Investigation Discovery's upcoming documentary "Chris Brown: A History of Violence" premieres October 27, 2024, examining the controversial life of the Grammy-winning artist through the lens of alleged abuse and violence.

Produced by Ample Entertainment as part of ID's No Excuse for Abuse initiative, the documentary features interviews with former associates and violence prevention experts, offering an in-depth look at the pattern of controversies surrounding Brown's career.

The film explores several incidents, including the highly publicized 2009 assault of Rihanna that resulted in Brown's felony conviction. It also highlights newer allegations, including a "Jane Doe" who claims Brown assaulted her at a 2020 yacht party hosted by Sean "Diddy" Combs, leading to a $20 million lawsuit that was later dismissed.

Sunny Hostin, former prosecutor and The View co-host, will lead a post-premiere discussion focusing on legal implications and available resources for survivors of intimate partner violence.

While Brown's representatives deny the allegations as "malicious and false," the documentary raises important questions about accountability in the entertainment industry and society's response to abuse allegations against high-profile figures.

The film aims to amplify survivors' voices and contribute to broader conversations about domestic violence awareness and prevention, aligning with Investigation Discovery's mission to advocate for societal change.
