Morgan Spurlock's latest documentary, his follow-up to his 2004 hit Super Size Me, will not premiere at the Sundance Film Festival as planned.

The remaining partners in Spurlock's production company said Friday that they pulled Super Size Me 2: Holy Chicken! from the January Sundance slate in the aftermath of Spurlock's confessions of sexual misconduct this week.

Warrior Poets partners Jeremy Chilnick and Matthew Galkin said in a statement to the Associated Press that "this is not the appropriate time" for the film to premiere.

YouTube Red said Friday it would not release the film, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

YouTube had picked up Supersize Me 2 for $3.5 million out of the Toronto International Film Festival. No release plans had been officially announced.

"We feel for all of the women impacted by the recent statements made by Morgan Spurlock," a statement from a YouTube spokeswoman to THR said. "In light of this situation, we have decided not to distribute Super Size Me 2 on YouTube Red."

Producers of another documentary set to premiere at Sundance next month also said Friday they were distancing themselves from Spurlock.

"In light of Morgan's recent revelations, we agreed to end his association with The Devil We Know,'" producer Kristin Lazure said in a statement to the Associated Press. She said she hoped to keep the focus on the film, which explores the effects of toxic chemical pollution.

On Thursday, Spurlock stepped down from his production company, Warrior Poets. Chilnick and Galkin confirmed to USA TODAY in a statement that Spurlock's move was "effective immediately."

Spurlock said in a lengthy Twitter post Wednesday that as he watches "hero, man after man, fall at the realization of their past indiscretions, I don’t sit by and wonder 'who will be next?' I wonder, 'when will they come for me?' "

"I’m sure I’m not alone in this thought, but I can’t blindly act as though I didn’t somehow play a part in this, and if I’m going (to) truly represent myself as someone who has built a career on finding the truth, then it’s time for me to be truthful as well," he wrote. "I am part of the problem."

In his post, Spurlock details:

A sexual encounter in college that ended with his female partner claiming rape.

Calling a former female employee "hot pants" and "sex pants" in the office and paying her a settlement when she quit.

Having been "unfaithful to every wife and girlfriend I have ever had."

That he started drinking at age 13 and hasn't been sober "for more than a week in 30 years."

His motive remains unclear: Was Spurlock purely trying to take responsibility for his actions? Get ahead of new allegations? Preserve his reputation as a documentarian? Reassure investors, like those at CBS and A&E?

Some on Twitter were skeptical.

"Good strategic move to get ahead of what you knew would ultimately be revealed. You are the problem. Now, become part of the solution. What will you do other than owning the behavior? What will you do to empower women and aid their success?" wrote Bo Young Lee.

"So do better. Donate your name, time, and money into getting more women in office," wrote @RedFoxHeart.

Others gave him kudos.

"Being aware is a beginning. Good luck going forward. Make amends," wrote @landis_melissa.

"Thank you for your honesty and bravery," wrote @pineapple_bobb44.
