The Weinstein Company has announced that Sean “Diddy” Combs will serve as executive producer on a remake of the Oscar-nominated documentary Undefeated.
Diddy will serve as producer on the original version of the film, which sees a limited release on February 17th. Undefeated, nominated for an Academy Award this year, is a “coming-of-age verite-style documentary centering on several young student-athletes and the volunteer coach who guides them through a rough, yet rewarding, football season in northern Memphis.”
The Bad Boy mogul has previously served as producer on A Raisin in the Sun and Notorious, as well as the television shows “Making the Band” and HBO’s “P. Diddy Presents the Bad Boys of Comedy.”
