Scarlett Johansson has broken her silence on the It Ends With Us drama involving her ex-husband Ryan Reynolds.

Ryan’s wife Blake Lively, 37, is currently embroiled in a massive legal feud with Justin Baldoni, whose production company Wayfarer Studios is co-financing Scarlett’s directorial debut Eleanor The Great.

Johansson, 40, was asked about Baldoni, 41, during an interview with Vanity Fair, who noted she let ‘out a loud, knowing laugh’ at the mention of the Jane The Virgin star – a ‘standard reaction’ in light of ‘how public the feud has become’, the publication wrote.

The Her actress has not yet met Baldoni as he was engrossed in the production of It Ends With Us, however she noted his company was ‘super supportive’ throughout the making of her movie.

‘They were super supportive throughout the process,’ Johansson told the magazine. ‘But yeah, such weird timing.’

Johansson, who was married to Reynolds, 48, from 2008 to 2011, will be officially releasing the film at the Cannes Film Festival on May 20.

The movie stars June Squibb, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Jessica Hecht, and Erin Kellyman and follows a 91-year-old Florida woman who forges a friendship with a 19-year-old student in New York City.

While the film will soon be making it’s premiere at the prestigious Cannes Film Festival, earlier this month it was revealed that Baldoni will not be present at the premiere.

DailyMail.com learned that ‘Baldoni will not be attending the Eleanore the Great premiere at Cannes.

‘Wayfarer Studios will continue to champion this film, and will have a presence at the festival to support the cast and filmmakers.’

This comes amid concerns that Johansson’s feature directorial debut could be ‘overshadowed’ by the drama involving her ex-husband Reynolds and Lively — who has been on the press tour for her new movie Another Simple Favor.

Even though his film is in competition, Baldoni is choosing to step back to as he and his production company have been locked in a contentious legal battle with Reynolds and Lively over her and Baldoni’s movie It Ends With Us.

Lively has accused Baldoni and Wayfarer CEO Jamey Heath of sexual harassment, and additionally alleged she was subject to a targeted smear campaign in the run-up to the release of It Ends With Us.

Baldoni then launched a $400 million defamation lawsuit against Lively, Reynolds and the New York Times, which reported her first claim.

Wayfarer and Baldoni were dropped by their agency amid the mounting drama, which sources close to him say cost him ‘three jobs and hundreds of millions of dollars,’ via the Hollywood Reporter.

Late last month, famed attorney Lisa Bloom has exclusively told DailyMail.com how the swirling publicity around the feud could potentially splash back on Johansson’s movie.

‘The success or failure of this Baldoni produced film will be highly relevant in court,’ Bloom observed of Johansson’s new project.

‘If it flops, Baldoni will blame the Blake Lively lawsuit and point to the failure as an example of the millions of dollars in damages he is seeking,’ she noted.

‘If it succeeds, his theory that he just can’t make it in Hollywood because of Blake Lively will be obliterated,’ Bloom added.

‘And expect ScarJo and other big names on the film to be subpoenaed to testify at the Lively-Baldoni trial as to the money he makes from the film, and whether the case really cost him as much as he says.’

The attorney, whose mother is the vaunted feminist lawyer Gloria Allred, said: ‘I also suspect the film’s release will be overshadowed by press questions about the Lively-Baldoni legal fight, which slogs on.’
