The first case was reported in 2004 to 2013 when Spacey served as artistic director at Old Vic Theater, British. A man reported Spacey who said the actor was doing the forbidden thing in the mol.
Three other cases were also reported by men at different times. Kevin Spacey denied all these allegations. One of the cases reported by an actor also reported Spacey who was anesthetizing him and made him unconscious until he woke up at the actor's residence.
Spacey's lawyer, Patrick Gibbs, had asked whether the report of the case was made by the men so that they could get financial benefits.
Kevin Spacey also plans to return to acting, starting with the Peter Five Eight film which is planned to air this year.
