American performer Kevin Spacey, who was removed from his role in the series “House of Cards” in 2017 after being accused of sexual assault, will return to television. The artist will take the lead role in the Italian series “Small Big Shop,” premiering on December 26th. This was reported by The Variety publication.
It is specified that Spacey played himself. According to the plot, he is the mentor to a young man working in a Roman store who dreams of becoming a television star.
Spacey’s Hollywood career essentially ended in 2017 when he faced sexual assault allegations. Despite being found not guilty in all cases, the actor has not yet managed to return to Hollywood. Furthermore, due to numerous legal proceedings and the cessation of film work, Spacey himself shared that he became virtually homeless as he had to travel the world and take any available job.
Italy turned out to be one of the nations where the artist was not “canceled.” In 2021, Spacey appeared in the low-budget independent drama “The Man Who Drew God” by Italian actor and director Franco Nero. Since then, the Italian phase of the famous actor’s career began.
Earlier, 5-tv.ru reported that Hollywood actor Armie Hammer, who was accused of cannibalism, might star in a Russian spy action film.
