Channel 4 commissions documentary series on Marilyn Manson accusations

Marilyn Manson looks into the camera, making the ‘shh’ sign with his finger

Real name Brian Warner, the rock star has courted controversy as far back as the 1990s, and has more recently been accused of sexual assault. Each hour-long episode will draw from access to a range of insiders, including lawyers, a former bandmate, a childhood best friend and Warner’s accusers. 

The programme, currently in production with an hour-long format, is being made for Channel 4 by Lightbox and Rolling Stone Films. The magazine Rolling Stone published an article in November 2021 levelling allegations of abuse from multiple women.
