Bryan Singer is developing a self-financed documentary which will address the sexual assault allegations against him.
X-Men director Bryan Singer has largely stayed under the radar for the last few years, but Variety reports that he could be plotting a comeback which would kick off with a self-financed documentary addressing the sexual assault allegations against him.
A source told Variety that the Bryan Singer documentary would be about the director and “his struggles.” The pitch, which the source called “impressive,” claims that Singer will address the allegations while he attempts to revive his career. A documentary veteran quipped, “Well at least we know it’ll be fair and balanced.“. Variety reports that Singer has met with investors for three projects that have a $10 million budget each. Jason Taylor, formerly the President of Production for Singer’s production firm, will produce the films.
