Taylor Swift could potentially be drawn into a legal battle between her close friend Blake Lively and actor-director Justin Baldoni. While she hasn't been officially subpoenaed yet, Baldoni’s legal team has suggested that Swift might be called as a witness due to her alleged involvement in private conversations related to the case.According to recent reports, Taylor Swift and Hugh Jackman are also expected to be subpoenaed as witnesses in the intensifying legal dispute involving Lively and her husband, Ryan Reynolds.
Taylor Swift and Hugh Jackman named as possible witnesses in escalating Hollywood legal drama
The lawsuit stems from Blake Lively’s accusations against Justin Baldoni during the production of the film It Ends With Us, in which both actors were involved. Lively claims that Baldoni sexually harassed her and attempted to damage her professional reputation.
Baldoni, however, has denied the allegations and has filed a countersuit for defamation, accusing Lively of making false claims to harm his image. Hugh Jackman, a close friend of Reynolds and Lively, is reportedly being considered as a witness due to his proximity to the couple and possible knowledge of private conversations relevant to the case.
Taylor Swift’s name came into the spotlight after leaked messages showed that Lively reportedly referred to Swift and Reynolds as her "dragons" a nod to Game of Thrones that symbolized their fierce loyalty and unwavering support, much like powerful guardians ready to defend her.
According to the texts, Swift and Reynolds may have helped Lively navigate creative disagreements with Baldoni, potentially influencing some of the key moments that led to the current conflict.
Given this connection, Baldoni’s legal team has suggested that Swift’s testimony might provide insights into Lively’s claims and intentions. However, Swift has no official ties to the film and is said to be uncomfortable with the idea of becoming involved in the dispute. Sources close to her report that she has been distancing herself from the controversy and wants to avoid any formal participation in the legal proceedings.
The situation has also created tension behind the scenes, with Baldoni’s team accusing Lively’s legal side of using underhanded tactics and filing the case quietly to manipulate public perception. The case has become increasingly public as more private messages and footage are released, with both sides trying to protect their reputations.
The trial is scheduled for March 2026, and it remains unclear whether Swift will actually be subpoenaed or choose to speak publicly on the matter. For now, she appears to be keeping her distance, though the legal teams may push for her involvement if they believe her testimony is crucial.
