It has been a little more than a week since Sean Combs: The Reckoning arrived on Netflix. Reports now claim that the music mogul is already preparing a response. Media Take Out states exclusively that Diddy and his relatives are allegedly putting together a large defamation lawsuit directed at the streaming service because of the 50 Cent produced docuseries.
“One purpose of this documentary was to destroy his reputation. This is not journalism, it is entertainment,” one insider claims. The report says Diddy has brought on one of the most influential law firms in the country and that he intends to pursue at least one billion dollars in damages. The source also claims that the requested amount may increase if Netflix does not retract specific allegations.
This new development is not unexpected. Diddy’s team has already spoken clearly about how they feel regarding the project.
“Netflix’s so called ‘documentary’ is a shameful hit piece. Today’s GMA teaser confirms that Netflix relied on stolen footage that was never authorized for release,” they stated in comments shared with The Hollywood Reporter earlier this month. “As Netflix and CEO Ted Sarandos know, Mr. Combs has been gathering footage since he was nineteen in order to tell his own story in his own voice. It is completely unfair and unlawful for Netflix to take that material and use it without permission.”
50 Cent Diddy Documentary
“It is just as astonishing that Netflix turned over creative authority to Curtis ‘50 Cent’ Jackson, a longtime rival with a personal motive who has devoted far too many years to speaking poorly about Mr. Combs,” Diddy’s representatives continued. “Putting the legal concerns aside, this is also a violation of personal trust. Mr. Combs has held deep respect for Ted Sarandos and has admired the legacy of Clarence Avant, the father in law of Sarandos who has passed away.”
“For Netflix to hand his life story to someone who has openly criticized him for so long feels unnecessary and deeply personal,” they finished. “At the very least, he believed he would be treated fairly by people he admired.”
