Actor Kevin Spacey (64) of Hollywood denies fresh claims of sexual misconduct from men featured in an upcoming UK documentary, "Spacey Unmasked." This follows his previous legal victories against similar allegations.
Spacey, a two-time Oscar winner, has reacted to the documentary, noting that he will no longer remain silent on these issues. "Spacey Unmasked" airs this week and features 10 men alleging inappropriate behaviour by Spacey between 1976 and 2013.
One accuser, Ruari Cannon, details his claims in a British newspaper, alleging an incident in 2013 when he was 21. Spacey denies any criminal wrongdoing.
He acknowledges past mistakes but maintains his innocence regarding fabricated or exaggerated stories. Spacey denies offering career advancement in exchange for sexual favours.
He admits to past consensual relationships with men who might have misconstrued them as career-building opportunities. Spacey stressed that these relationships were never part of any deal on his end.
The interview with Spacey was conducted by Dan Wootton, an online broadcaster. Spacey's career has been significantly impacted by the #MeToo movement accusations that began in 2017. He has consistently denied all allegations.
A UK jury last year acquitted him of nine alleged sex crimes, which followed a New York court in 2022 dismissing a $40 million civil sexual misconduct lawsuit brought against him.
Spacey informed Wootton that he has struggled to get work after the criminal proceedings ended, describing his experience as a “life sentence.”
