Two-time Oscar winner Kevin Spacey walked into a London courtroom Wednesday to face trial on charges of sexually assaulting four men as long as two decades ago.
The actor was dressed in a dark blue suit, light blue shirt and pink tie as he was called by his full name and asked if he was Kevin Spacey Fowler.Get the latest entertainment from across Canada and around the world
More than two dozen entered the courtroom and the first 14 were seated without objection from the prosecution or defence. Thirteen people were then excuse. Spacey has said an acquittal in the case could revive a career that has largely been on ice since sexual misconduct allegations surfaced against the star who won his first Academy Award for supporting actor in "The Usual Suspects" in 1995.
Spacey's downfall came amid the .MeToo movement in the United States when allegations led to him being written off the Netflix political thriller "House of Cards," where he played lead character Frank Underwood, a ruthless and corrupt congressman who becomes president. He was cut from the completed film "All the Money in the World," and the scenes reshot with Christopher Plummer.
