Chris Brown has launched a $500 million defamation lawsuit against Warner Bros. Discovery, Ample Entertainment, and others linked to the docuseries “Chris Brown: A History of Violence.”

The series, which was shown on Investigation Discovery in October 2024, included serious accusations against him, such as an allegation that he raped a woman in 2020.

According to legal documents, Brown, 35, claims that the docuseries producers knowingly spread false and defamatory information, even when they had evidence that proved the accusations were wrong.

The lawsuit also mentions that the woman, referred to as Jane Doe, who accused Brown of sexual assault, had her claims discredited several times, and her $20 million lawsuit was dismissed in 2022 because it was not pursued.

Brown’s legal team states that the producers failed to consider key facts, leading to serious damage to his reputation, career, and business. He is seeking $500 million in damages and plans to donate some of it to victims of sexual abuse if he wins the case.

Brown asserts his innocence and disputes the claims made by Jane Doe, who was shown in the documentary with her identity concealed. This lawsuit reflects the increasing friction between public figures and media representations, especially in cases involving delicate allegations.
