Bryan Freedman weighed in on fan speculation that the Nicepool character was based on the "It Ends With Us" actor-director.

Justin Baldoni's lawyer Bryan Freedman alleged Ryan Reynolds based 'Nicepool' off his client in the film 'Deadpool & Wolverine.'

Deadpool & Wolverine' fans are wondering whether the movie's character Nicepool — portrayed by Ryan Reynolds — is meant to be a shade at 'It Ends with Us' director Justin Baldoni in the wake of Blake Lively's Dec.

In his first public appearance since his wife Blake Lively sued her co-star Justin Baldoni for sexual harassment, Ryan Reynolds seemed to subtly address the matter by discussing the “different set of standards” women are held to.

The public legal battle stemmed from the sets of It Ends With Us. Lively plays Lily Bloom in the film while Baldoni, who directed, stars as Ryle Kincaid, her abusive partner.

The legal team of actor and director Justin Baldoni has suggested they will highlight what they describe as a 'pattern of bullying' by actor Blake Lively in their countersuit after she accused Baldoni's team of launching 'attacks' following the lawsuit.

Justin Baldoni's lawyer has claimed there is 'evidence of Blake Lively's pattern of bullying' as their bitter case continues.
