Netflix keeps Russell Brand’s ‘Re:Birth’ after rape conviction, Deadline reports

Netflix will retain the 2018 special ‘Russell Brand: Re:Birth’ but won’t recommend it, Deadline reports. Searching Brand’s name won’t surface it, though “British stand-up comedy” still does. Deadline says Brand received a 10-year, six-month sentence after convictions for rape and three counts of sexual assault. A Netflix source told the outlet it prioritizes members’ “choice and control.”
