Channel 4 to make documentary about toxic influencer Andrew Tate

TOXIC online influencer Andrew Tate is to star in a Channel 4 documentary.

The programme promises to chronicle his rise to social media infamy.

US-born Tate, 36, who grew up in Luton, is in a Romanian jail on suspicion of sex trafficking.

Last year, he got bans from YouTube, TikTok, Facebook and Instagram for pushing his twisted views on women.

Channel 4 has commissioned Amos Pictures to make the film

Producer Dan Reed, director of Michael Jackson documentary Leaving Neverland, said: “Tate has given us full access and we’re looking forward to carrying on filming if he gets out of jail in the coming weeks.”

Commissioning editor Anna Miralis said: “So many questions surround Tate, not least why his anti-feminist agenda resonates so powerfully with his followers.”
