‘Spacey Unmasked’ has dropped several bombshells relating to the sexual assault claims made against Kevin Spacey.
As reported by The Blast, the ‘House Of Cards’ actor faced multiple allegations of misconduct, including sexual assault, in 2017. These accusations led to his removal from the TV show 'House of Cards' and the scrapping of the film 'All the Money in the World,’ as well as a trial in London, where the actor was found not guilty on nine criminal charges.
Kevin Spacey’s Alleged Victims Come Forward
Kevin Spacey faced allegations from several people, accusing him of inappropriate behavior, including sexual assault, harassment, and misconduct.
The accusations spanned over a course of several years and the incidents reportedly occurred in both professional and personal settings.
Many of the alleged victims have come forward to speak of the incidents in the new documentary ‘Spacey Unmasked.’
What Is ‘Spacey Unmasked?’
The new documentary dives into the allegations of sexual misconduct that Kevin Spacey has endured over the years.
According to the official description, the documentary “will explore never-before-heard experiences and emotional testimony around allegations against the Oscar-winning actor for over three decades, tracing back to 1981,” including “first-hand accounts from multiple men who have previously not shared their stories publicly."
Kevin Spacey’s Brother Speaks Out For The First Time
For the first time, the actor’s estranged brother spoke out about the home life they endured when they were children, including abuse at the hands of their father.
According to PEOPLE Magazine, Randy previously shared a "genuine brotherly bond” with Kevin Spacey, and he depicted how they’re relationship with their father had impacted their brotherhood.
"My father blamed the world for all of his problems and he was full of so much hatred," he recalled. Randy also claims his father would regularly host "Nazi meetings" in their home. "My father's office used to have a big Nazi flag hanging up on the wall,” he added.
Randy also opened up about how their father would reportedly “beat the sh-t out of” him with a riding crop. He claims Spacey was too young to understand what was going on, and so the two “split” over time.
Kevin Spacey’s Father Faces Sexual Abuse Claims
Randy then claimed that the abuse continued as he grew older and says he sexually abused him when he was around 13 to 14 years old.
"My father took me up to the master bedroom and r-ped me. He sodomized me. He gave me oral sex," Spacey’s older brother claimed. “This kind of nonsense went on for years and it wasn't until 1971 [that] I just said 'No, this has to stop now."
Randy eventually moved out of the home, but he said he felt guilty for leaving his younger brother in the abusive environment.
"I couldn't take it any longer. What about Kevin? What's going to happen to my little brother?" he recalled of his thought process at the time. "I just had to take a chance that he would be okay. But just because he wasn't being abused doesn't mean that there wasn't psychological trauma going on within him from the strange family life we had."

Kevin Spacey Calls Channel4 A ‘Dying Network’ Ahead Of ‘Spacey Unmasked’ Documentary
Prior to its U.S. release, Kevin Spacey took to X to express his frustrations with Channel4, calling them a “dying” network.
"Over the last week, I have repeatedly requested that @Channel4 afford me more than 7 days to respond to allegations made against me dating back 48 years and provide me with sufficient details to investigate these matters,” Spacey said. “Channel 4 has refused on the basis that they feel that asking for a response in 7 days to new, anonymized and non-specific allegations is a 'fair opportunity' for me to refute any allegations made against me."
The ‘American Beauty’ actor added: "I will not sit back and be attacked by a dying network's one-sided 'documentary' about me in their desperate attempt for ratings. There's a proper channel to handle allegations against me, and it’s not Channel 4."
'Spacey Unmasked' is available to stream on Max.
