Louis Tomlinson has severed ties with former One Direction bandmate Zayn Malik and pulled the plug on their planned Netflix docuseries following a blazing row in the US. The dispute allegedly ended with Malik punching him in the face and 'crossing a line' over a comment about Tomlinson's late mother, according to a source.
The Netflix project had been billed as a soft-launch reunion for the estranged stars, who had reconnected following the death of Liam Payne in October 2024. Tomlinson, 34, and Malik, 33, were said to be fronting a three-part road-trip series across America, their first sustained time together since Malik quit One Direction in 2015. The show, filmed with Netflix cameras in tow, was widely read by fans as a tentative olive branch after years of distance and sometimes frosty public remarks.
