Drake Bell is set to break his silence on bombshell allegations that he was sexually abused by a Nickelodeon dialogue coach when he was a minor in an upcoming Investigation Documentary series.
A description for a sneak peek of the show titled, “Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV,” and published Tuesday states, “Former Nickelodeon star Drake Bell will be sharing publicly, for the first time, the story of the abuse he suffered at the hands of Brian Peck.”
“To hear that Brian Peck was a sexual predator, it made me wonder immediately about who was being hurt,” one of Bell’s former co-stars asks in the clip.
Former Nickelodeon star Giovonnie Samuels then adds, “Who it is, when it happened, where it happened, I have no idea.”
Bell, 37, then walks into a dimly lit room and stares as if ready to finally share his side of the story. The exact details of his abuse claims have not yet been disclosed.
“Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV” is set to premiere on March 17 and 18.
Page Six has reached out to reps for Peck for comment but did not immediately hear back.
The former filmmaker worked on Nickelodeon’s “All That” and “The Amanda Show,” two series in which Bell starred when he was a teen.
In 2005, Peck, now 63, was convicted of sexually abusing an unknown Nickelodeon child actor. Bell was reportedly the minor in that case.
