Kevin Spacey's Deep History of Alleged Sexual Assault Is Exposed ...

A new wave of sexual assault accusations against Kevin Spacey has arrived in the form of Spacey Unmasked, a documentary in which 10 men speak publicly about alleged abuse they faced at the hands of the actor.

The two-part doc, debuting Monday on Investigation Discovery and streaming on Max following an earlier premiere on the UK’s Channel 4, features revelations from men who were not involved in the London sexual assault trial that saw Spacey acquitted of nine charges last summer. (Spacey pleaded not guilty in the criminal case.) Allegations from men in the documentary, one of whom reportedly refers to the actor as a “soulless monster,” span from Spacey’s high school days to his time on Netflix’s House of Cards, according to the Los Angeles Times. The doc paints a portrait of Spacey as a serial abuser, one who allegedly dangled career advancement and, according to one interview subject, masturbated to a brutal war scene in Steven Spielberg’s Saving Private Ryan.

Directed and produced by Katherine Haywood, Unmasked traces the origins of Spacey’s alleged villainy back to childhood. His older brother, Randy Fowler, says that their late father was a Holocaust denier and neo-Nazi who physically and sexually abused Fowler, as reported by the Times. “Just because [Spacey] wasn’t being abused, it doesn’t mean there wasn’t psychological trauma going on within him from the strange family life we had,” Fowler says in the doc. By the time Spacey reached House of Cards, his controversial reputation was an open secret, says Evelyn, a series production assistant from 2012 to 2015. “I adored working on that set, but the behavior made it a hostile environment for a lot of people,” she says. “The issue of Kevin was certainly well-known.”

At the end of the documentary, the screen reads: “Kevin Spacey said that he had been provided with insufficient time and detail to respond to the testimonies in this film. He said, ‘I have consistently denied—and now successfully defended—numerous allegations made both in the US and the UK, both criminal and civil, and each time have been able to source evidence undermining the allegations and have been believed by a jury of my peers.’” Vanity Fair has reached out to a rep for Spacey for comment.

Spacey has additionally taken to X (formerly Twitter) to argue that Channel 4 did not give him enough time to address the allegations, and he denied any wrongdoing in a video interview with journalist Dan Wootton posted to YouTube. “I take full responsibility for my past behavior and my actions,” he said during that conversation. “But I cannot and will not take responsibility or apologize to anyone who’s made up stuff about me or exaggerated stories about me, because that’s what the press wants…. I’ve never told someone that if they give me sexual favors, then I will help them out with their career—never.” In a statement given to The Hollywood Reporter in response to Spacey’s X post, Channel 4 said: “Kevin Spacey has been given sufficient opportunity to respond.”
