Kevin Spacey Hollywood Comeback Not Likely, Studio Exec Says ‘Hell No’

A comeback for actor Kevin Spacey is not likely following his legal issues.

Spacey is a well-revered actor who has won Oscars for his performances in The Usual Suspects and American Beauty. He has a long filmography of successful work, such as his roles in Se7en, A Bug’s Life, L.A. Confidential, Glengarry Glen Ross, Superman Returns, and the Netflix series House of Cards. In 2017, Spacey was accused with multiple allegations of sexual misconduct.

A trial recently declared Spacey not guilty of his sexual assault charges, and some have wondered if the star will return to appearing in studio films, with his most recent one being Baby Driver in 2017. Since the allegations, he has appeared in smaller movies like Billionaire Boys Club, The Man Who Drew God, and Control.

Will Kevin Spacey make a comeback?

“Hell no,” one major studio executive said after being asked whether they’d ever consider casting Spacey.

“I think he’ll continue to work overseas outside of the studio system, but I can’t imagine he’s going to be in a Marvel movie anytime soon,” said one longtime talent manager.
