Watch Spacey Unmasked: Synopsis
For decades, Kevin Spacey was widely celebrated as one of the world's finest actors. He received his first Oscar in 1996 for his astonishing supporting role as whipsmart criminal Verbal in The Usual Suspects, and his second would come four years later, following his evocative portrayal of American Beauty's downtrodden dad Lester Burnham.
He has a Tony Award and a Golden Globe to his name too, as well as an honorary knighthood and CBE, and has made icons of numerous characters besides, most notably House of Cards' unsrupulous climber Frank Underwood and Se7en's unsettlingly remorseless John Doe.
Two-part documentary Spacey Unmasked traces his journey from a middle-class New Jersey upbringing to godlike status in Hollywood, and the meteoric fall that would follow.
In 2017, actor Anthony Rapp accused Spacey of making sexual advances at him when he was just 14 years old. Spacey responded with an apology, but added that he had no memory of the encounter, which he described as "deeply inappropriate drunken behavior." To widespread outrage, he also used his statement to declare: "I choose now to live as a gay man."
What followed was a deluge of accusations of inappropriate sexual misconduct, which Spacey Unmasked promises to "take a forensic look at," including the $40 million civil lawsuit that Spacey won in 2022, and his acquittal when facing nine further charges of sexual assault in 2023.
