Lifetime’s Surviving R. Kelly documentary series was huge for the network—not to mention his many alleged victims’ pursuit of justice—and now Lifetime has announced that it’s putting a sequel of sorts that will explore the developments in the case against Kelly that have come to light since the series aired in January. Specifically, that most likely means his extremely ill-conceived interview with Gayle King, the new sexual assault charges he’s been hit with, and his arrest on federal sex trafficking charges from earlier this month. The Hollywood Reporter says the four-hour update will be called Surviving R. Kelly: The Aftermath, and it will feature interviews with “new survivors, psychologists, and experts.”
