Alexandria Stapleton will direct the docu-series, which is currently in production. 50 Cent and Stapleton shared a statement saying, "This is a story with significant human impact. It is a complex narrative spanning decades, not just the headlines or clips seen so far," in a statement to Variety. They continued, "We remain steadfast in our commitment to give a voice to the voiceless and to present authentic and nuanced perspectives. 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 Cent will executive produce the docu-series alongside Stapleton through his G-Unit Film & Television banner. The project was announced in December 2023, following sexual assault allegations from four different women against Combs.
What will the Diddy documentary on Netflix be about?
Sean 'Diddy' Combs was arrested in the lobby of a Manhattan hotel on September 16 after a grand jury indicted him following sexual assault lawsuits. By August 2024, he had faced accusations of abusive behavior in at least nine lawsuits. On November 2023, Combs came under heavy scrutiny when his ex-girlfriend, Casandra Ventura AKA Cassie, filed a federal lawsuit accusing him of years of sexual and physical abuse. Cassie, a singer who met him at 19 and once signed to his label, claimed he controlled every aspect of her life, including her home, clothes, medical records, and car.
The Netflix documentary will focus on the serious allegations of sex trafficking, racketeering, sexual assault, and violent abuse against the 54-year-old. The rapper-producer suggested that proceeds from the same will be used to support sexual assault victims.
Combs has pleaded not guilty and remains in police custody after a New York federal judge denied his bail request.

A post shared by an Instagram account named Memezar about 50 Cent producing the documentary, in particular, has sent the internet into chaos as fans can't stop commenting their opinions on the development.
One user wrote, "Opening shot is just 50 in the interview chair laughing for a full minute, then cut to opening credits," while another fan wrote, "I hope 50 went beyond measures and got interviews with people who had stayed with him… If Justin speaks out then all of them are going down." "They should have an entire episode dedicated to baby oil," quipped an Instagram user.
One fan commented, "He hasn't had this much fun since daring Mayweather to read a page of a Harry Potter book," while another fan wrote, "They didn’t need to announce this. We already knew it was coming as well as the one specific individual who would make it all possible." "Hopefully, Diddy is locked up life, and they just throw away the key he's absolutely done, and it saddens me that there are kids that don't know any better and saying free p Diddy I work at a school and I heard this from some of my students kids have the internet and somehow getting dumber," suggested one fan.
