Now that Sean “Diddy” Combs has been tried, convicted on two counts, and imprisoned in New Jersey, the documentary series from his nemesis Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson is set for release.
Netflix announced Tuesday the long-awaited project titled Sean Combs: The Reckoning will arrive on the platform Dec. 2.
The streamer released an 18-second teaser with a narrator saying: “You can’t continue to hurt people and nothing ever happens. It’s just a matter of time.”
The four-part series will focus on sexual abuse allegations against Combs, which have been spreading through the music industry for decades.

According to the official description, the docuseries offers a “staggering examination of the media mogul, music legend, and convicted offender.” Details on the interview subjects will be released later.
Executive producers include 50 Cent, Stacy Scripter, David Karabinas, Ariel Brozell, Brad Bernstein, and Emmy winner Alexandria Stapleton, who also directed the series.
“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,” 50 Cent said in a statement.
In May 2024, 50 Cent announced on social media Netflix had secured the rights to the project after “a bidding war.”
The “In Da Club” rapper told his fans the series from his G-Unit Film and Television company would be called “Diddy Do It?” The reason for the name change is unclear.
Fiddy and Diddy have a sordid history. They both dated a woman named Daphne Joy Cervantes Narvaez, aka, “Daphne Joy.” 50 Cent has a 13-year-old son with the fitness influencer and model.
Meanwhile, music producer Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones alleged in a $30 million civil lawsuit against Combs in 2024, that Daphne Joy and other women “were paid a monthly fee to work as Mr. Combs’ sex workers.”
After details of the lawsuit went viral, 50 Cent taunted Daphne Joy on social media and said he planned to seek sole custody of their son.
She denied the “sex worker” claim in a since-deleted post [which was captured by several websites], and called 50 Cent an absentee dad, her “oppressor,” and made several shocking allegations against the G-Unit founder, which can be read here.
Combs, 56, has been accused of rape and or sexual assault by men and women, in at least 50 civil lawsuits.
He was convicted on July 2 under the Mann Act for transporting people across state lines for the purpose of prostitution.
Jurors found him not guilty of the most serious racketeering and sex trafficking charges.
Several of the mogul’s former employees, federal agents, hotel workers, and Combs’ ex-girlfriends Casandra “Cassie” Ventura and a woman using the pseudonym “Jane Doe” testified that he has a history of violence, intimidation, paying people off, and an obsession with baby oil-drenched group sex.
On Oct. 3, a federal judge sentenced Combs to 50 months in prison, or 4 years and 2 months, for his conviction on the two prostitution-related counts. He was credited with time served for the 13 months he spent in a Brooklyn jail following his arrest in September 2024.
Combs is currently serving his sentence at the Federal Correctional Institution at Fort Dix in New Jersey. The Bad Boy Records founder is tentatively scheduled for release on June 4, 2028, according to the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) website.
His release date was recently delayed by one month after the mogul allegedly violated rules inside the low-security prison, by reportedly drinking homemade alcohol and taking part in a three-way phone call, which the BOP prohibits.
The embattled Bad Boy mogul is sure to dominate headlines again, when the Netflix docuseries debuts on Dec. 2.
