The first allegations were made in autumn 2017. Kevin Spacey’s first court date is now set.
Hollywood actor Kevin Spacey (62) has to appear in court for the first time this Thursday in London after allegations of sexual assault. This was announced by the Metropolitan Police.
At the end of May, the British public prosecutor’s office (Crown Prosecution Service) announced that charges against Spacey for sexual assault had been approved.
There are a total of three cases in London from 2005 and 2008 and one case in the south-west English county of Gloucestershire from 2013, according to the authority. In one of the cases, Spacey was charged with coercing a person into “penetrative sexual activity,” it said.
Allegations of sexual assault and harassment were raised against the actor in autumn 2017 in the course of the MeToo debate. Crew members of the Netflix series “House of Cards” also accused Spacey of sexual harassment. The streaming giant then canceled the collaboration.
In the summer of 2021, the two-time Oscar winner (“The Usual Suspects”, “American Beauty”) was back in front of the camera for the first time since the allegations.
