LONDON — Oscar-winning actor Kevin Spacey gets a thrill by preying on other men, a prosecutor told jurors during his sexual assault trial Friday in a London courtroom.
The charges involve men now in their 30s or 40s and date from 2001 to 2013. That covers most of the decade when Spacey lived in Britain and served as artistic director of the Old Vic Theatre until 2015. The two-time Academy Award winner arrived at court by cab more than two hours early. He wore spectacles and was dressed in a light gray suit, white shirt and gold tie.
“I am sure the defendant will be gratified to know that many of you will know his name or have seen his films,” Justice Mark Wall said Wednesday to potential jurors during the brief selection process.The stakes for Spacey are high. A conviction could send him to prison while an acquittal could allow for a career comeback.
