Since being accused of sexual assault by multiple people, Kevin Spacey has largely stayed out of the public eye.

Aside from that odd, and frankly disastrous, decision to read poetry in front of the Greek statue ‘Boxer at Rest’ in Rome last year, he’s been lowkey, and wisely so.

He was spotted in London earlier this month, sporting a wedding ring, but let’s leave that for another time and focus on the lawsuit just filed against the actor.

The Guardian reports:

Actor Anthony Rapp [below] and another man filed a lawsuit on Wednesday against Kevin Spacey, accusing him of sexual assaults in the 1980s when they were teenagers…

In the lawsuit, filed at the state supreme court in Manhattan, Rapp detailed what he has said publicly about Spacey: that the older actor made a sexual advance to him when Rapp attended a party as a teenager.

Rapp has publicly spoken about the assaults, back in 2017, which then led to others coming forward to speak out against the Oscar winner.

The second plaintiff goes only by the initials CD:

[CD] said that he met Spacey as a teenager while taking an acting class, and that Spacey invited him to his apartment on multiple occasions and engaged in sexual acts with him.

In the lawsuit, the plaintiff said Spacey attempted to assault him sexually on his final visit.

The lawsuit is seeking “unspecified damages”, saying that Rapp “sustained psychological injuries, including but not limited to, severe emotional distress, humiliation, fright, anger, depression and anxiety”, amongst other things.

Spacey, or a representative, has yet to comment on the lawsuit.

According to Deadline, “Spacey is still under investigation by the LA County D.A. and law enforcement authorities in the UK for sexual misconduct claims”.
