50 Cent teased a documentary surrounding Diddy’s fall and allegations against him of sexual abuse for well over a year, and Netflix announced on Tuesday (Nov. 25) that the four-part docuseries is coming to the streaming giant on Dec. 2.
“I’ve been committed to real storytelling for years through G-Unit Film and Television,” 50 said in a statement. “I’m grateful to everyone who came forward and trusted us with their stories, and proud to have Alexandria Stapleton as the director on the project to bring this important story to the screen.”
The G-Unit mogul is an executive producer on Sean Combs: The Reckoning, while Alexandria Stapleton sits in the director’s chair.
The Reckoning will explore the sexual assault and abuse allegations against Diddy, along with his federal conviction on prostitution charges. Former associates, friends, artists and employees have come forward to participate in the explosive docuseries, detailing the world that hid below the Bad Boy empire.
“Being a woman in the industry, and going through the #MeToo movement — watching giants in music and film go on trial, and to know what their outcomes were … When Cassie dropped her lawsuit, I just thought this could go a million different directions,” director Stapleton said in a statement. “I wondered how she had the confidence to go out there against a mogul like Sean Combs. As a filmmaker, I instantly knew it was a stress test of whether we’ve changed as a culture, as far as being able to process allegations like this in a fair way.”
Stapleton continued: “This isn’t just about the story of Sean Combs or the story of Cassie, or the story of any of the victims, or the allegations against him, or the trial. Ultimately, this story is a mirror [reflecting us] as the public, and what we are saying when we put our celebrities on such a high pedestal. I hope [this documentary] is a wake-up call for how we idolize people, and to understand that everybody is a human being.”
50 Cent and Diddy have a tumultuous relationship. The longstanding feud found 50 continuously antagonizing Combs on social media as Diddy’s empire began to crumble, starting with Cassie’s bombshell sexual abuse lawsuit filed against Diddy in 2023, which was quickly settled.
The trolling from 50 Cent didn’t stop when Diddy was arrested on sex trafficking allegations by federal agents in September 2024. The year-long prosecution came to a close in October when Combs was sentenced to 50 months in prison for violating federal prostitution laws.
50 posted the first poster for The Reckoning docuseries on Tuesday, which sees a desolate Combs with his face in his palm. “They said I was capping, what happened?” he wrote.
50 Cent announced plans for a documentary surrounding Diddy last year and The Reckoning found a home at Netflix in September 2024.
