Kevin Spacey, charged with sexual assault, said: I know there are people who are ready to hire me as soon as I am cleared of these charges in London. »
Kevin Spacey has hinted in a new interview that he has several plans in mind as he awaits the verdict of his sexual assault trial in London.
« I know there are people who are ready to hire me as soon as I am cleared of these charges in London.said Kevin Spacey in an interview published Wednesday by ZEITmagazin. The second that happens, they’re ready to move on. »
Spacey has already pleaded not guilty to 12 counts of sexual assault on four men between 2001 and 2013. His trial is scheduled to begin June 28 and last three to four weeks.
The actor believes a not-guilty verdict would pave the way for his return to the limelight, nearly five years following the allegations were first made once morest him.
« It’s a time when a lot of people are very afraid of being boycotted if they support me.”Mr. Spacey said, adding that he was “not not ready to talk » of the allegations or their consequences.
Although Spacey didn’t specify what those future plans were that depend on a not-guilty verdict, the actor hasn’t been totally inactive since the beginning of his legal wrangling: he first played so controversial in the Italian drama L’uomo che disegnò Dio (2022) before obtaining the main role in the next American thriller Peter Five Eight. Both of these movies, however, are a far cry from the Hollywood movies Spacey was used to before actor Anthony Rapp first revealed his allegations once morest him in 2017.
These charges resulted in a civil lawsuit where Kevin Spacey was ultimately found not responsible. ” That’s what happened in the Rapp trial, and that’s what will happen in this case. “, Spacey told Time.
The actor also saw charges dropped and dismissed in criminal and civil cases in Massachusetts and California in 2019. In the Massachusetts case, charges were dropped following the accuser invoked the Fifth Amendment, while the California case was dismissed following the accuser died of natural causes.
While Spacey has always denied any wrongdoing in his statements, the actor admitted to Time : « There is no school where you can learn how to manage fame. I think I really tried not to be an asshole. But I think to some extent I was an asshole. »
