Justin Baldoni's lawyer, Bryan Freedman, has sent legal requests to Marvel and Disney, alleging that Ryan Reynolds' portrayal of 'Nicepool' in 'Deadpool 2' was intended to mock Baldoni and trivialize the issue of sexual harassment.
Bryan Freedman, the lawyer representing Justin Baldoni, has sent a legal hold letter to both Marvel and Disney, requesting the preservation of all documents related to Reynolds' portrayal of 'Nicepool,' a character in the film ' Deadpool 2 .' The letter, citing 'anticipated claims' against Reynolds, focuses on a deleted scene depicting Reynolds as 'Nicepool,' a variant of Deadpool who sports a man bun and delivers a line seemingly referencing Baldoni's advocacy for women's empowerment.
The scene resurfaced recently and Freedman believes it was intended to mock Baldoni's work and potentially trivialize a serious situation. Freedman's letter demands the preservation of all documents relating to Baldoni, the development of the 'Nicepool' character, and any communication related to the creation and filming of scenes featuring 'Nicepool.' It also requests information regarding any attempts to mock, harass, ridicule, intimidate, or bully Baldoni through the character. Freedman argues that making light of sexual harassment is inappropriate and that Reynolds' portrayal of 'Nicepool' crossed a line. He emphasizes the seriousness of sexual harassment and states that it should never be treated as a joke. 'If somebody is seriously sexually harassed, you don’t make fun of it. It’s a serious issue,' Freedman said.
