09/25/2024 50 Cent’s Documentary Surrounding Diddy’s Abuse Allegations Is Coming to Netflix
We remain steadfast in our commitment to give a voice to the voiceless,” 50 and director Alexandria Stapleton said.
50 Cent’s upcoming documentary surrounding Diddy’s history of alleged sexual abuse is coming to Netflix.
Per Variety, the doc produced by the G-Unit mogul is currently in production and will call the streaming giant home, with Alexandria Stapleton directing. The untitled work will center around Sean Combs’ sexual assault and abuse allegations, and also tie in his recent federal charges for racketeering and sex trafficking.
“This is a story with significant human impact. It is a complex narrative spanning decades, not just the headlines or clips seen so far,” 50 and Stapleton relayed in a joint statement to Variety on Wednesday (Sept. 25). “We remain steadfast in our commitment to give a voice to the voiceless and to present authentic and nuanced perspectives.”
They continued: “While the allegations are disturbing, we urge all to remember that Sean Combs’ story is not the full story of hip-hop and its culture. We aim to ensure that individual actions do not overshadow the culture’s broader contributions.”

Per Variety, the doc produced by the G-Unit mogul is currently in production and will call the streaming giant home, with Alexandria Stapleton directing. The untitled work will center around Sean Combs’ sexual assault and abuse allegations, and also tie in his recent federal charges for racketeering and sex trafficking.
“This is a story with significant human impact.

They continued: “While the allegations are disturbing, we urge all to remember that Sean Combs’ story is not the full story of hip-hop and its culture. We aim to ensure that individual actions do not overshadow the culture’s broader contributions.”
50’s G-Unit Film & Television division will executive produce the documentary, while Stapleton is on board to helm the project and also produce through her company House of Nonfiction.
The documentary does not yet have a release date time frame or details regarding how many parts it will include.
50 originally announced plans for the doc about Diddy in December following a bombshell lawsuit filed by the Bad Boy CEO’s ex Cassie a month prior.
A spokesperson for 50 Cent confirmed to Billboard in December that proceeds received by 50’s G-Unit Film & Television division from the project will go toward helping victims of sexual assault and rape.
50’s been relentless in his trolling of Diddy for months even prior to the music mogul being indicted. “I been telling y’all about all this weird s–t, I don’t do NO puffy party’s. you didn’t believe me but I bet you believe me now,” he wrote on social media Wednesday alongside his announcement of the doc coming to Netflix.
He didn’t stop there when jabbing his longtime rival. The Queens legend posted a Photoshopped picture on Instagram of baby oil, which he rebranded to a bottle of “Diddy Oil.” Investigators reportedly seized more than 1,000 bottles of baby oil and lubricant when raiding Diddy’s L.A. and Miami homes earlier this year, according to the Associated Press.
Sean Combs was arrested on Sept. 17 in NYC and has since been denied bond twice. Diddy will remain in prison until his trial. He has pleaded not guilty to the charges.
