Discover Chris Brown: A History of Violence, a new documentary delving into the singer’s violent past. Premiering 16 November on ID, exclusive to Foxtel, Fetch, and Binge.

Warner Bros. Discovery ANZ has confirmed the release of Chris Brown: A History of Violence, set to debut on Saturday, 16 November, at 9.30pm on ID. The documentary will be accessible exclusively through Foxtel, Fetch, and Binge.

While Chris Brown has long been celebrated for his musical talent and innovation, the public image of the star shifted dramatically in 2009, when he was arrested for the assault of then-girlfriend Rihanna. The incident marked the beginning of a more troubling narrative around Brown, as additional violent episodes, including charges of intimate partner violence and even sexual assault allegations, emerged over the years.

Chris Brown: A History of Violence delves into the complex and often controversial life of the pop star, tracing his behaviour back to a difficult childhood.

The documentary explores the cyclical nature of abuse and grapples with the broader question: how has Brown, with such a record of public violence, continued to thrive in the entertainment industry? Through expert analysis and cultural commentary, the film offers a deep dive into the experiences of survivors and the psychological impact of abuse, shedding light on the trauma endured by those affected.

Following the documentary, Sunny Hostin, co-host of The View and an Emmy Award-winning journalist, will lead a special conversation focused on intimate partner violence.

This discussion aims to raise awareness about domestic violence, offering insights into how to recognise warning signs and sharing strategies for prevention. The panel, featuring leading experts and advocates, will include Jane Randel, co-founder of NO MORE, an organisation dedicated to combatting domestic violence and sexual assault.

In a statement, Hostin spoke about her personal connection to the issue:

“Throughout my career, I have always prioritised being a fierce defender of women and children. Domestic violence is a very close, personal issue to me as I reflect on my past as a prosecutor of these types of cases, and in my role as a mother and public figure whose actions inform and help shape the next generation.

This issue is a prevalent epidemic which knows no socio-economic boundaries, so I am dedicated to expanding and continuing this crucial conversation. The more we know, the better we can help advocate for change as a society.”

Produced by Ample Entertainment for ID, Chris Brown: A History of Violence promises to deliver a thought-provoking look at a figure whose fame continues to raise difficult questions about accountability in the public eye.
