Kevin Spacey returns to a role in a movie after three years. The 61-year-old actor, who has been accused of sexual misconduct by several men in recent years, is set to play a role in an Italian film.
The movie is called L’uomo che disegnò Dio ( The Man Who Drew God
The film is directed by Franco Nero. “I am very happy that Kevin wants to play in my movie,” the director told ABC News . “I think he’s a great actor and can’t wait to start the movie.”
The American actor was accused by more than twenty men of sexually transgressive behavior in 2017 . The case prompted Spacey to leave the hit Netflix series House Of Cards shortly after , in which he played the lead role of US President Frank Underwood.
Several cases have been settled and dropped, but an investigation is still ongoing in London and Spacey is due to appear in court again next month in Los Angeles.
The actor’s last film role was in 2018’s Billionaire Boys Club . The film was poorly received.
