Actress Blake Lively and actor and director Justin Baldoni have reached a settlement resolving their legal dispute over the production of the film “It Ends With Us,” bringing an end to the high-profile case shortly before it was set to go to trial.

In a joint statement shared Monday, the parties said: “Raising awareness, and making a meaningful impact in the lives of domestic violence survivors—and all survivors—is a goal that we stand behind. It is our sincere hope that this brings closure and allows all involved to move forward constructively and in peace, including a respectful environment online.”
