Sean "Diddy" Combs is steaming mad at Netflix and 50 Cent ... because he's going scorched earth on a new docuseries that's about to hit the streaming service.

As you know, 50 promoted the docuseries Monday on "Good Morning America" before its Tuesday release on Netflix, and he previewed never-before-seen footage of Diddy recorded just prior to his September 2024 arrest.

50 also had a very different view on what Diddy's reaction would be to the series, saying the music mogul would think it was "amazing" and "the best documentary I've seen in a long time" with the exception of some bits and pieces. 50 added that Diddy would ultimately "see the truth in it."

50 Cent's new docuseries on Sean "Diddy" Combs is dropping Tuesday on Netflix ... but we're now getting a sneak peek into some of the highlights ... including never-before-seen footage of the music mogul just prior to his September 2024 arrest.

Robin starts by asking the two whether they were surprised Diddy filmed the days leading up to his arrest by federal authorities in NYC.

As you know, Diddy was federally charged with racketeering, sex trafficking, and the Mann Act -- illegally transporting prostitutes across state lines. He was ultimately found guilty of 2 counts of the Mann Act and sentenced to 4 years in prison at trial.

Millie Bobby Brown's been tight with her "Stranger Things" castmates ever since she was a kid ... and it looks like she's more than comfortable with them taking care of her daughter.

The actress spoke to "Entertainment Tonight" at the show's Season 5 premiere event on Thursday night and was asked about which of her costars she'd want to babysit her child ... turns out, the answer's all of them!
