Leah Remini’s crusade has just started — a source tells Us Weekly that the actress, who won an Emmy for her docuseries, Leah Remini: Scientology and the Aftermath, will return to A&E to investigate other “cult-like religions.”.
The first episode will be about Jehovah Witnesses and another episode will be about Nxivm, a controversial self-empowerment group, according to the source.
We’ve been getting an overwhelming amount of emails and people contacting us through [social media] about other cults that are similar [to Scientology], so I’m looking into that.”.
Remini, 47, left the organization in 2013 after questioning leader David Miscavige and claiming that members of the elite sea org were being abused, among other allegations.
Since then, she has also spoken out against Elisabeth Moss and Tom Cruise, who are members of Scientology.
Remini has been vocal while exposing the practices of the organization — even calling on the FBI, the IRS and Department of Justice for their help.
