Former television host Oprah Winfrey recently announced that she was cutting ties with the yet-untitled documentary, which is set to premiere at the Sundance Film Festival later this January.

When first announced in December, the documentary was billed as “a profound examination of race, gender, class and intersectionality, and the toll assaults take on their victims and society at large,” with a particular focus on 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.”

The official Sundance description recently revealed that the project will primarily follow executive Drew Dixon, who accused Def Jam Recordings co-founder and veteran producer Russell Simmons of rape and sexual misconduct., although the producer has since repeatedly denied all the allegations. Last December, the veteran musician called out Winfrey’s involvement in the upcoming documentary in a lengthy open letter on Instagram.

The post featured a photograph of the former TV host interviewing Simmons for his 2014 book “Success Through Stillness,” with the Def Jam Recordings co-founder writing that he found it “so troubling that you choose me to single out in your recent documentary.” “I have already admitted to being a playboy more sleeping with and putting myself in more compromising situations than almost any man I know,” he added, claiming however he “ha[s] never been violent or forced [him]self on anyone.”
