Kevin Spacey tells Jay Pears “bigger” after the request for sexual harassment
- Jay Peres said that Kevin Spacey “targeted him” on the “La Confidential” group in 1996.
- When Spacey was accused of sexual assault in 2017, Pierce said he had “collapsed.”
- Spacey responded in a video clip on X, and he told Pears that “grows up”.
Kevin Spacey responded to Jay Peres, accusing him of sexual harassment of the 1996 movie “La Confidential” by telling him “growing up”.
“La Confidential” tells the story of three police officers, played by Pierce, Spacey, and Rice Crowe, who achieve corruption and murder in Los Angeles in the fifties.
Pierce, who plays the starring role in the movie “The Brutalist”, who was nominated for the Academy Award this year, remembered the work with Spacey on The Hollywood Reporter’s “Gossip prizes“Bodcast. Pears said he considers himself a victim, but he added,” I was definitely a victim of any means to the extent that others were to sexual predators. “
He said he tried to ignore Spessi’s progress towards him during production, without going into more details.
Pears said: “I did this thing where you go:” Oh, this is nothing. Ah, no, this is nothing. “I did it for five months, and I was really afraid of Kevin because he is an aggressive man.
“He is very charming and wonderful in what he is doing, really impressive, etc. It is significantly carrying a room. But I was young and messenger, and he did not target me, no doubt.”
He added: “I faced some confrontations with Kevin after that, which became ugly.” Pears did not specify what happened, when these alleged interactions were or their results.
In 2017, actor Anthony Rap Spacey was accused of sexual assault at a party in 1986, when he was 14 years old.
Rap sued Spacey in October 2022, but a jury found that he was not responsible after a civil trial in New York.
Rap’s allegations were followed by others against Spacey, one of the men who worked in the film industry and at the Old Vic Theater in London, where Spacey was the art director from 2004 to 2015.
With the hearing of the news, Pierce said: “I was in London working on something, and I heard this and separated from it and I was accompanied, and I could not stop.
“I think it truly detonated the influence that happened and how I clean it and how you were either attached to it or prevented it or anything else. This was a really great invitation to assume.”
In 2024, Spacey responded to a documentary film for the allegations: “I take full responsibility for my behavior and actions. But I cannot and will not take responsibility or apologize to anyone who consists of stories about me or exaggerating me.”
