Quiet on Set Network Announces Chris Brown Documentary and It’s Coming Soon

While all the attention is focused on the allegations against Sean Combs, aka Diddy, the network behind the explosive series Quiet on Set is turning its attention to Chris Brown with a new documentary in the works.

Diddy is embroiled in a legal battle following multiple lawsuits and assault allegations against him, with his longtime rival 50 Cent producing a documentary about the case for Netflix.

As the story unfolds in the public eye, it reignites debates about power dynamics and abuse within the entertainment industry.

Amid this renewed attention, Investigation Discovery (ID) – the network behind Quiet on Set, about the toxic world of children’s television – is dropping Chris Brown: A History of Violence.

Released October 27 at 9 p.m. ET/PT, the new true crime documentary will launch ID’s third annual “No Excuse for Abuse” campaign as part of Domestic Violence Awareness Month and national campaign partnership NO MORE.

Chris Brown: A History of Violence will chart the singer’s rise to fame and how he maintains his superstar status despite a history of domestic violence and legal battles.

In the trailer released yesterday (September 30), a new accuser, whose identity is hidden, comes forward. Brown first made headlines for abuse in 2009, when he assaulted his then-girlfriend, Rihanna, and was sentenced to five years of probation.

A number of legal battles followed, with ex-girlfriend Karrueche Tran obtaining a five-year restraining order against him in 2017.

According to the official synopsis, “Chris Brown: A History of Violence” traces Chris Brown’s past to his troubled childhood, explores the lasting impact of the cycle of abuse and asks the question: how could a man with such violent behavior can public records maintain his superstar status?

“With layered expert and cultural commentary, the documentary provides thoughtful reflections on each survivor’s experience and the psychological destruction in the wake of their abuse.”

As part of ID’s campaign, the documentary premiere will be followed by a discussion with domestic violence experts and advocates, led by The View co-host Sunny Hostin.

In a statement, Hostin said: “Throughout my career, it has always been my priority to be a strong advocate for women and children.

“Domestic violence is a very close and personal issue to me as I reflect on my past as a prosecutor in these types of cases and my role as a mother and public figure whose actions inform and help shape the next generation.

“This is a widespread epidemic that knows no socioeconomic boundaries, which is why I am committed to expanding and continuing this crucial conversation.

“The more we know, the better we can contribute to change as a society. »

There were many comments about the Chris Brown documentary following its announcement, with one writing on X/Twitter: “It’s finally time for a lot of celebrities to be exposed for all the crazy things they’ve done do.”

Another said: “They should also look at how these violent men continue to be celebrated in “Hollywood culture” and maintain a fan base, even if they are shit!

Along with this headline, ID also confirmed that she is hosting her own Diddy documentary centered around the allegations against the rapper. The currently untitled project does not yet have a release date.
