Netflix Sets Dec. 2 Premiere for 50 Cent–Produced ‘Sean Combs: The Reckoning’

The four-part investigation foregrounds new interviews and unseen materials during Combs’ 50‑month federal incarceration.

Overview

  • Netflix confirmed four one-hour episodes directed by Alexandria Stapleton, with executive producers Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, Stapleton, Stacy Scripter, David Karabinas, Ariel Brozell and Brad Bernstein, produced by House of Nonfiction, G‑Unit Film & Television and Texas Crew Productions.
  • A brief teaser features former Bad Boy artist Mark Curry saying, “You can’t continue to keep hurting people and nothing ever happens,” signaling survivor-focused testimony.
  • The series promises “explosive, never-before-seen materials” and exclusive interviews to probe Combs’ rise with Bad Boy and the allegations that intensified after Cassie Ventura’s 2023 lawsuit.
  • Combs was convicted in July on two Mann Act counts, sentenced in October to 50 months, and is incarcerated at FCI Fort Dix with an expected 2028 release as he pursues appeals.
  • Jackson, a longtime rival of Combs, has publicly said proceeds will go to sexual-assault victims, a claim not independently confirmed by Netflix.
