Chris Brown Sues Warner Bros. for $500 Million Over Docuseries
Chris Brown is taking legal action.
Three months after the release of the documentary Chris Brown: A History of Violence, the musician filed a lawsuit in the Superior Court of Los Angeles Jan. 21 against Ample LLC, Warner Bros. and producers involved in the film’s production, in response to their “defamatory documentary.”
“Despite being notified of the false and misleading narrative accusing Mr. Brown of the heinous acts, including sexual assault and evidence tampering,” read a Jan. 21 statement Brown posted to Instagram, “allegations that had been discredited in court and dismissed as baseless—the defendants released the documentary on October 27, 2024 without regard for Mr. Brown, prioritizing profits over journalistic integrity.”
E! News has reached out to Warner Bros. and Ample but has not heard back.
In the film, an accuser referred to as Jane Doe alleged the R&B star of drugging and raping her in 2020. And after she sued him for $20 million dollars in 2022, the claims were, according to the lawsuit obtained by E!, “discredited, dismissed by the courts, or outright fabricated.”
