Celebrities, including Sharon Stone, Liam Neeson, and Stephen Fry, are expressing their support for Kevin Spacey’s return to acting. Stone commented that she is excited to see Spacey back at work, praising his talent and expertise in their craft. Neeson also shared his sadness over the accusations against Spacey, describing him as a good man with a great sense of humor and artistic talent. Fry defended Spacey, acknowledging his past behavior as “clumsy” and “inappropriate,” but argued against comparing him to individuals like Harvey Weinstein.
Despite facing accusations of sexual misconduct in 2017, Spacey responded by coming out as gay and denying memory of the incident in question. He has not appeared on screen or in theatre since the accusations surfaced. Last year, he was acquitted of nine sex offenses in London. Other supporters of Spacey, such as F Murray Abraham and Sir Trevor Nunn, have also voiced their support for the actor.
Criticism of Spacey’s return to acting and the documentary “Spacey Unmasked” has been met with opposition from his supporters, who argue that he has faced consequences for his actions and should not continue to be attacked based on allegations without evidence. The debate around Spacey’s return to acting continues as he seeks to resume his career.
