Netflix is producing a docuseries from Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson about charges of sex trafficking and racketeering as well as sexual assault and violent abuse allegations against Sean “Diddy” Combs.

Alexandria Stapleton directs the project, which is currently in production.

“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 Cent and Stapleton said in an exclusive statement to Variety. “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.”

The G-Unit would be producing the docuseries in early December, at which point Combs had been sued by 4 women, beginning with ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura, whose lawsuit opened the floodgates against him.

At the time, 50 Cent shared a clip on X that showed Bad Boy Records rapper Mark Curry alleging that Combs would spike bottles of champagne at his parties before women drank from them. Proceeds from the documentary, the rapper-producer said, will be used to support sexual assault victims.

Last week, Combs was arrested and charged on 3 counts: racketeering conspiracy; sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion; and transportation to engage in prostitution. He pleaded not guilty, but remains in custody; he was denied bail at his appeal hearing.

Combs has also been hit with several more lawsuits. In February, his former employee alleged that Combs made unwanted sexual advances and forced him to hire and engage in relations with sex workers in 2023. Jones himself was later mentioned in an April lawsuit in which Grace O’Marcaigh alleged that, while working as a steward on a yacht, Combs’ son, Christian “King” Combs, forced her to perform oral sex on him and that Combs paid the yacht’s captain to keep the matter under wraps.

In May, model Crystal McKinney alleged that Combs drugged and sexually assaulted her in 2003, and earlier this month, former Danity Kane singer Dawn Richard sued Sean “Diddy” Combs for verbal abuse, assault, sexual battery and intentional infliction of emotional distress.

In May, CNN released a video that showed Combs grabbing, shoving and kicking Cassie in a hotel. Days later, he took “full responsibility” for his actions in the video.

That was his first and only time admitting to any wrongdoing. Before then, he had denied everything, posting a statement to social media in December that read “ENOUGH IS ENOUGH,” Combs said in a statement posted to social media in December. “For the last couple of weeks, I have sat silently and watched people try to assassinate my character, destroy my reputation and my legacy,” he said. “Sickening allegations have been made against me by individuals looking for a quick payday. Let me be absolutely clear: I did not do any of the awful things being alleged. I will fight for my name, my family and for the truth.” The post no longer appears on his Instagram account, but remains on X.

After Homeland Security raided his Los Angeles and Miami properties in March, he posted on Instagram the video for his 1998 song “Victory,” in which he runs from police, with the caption “Bad Boy for life.”
