Kim Kardashian‘s Paris robbery is getting turned into a docu-series.
Back in October 2016, the 45-year-old reality star was the victim of a terrifying ordeal when a group of men disguised as police officers broke into her Paris hotel room, held her at gunpoint, and robbed her of millions of dollars worth of jewelry.
It has now been announced that Pernel Media is working on a new four-part docu-series about the robbery, titled Kim, the Diamond and the Grandpa Robbers, for Canal+.

The outlet also notes that Kim is not involved in this project.
“With roots in France and one of the most famous names in the world, this premium pop crime series sits very much within the DNA of the international productions that we at Pernel Media love to put together — combining strong storytelling with projects designed to travel,” Samuel Kissous, founder of Pernel Media and executive producer, said in a press release.
In early 2025, 12 people were tried in connection with the robbery with eight defendants convicted and two acquitted. Kim testified in the case. The suspects in court were nicknamed the “Grandpa Robbers” by the press as they were all of or near senior age.
Directed by Agnès Buthion, Kim, the Diamond and the Grandpa Robbers is expected to be released in early 2027.
In an episode of The Kardashians, Kim claimed that ex-husband Kanye West accused her of faking the robbery.
