Pop Culture & Art January 07, 2025

The behind-the-scenes drama between It Ends With Us co-stars Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni has taken an unexpected twist, with fans speculating a connection to Ryan Reynolds’ Deadpool & Wolverine. A TikTok theory suggests that the character “Nicepool” in the Marvel film might be Reynolds’ subtle jab at Baldoni.

The theory gained traction on social media after fans pointed out similarities between Nicepool and Baldoni. The character, portrayed as a self-proclaimed feminist with a man bun, makes controversial remarks about Ladypool, played by Lively. Fans speculate that these details might reflect the ongoing legal and personal tensions between Lively and Baldoni. Additionally, Nicepool’s demise at the hands of Ladypool has been interpreted as a symbolic jab at Baldoni.

Some fans have also linked a scene in Deadpool & Wolverine, where Deadpool requests an intimacy coordinator, to Lively’s lawsuit claims that such precautions were absent during the filming of It Ends With Us. These connections have fueled discussions, though others argue that the parallels are coincidental and lack credible evidence.

The ongoing legal feud between Lively and Baldoni adds context to these fan theories. Lively’s lawsuit accuses Baldoni of making inappropriate remarks about her weight shortly after she gave birth, while Baldoni’s countersuit alleges interference by Lively’s husband, Ryan Reynolds. Baldoni’s lawyer has also confirmed intentions to release text messages between the co-stars and pursue further legal action.

While the Deadpool & Wolverine fan theory remains speculative, it highlights the intersection of entertainment narratives and real-life celebrity drama, reflecting how fans often interpret media through the lens of ongoing disputes. As the legal developments unfold, these theories serve as a reminder of how fiction and reality frequently intertwine in the world of Hollywood.
