Oprah Winfrey withdraws Documentary for Apple TV+
Today Oprah Winfrey has announced that she will be withdrawing from the upcoming Untitled Kirby Dick and Amy Ziering Documentary. This move has also resulted in the documentary being canceled on Apple TV+ according to a Deadline report.
Oprah Winfrey issued the following statement about this plan:
“I have decided that I will no longer be executive producer on The Untitled Kirby Dick and Amy Ziering Documentary and it will not air on Apple TV+. First and foremost, I want it to be known that I unequivocally believe and support the women. Their stories deserve to be told and heard. In my opinion, there is more work to be done on the film to illuminate the full scope of what the victims endured and it has become clear that the filmmakers and I are not aligned in that creative vision. Kirby Dick and Amy Ziering are talented filmmakers. I have great respect for their mission but given the filmmakers’ desire to premiere the film at the Sundance Film Festival before I believe it is complete, I feel it’s best to step aside. I will be working with Time’s Up to support the victims and those impacted by abuse and sexual harassment.”
