The recent high‑profile P Diddy documentary that most people are talking about is “Sean Combs: The Reckoning” , which was directed by Alexandria Stapleton and produced (and driven creatively) by Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson through his G‑Unit Film & Television banner.

Who actually “made” the doc?

When people ask “who made the P Diddy documentary,” they usually mean this Netflix series:

  • Title: “Sean Combs: The Reckoning”
  • Director (the filmmaker who made it): Alexandria Stapleton, an Emmy‑winning documentarian.
  • Executive producer / driving force: Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, whose company G‑Unit Film & Television produced the series.

In other words, Stapleton is the main creative director , while 50 Cent is the high‑profile producer who pushed the project into existence.

Other recent Diddy documentaries

There are also a few other projects in the same “Diddy doc” conversation:

  • “Diddy: The Making of a Bad Boy” – a feature‑length doc that premiered on Peacock in early 2025 and is framed as an exposé on Combs, produced with input from former colleagues and insiders.
  • “P Diddy: The Rise and Fall” – a 2025 documentary special focusing on his career arc and downfall.

So if someone on forums says “the Diddy documentary,” they’re most often referring to the Netflix docuseries produced by 50 Cent and directed by Alexandria Stapleton , but there are now several different Diddy documentaries in circulation.
