Oprah Winfrey Splits With Russell Simmons Accuser Documentary, Ending Plan For It To Go To Apple TV+
next month, centers around a former music executive who grapples with whether to go public with her story of assault and abuse by a notable figure in the music industry; that person allegedly being Russell Simmons. The film is billed as taking a sharp look at race, gender, class and intersectionality, and the toll assaults take on their victims and society at large.“I have decided that I will no longer be executive producer on and it will not air on Apple TV+.
We’ve reached out to the Sundance Film Festival, but I hear from sources that the movie still plans to premiere in Park City, Utah later this month on Jan. 25. I understand that Winfrey’s departure from the project stemmed from creative differences. Under her Harpo Productions deal with AppleTV+, it is my understanding that she has the authority to decide what gets placed on the streamer from her pipeline.
The Sundance press site describes the doc as following music exec Drew Dixon “whose career and personal life have been deeply affected by the abuse she faced from the men she admired in the industry she loves…as she grapples with her decision to become one of the first women of color to come forward as part of the #MeToo movement.” Dixon was the producer of hit records by 2Pac, Method Man, and Mary J. Blige.
