On Wednesday (September 25), Variety reported that 50 Cent’s long-discussed bragging documentary series has officially entered production at Netflix. In a statement shared with the publication, “50” director Alexander Stapleton said the upcoming documentary will cover more than just the recent indictments and lawsuits against the disgraced tycoon. Instead, they said doctors would explore the years leading up to the indictment.
“This is a story with profound human consequences,” they wrote in a joint statement. “This is a complex narrative that spans decades, and is more than just the headlines or clips seen so far. We We remain deeply committed to giving voice to the voiceless and presenting authentic and nuanced perspectives.

“Coming soon! Haha,” he wrote.
