SPACEY’S BIZARRE FILM PLEA Actor’s odd video after assault charge

“I know what you want, and sure, they may have tried to separate us, but what we have is too strong, is too powerful. “I mean after all, we shared everything, you and I. I told you my deepest, darkest secrets.

“I showed you exactly what people are capable of. I shocked you with my honesty, but mostly I challenged you and made you think.

“And you trusted me, even Heather Unruh though you knew you ACTOR Kevin Spacey has released a creepy video after being charged with sexual assault in the US.

The 59-year-old Oscar winner is alleged to have assaulted a teenager at a bar in Boston, Massachuse­tts, in July 2016.

In the video he tweeted on Christmas Eve, Spacey spoke direct to camera in the style of his House of Cards character,

Frank Underwood. He said: shouldn’t. So we’re not done, no matter what anyone says. And besides, I know what you want – you want me back.”

Spacey will appear at Nantucket District Court on January 7, charged with indecent assault and battery.

His alleged victim is the son of former news anchor Heather Unruh, who spoke of the allegation in November 2017.

She said the actor bought her son “drink after drink” before sticking his hand down the 18-year-old’s pants and grabbing his genitals. Underwood was killed off by Netflix after actor Anthony Rapp said he was 14 when Spacey, then 26, made an advance to him in 1986.

Scotland Yard has six open sexual assault investigat­ions into Spacey.

In his weird video, Spacey said: “You wouldn’t believe the worst without evidence, would you? You wouldn’t rush to judgments without facts, would you?”

He added: “I’m certainly not going to pay the price for the things I didn’t do.”
