Brandon Sklenar is showing his support for his castmate.
In a lengthy document filed last week with the California Civil Rights Department and obtained by E! News, Blake Lively accused her "It Ends With Us" costar and director Justin Baldoni of sexual harassment and spearheading a smear campaign as a retaliation for raising concerns about his behavior on set of the film.
Now, Sklenar — who starred as Atlas Corrigan in the Colleen Hoover film adaptation alongside Lively (who played protagonist Lily Bloom) and Baldoni (Ryle Kincaid) — is breaking his silence on the accusations.
In a message posted to his Instagram Story Dec. 23, the 1923 actor shared a link to a New York Times article that includes the entirety of Lively's legal complaint alongside a message, saying, "For the love of god read this."
And to finish off his supportive note, Sklenar tagged Lively's social media handle and added a heart emoji next to it.
