Amid the wave of headlines made by Blake Lively's newly released lawsuit against her It Ends With Us co-star and director Justin Baldoni over claims of sexual misconduct and an attempt to "destroy her reputation," her husband Ryan Reynolds is breaking his silence.
The star, 48, was named in the lawsuit as well, as a part of a meeting conducted between Blake, 37, Justin, 40, and other members of the movie's production team and crew concerning allegations of sexual misconduct on set by the Jane the Virgin star.
The Canadian-American actor was also a factor in the narrative surrounding the apparent feud between the movie's two leads due to his own influence on its production.
While many of the movie's cast members and even Colleen Hoover have spoken out in support of Blake, Ryan is turning his attention toward garnering donations for one of their charitable drives.
The star previously revealed his association with the foundation SickKids, which raises funds to support the health and wellbeing of children by facilitating charitable donations to children's hospitals.
He shared a video that was made to garner support for SickKids, which saw him put back on the Deadpool suit once more and be joined by one of his three daughters with Blake, also in a Deadpool suit. Ryan and Blake share daughters James, 10, Inez, eight, and Betty, five, plus son Olin, one.
Also making a cameo in the video is the original Wonder Woman, Lynda Carter, and the actor posted a message of gratitude to his social media on December 23, his first appearance since his wife's lawsuit was made public.

Justin himself has yet to comment on the allegations that have surfaced against him, although his lawyer responded to the lawsuit by calling the claims "false, outrageous and intentionally salacious with an intent to publicly hurt."
