A series about Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs and his family is no longer in development at Hulu following recent sexual assault allegations made against the rapper, our sister site Variety reports.
via Variety:
The show, which was being developed with the working title “Diddy+7,” was being produced by James Corden’s production company Fulwell 73.
The first suit against Combs was filed on Nov. 16 by Cassandra Ventura aka Cassie, Combs’ former long-time partner, who alleged that Combs had raped and beat her over a period of a decade. Though Combs denied any wrongdoing through a lawyer, the two parties settled the suit one day later.
Less than a week later, Joi Dickerson-Neal alleged in a suit that Combs “drugged, sexually assaulted and abused” her and that she was the victim of “revenge porn” created and distributed by the rapper. A third lawsuit came from a Jane Doe who claims that Combs and R&B singer Aaron Hall took turns raping her and her friends at Hall’s apartment sometime between 1990 and 1991. Then another Jane Doe came forward, claiming that Combs, Bad Boy Entertainment president Harve Pierre and a third man raped her when she was 17.
On Dec. 6, the day the fourth lawsuit was filed, Combs posted on Instagram, saying, “ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. For the last couple of weeks, I have sat silently and watched people try to assassinate my character, destroy my reputation and my legacy. 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.”
