Re: Once popular actors/actresses whose careers went nowhere
Thegun is the only person on the planet that knows about it, that's how much of an insider he is.

Re: Once popular actors/actresses whose careers went nowhere
Thegun entered Kevin Spacey on the set of K-PAX and has lived there ever since.

Re: Once popular actors/actresses whose careers went nowhere
Wait, why are we pretending that Kevin Spacey is straight?

I accept that he might be bisexual, but he's not "straight".

Dude has one of the gayest professions on the planet, but he ain't gay.

Holy shit. Is someone really using Buzzfeed as a source. And a Bump? Most of them make 8$ an hour and barely speak English.

Re: Once popular actors/actresses whose careers went nowhere
It’s an interview that’s since been picked up by the trades, not randomly generated clickbait. Did you even read it before responding? and Spacey has also now apologized and come out: http://deadline.com/2017/10/anthony-rap ... 202197344/

I read it, and I don't believe it. My beloved Kevin Spacey wouldn't do that.

Re: Once popular actors/actresses whose careers went nowhere
It’ll be curious to see how this one shakes out. Coming out, while it’s getting a lot of heat online, will probably help protect him a little. But even opening the door to “I don’t remember it, but if it happened i apologize” seems like a mistake.
Rapp seems to suggest a Weinstein-esque pattern of abuse in his follow up which means this probably isn’t over.

Re: Once popular actors/actresses whose careers went nowhere
The biggest issue here is not if he's gay or not, the biggest issue is that if the other actor was 14, then he is a borderline pedophile.

Re: Once popular actors/actresses whose careers went nowhere
If 10% of what's rumored about Bryan Singer/Spacey and that crew is true they probably belong in jail. It'll be interesting to see where this goes investigation-wise. Just too early to tell.

Re: Once popular actors/actresses whose careers went nowhere
It depends if there's further acts. In isolation Spacey making a drunken pass at a 14 year old who had presumably been showing a lot of signs (at his apartment on his bed, etc.) is bad but I don't think his career should end over it.

Re: Once popular actors/actresses whose careers went nowhere
Making a drunken pass at a 14 year old is pretty fucked up, but yeah given that it's been three decades he can probably weather a single accuser.

Guessing there will be more accusers like Harvey

Re: Once popular actors/actresses whose careers went nowhere
And Netflix just announced that House of Cards is ending next year. They’re “deeply troubled” by the allegations. http://deadline.com/2017/10/house-of-ca ... 202197604/Also: “We have also heard that Netflix’s Spacey starring film Gore about the acerbic author Gore Vidal may be on the chopping block now too.”

Re: Once popular actors/actresses whose careers went nowhere
Jonah Hill's career has been pretty cold for a few years now.

Re: Once popular actors/actresses whose careers went nowhere
I still think Jonah Hill was popular enough in the last few year to not warrant being in this thread. Jay Baruchel on the other hand...

Re: Once popular actors/actresses whose careers went nowhere
Yes for Hill. Also Baruchel just completed a (critically hit) TV series so I think he should be still be fine. Its just that he is suited for voice casting and TV comedies and definitely not big screen fame.
