Apple has picked up a new untitled documentary presented by Oprah Winfrey and created by Oscar-nominated filmmakers Kirby Dick and Amy Ziering, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

The film will explore alleged sexual misconduct in the music industry, following a former music executive who struggles with whether or not to go public with her story of assault and abuse by a notable music industry executive.

It's described as an examination of race, gender, class, and the toll that assaults take on victims and society.

Dick and Ziering have previously created several other documentaries, including "The Hunting Ground," exposing sexual assault on college campuses and "The Bleeding Edge," an exposé on the medical device industry.

There's no word on what the film will be called, but it's set to be released next year. Oprah Winfrey is serving as an executive producer, along with Terry Wood, Dan Cogan, Regina K. Scully, and others.

Sigh, why is apple only interested in social commentary? Would much rather see a variety of content on Apple TV+ than another social justice commentary. Make a documentary for everyone like a Planet Earth like show, our something else that’s not so “woke”

I started my ATV+ trial over the holiday. So it’s pretty much chock-full of SJ and VS. I’m still enjoying For All Mankind, but I’m almost positive I’ll cancel when the trial ends. Just not my cup of tea.

I wonder if this documentary will cover any of Dr. Dre's past shenanigans.
