Overview
- Multiple outlets reported Friday that Netflix shelved a planned three-part road-trip series featuring Zayn Malik and Louis Tomlinson after an alleged fight during filming.
- An unnamed source told The Sun that Malik punched Tomlinson after a remark about Tomlinson’s late mother, cutting his head with rings and leading to a concussion and medical treatment.
- Netflix has not commented, yet director Nicola Marsh posted The Sun’s front page and wrote, “And there goes the last year of work,” which signaled a collapsed project.
- Tomlinson has unfollowed Malik on Instagram, and Malik told fans Friday he was “unexpectedly recovering” in hospital after a recent stay.
- Reports place the clash about six months ago in the United States, and several outlets say the pair have not spoken since.
