- The Peacock P Diddy documentary hits Showmax next month, with the tell-all revealing how the music mogul fell from grace.
- It debuts on 7th February 2025.
- It is joined by a slate of new series and films on the streaming platform.
“Sean Combs is a monster,” is the opening words of Diddy: The Making of a Bad Boy. A new documentary from Peacock in the US that delves deeper into the hip hop mogul and his (allegedly) dark lifestyle.
The new tell-all is part of a fresh slate of shows hitting Showmax in South Africa in the next few weeks.
It combines the interest of true crime and hip-hop fans, and let’s face it, anyone who is online right now.
“Featuring never-before-seen footage and stories from those who know him best, Diddy: The Making of a Bad Boy sheds light on his childhood, rise to fame, and recent criminal allegations, challenging viewers to rethink everything they thought they knew about the mogul behind the music – and the mugshot,” Showmax explains in a press release to Hypertext.
The Diddy doc premiers on Showmax in South Africa on 7th February 2025.
It is joined by a spate of new series and films on the streaming platform for just about anyone. Streaming from 3rd February 2025 is Tiddler, the story of a little fish with a big imagination. This show is co-directed by South African Alex Bain and an Emmy winning team.
Harold can use his purple crayon to make anything come to life, simply drawing it. This feature film adaptation of Crockett Johnson’s children’s classic, Harold and the Purple Crayon stars Critics Choice nominee and Teen Choice winner Zachary Levi (aka Shazam and Chuck, and the voice of Flynn Rider in Tangled).
Streaming from 11th February 2024.
The latest entry in the Despicable Me series debuts on Showmax from 20th February, and sees Gru, Lucy and the girls welcome a new family member – Gru Jr!

From laughs to drama, check out the great Peter Dinklage chewing up the screen with greats Anne Hathaway and Marisa Tomei in She Came to Me, where “a composer with an unfinished opera, a conflicted psychiatrist and a free-spirited tugboat captain collide on a voyage into uncharted waters in the enchanting romcom.”
“There hasn’t been a romantic comedy this inventive in a long time,” says Awardswatch.
