Kevin Spacey – Explains Why He’s Not Pleased With Network Behind “Spavey Unmasked”
On May 2, the “House of Card” alum took to X to share his feelings toward Channel 4 and the two-part documentary they’re gearing up to release on May 6 and 7.
“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.”
He claimed that the British network had refused to comply to the request that would have given him a “fair opportunity” to issue “a response in 7 days to new, anonymized and non-specific allegations.”
The actor continued: “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 then noted that every time he was given the “proper forum” to address any allegation made against him, they have always failed under the weight of reason.

He further promised not to keep silent to any latest attack on his character, telling fans to “tune in this weekend” to his X account to see his response.
Following the actor’s claims, Channel 4 and Roast Beef Productions provided a joint statement to media houses, writing, “Spacey Unmasked will broadcast on 6th and 7th May. Kevin Spacey has been given sufficient opportunity to respond.”
The trailer for the docuseries was released on April 26, teasing viewers with intimate details of the accusations made against Spacey as well as his childhood and rise to fame.
The official synopsis describes “Spacey Unmasked” as “a forensic look at a man who was once one of the most admired and respected actors in the world.”
