Kevin Spacey is effectively homeless following a series of sexual-misconduct allegations against him.
In a new interview with The Telegraph, the actor said he lost his Baltimore house “because the costs over these last seven years have been astronomical.”
“I’ve had very little coming in and everything going out,” he said. “You get through it. In weird ways, I feel I’m back to where I first started, which is, I just went where the work was. Everything is in storage, and I hope at some point, if things continue to improve, that I’ll be able to decide where I want to settle down again. I’m living in hotels, I’m living in Airbnbs, I’m going where the work is. I literally have no home, that’s what I’m attempting to explain.”
He described his financial situation as “not great” and admitted that bankruptcy is something that has been “discussed.”
Over the past several years, Spacey has been accused of sexual misconduct by more than a dozen men. He has denied all of the allegations. In 2023, Spacey was found not guilty in a London court for a case in which four men said he sexually assaulted them between 2001 and 2013. He was also found not liable in a 2022 civil lawsuit brought by actor Anthony Rapp, who claimed that Spacey had molested him when he was 14 years old.
Since 2017, when the allegations came to light, Spacey has struggled to be hired as an actor. He has appeared in a few projects and recently performed a variety show in Cyprus, which is the center-point of The Telegraph feature. In the interview, he claimed he is slowly getting more work.
“We are in touch with some extremely powerful people who want to put me back to work,” he said. “And that will happen in its right time. But I will also say what I think the industry seems to be waiting for is to be given permission — by someone who is in some position of enormous respect and authority.”
He continued, of his supposed place on Hollywood’s blacklist, “So, my feeling is if Martin Scorsese or Quentin Tarantino call Evan [his manager, Evan Lowenstein] tomorrow, it will be over. I will be incredibly honored and delighted when that level of talent picks up the phone.”
Despite his financial woes, Spacey said he has not “felt isolated at all.” “But, also, it’s been incredibly positive,” he said. “To have an opportunity to stop, look at my life, ask questions. Why was I such a good villain, why did I fit so well into a narrative that was out there? And some of those were important questions for me to ask, to take accountability for where I made mistakes.”
He added, “I have always felt the public was on my side, and understood what had happened, and were not buying into things that they were reading. And I have always been enormously grateful for that.”
