LONDON Kevin Spacey , the Oscar-winning actor, has denied new allegations of inappropriate behaviour from men who will feature in a documentary on British television that is out this week.

In an online interview with journalist Dan Wootton, Spacey said he has never done anything illegal and admitted that he has struggled to get back to work after being acquitted last year of criminal charges in a London court.

I cant go through this again, allowing myself to be baselessly attacked without defending myself, he said in the interview entitled Kevin Spacey: Right Of Reply which was aired late Friday on Woottons YouTube channel.

Last July, a London jury acquitted Spacey on sexual assault charges stemming from allegations by four men dating back 20 years. The court victory was his second since he saw off a $40 million lawsuit in 2022 in New York brought by Star Trek: Discovery actor Anthony Rapp.

The documentary Spacey Unmasked was set to be aired Tuesday and Wednesday and 7 on Channel 4 in Britain and streamed on Max in the U.S.

The documentary is said to feature testimony from men regarding events between 1976 and 2013, the actor revealed during the interview.

I take full responsibility for my past behaviour and my actions, but I cannot and will not take responsibility or apologize to anyone whos made up stuff about me or exaggerated stories about me, said Spacey, who won Academy Awards for The Usual Suspects and American Beauty.

Ive never told someone that if they give me sexual favors, then I will help them out with their career, never, he added.

Spacey, who served as artistic director of the Old Vic Theatre in London from 2004 to 2015, again admitted that he was a flirt with men in their 20s and that he made clumsy passes at times.

Ive clearly hooked up with some men, who thought they might get ahead in their careers by having a relationship with me, he said. But there was no conversation with me, it was all part of their plan, a plan that was always destined to fail, because I wasnt in on the deal.
