipped.

Meanwhile, another person made a pointed comment regarding Lively’s estrangement from former BFF Taylor Swift, who allowed her song “My Tears Ricochet” to be used in “It Ends With Us.”

“This movie is not getting Taylor’s music,” they predicted.

However, the “A Simple Favor” star, 37, did receive support from some fans in the comments.

“You go girl!! You have a lot of fans and believers!” one Instagram user wrote. “And anyone else who wants to come after me you can just take a hike because I have a right to like her and believe her as much as you have the right to dislike her and not believe her.”

Per Deadline, Lively’s forthcoming project will follow highbrow reality TV producer Annie (Lively), who gets assigned to a new show hosted by famous survival expert Chopper Lane against her wishes.

“However, when a shipwreck strands them on a deserted island, Annie discovers Chopper is a fraud and knows nothing about survival, leaving her in charge of figuring out how to keep them alive. Forced to work together, they begin to discover an unlikely chemistry,” the description reads.

The new movie marks Lively’s first project since she launched her lawsuit against Baldoni, his publicity team and his Wayfarer Studios in December 2024 — accusing the actor/director of sexual harassment and attempting to damage her reputation.

Baldoni, 41, has strongly denied Lively’s allegations and, in response to her lawsuit, filed a $400 million suit against her and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, for extortion and defamation.

Baldoni accused the “Gossip Girl” alum of making threats to pressure him into relinquishing creative control of the film.

However, a judge threw out Baldoni’s suit in June. Their case has been scheduled to go to trial in March 2026.

Meanwhile, Lively has previously admitted that she can overstep boundaries as an actress on film sets.

“When I went into meetings, I would just seem like I’m just there to be the actor and ready to get the gig. I wouldn’t reveal that I actually need to have authorship in order to feel fulfilled,” she revealed in a resurfaced interview from the Forbes Power Women’s Summit in 2022.

“So I think that for them, sometimes that might have felt like a rug pulled because you’re like, you’re trying to assert yourself into something that we didn’t hire you to do.”
