Kevin Spacey shared a bizarre video of himself Monday as his Frank Underwood character from Netflix’s “House of Cards” after authorities announced he faces a felony charge for allegedly sexually assaulting the teenage son of former WCVB news anchor Heather Unruh at a Nantucket bar in July 2016.
The Boston Globe was the first to report that Cape and Islands District Attorney Michael O’Keefe said the actor will be arraigned on a charge of indecent assault and battery on Jan. 7, 2019, at Nantucket District Court.
A lawyer for Spacey did not immediately return Fox News’ request for comment. However, as the news broke, the actor shared a video of himself on YouTube titled, “Let Me Be Frank.”
“I know what you want,” Spacey says as Underwood in the video. “Oh sure, they may have tried to separate us, but what we have is too strong, it’s too powerful and 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 though you knew you shouldn’t. So we’re not done, no matter what anyone says. And besides, I know what you want: You want me back.”
Spacey’s call to “let me be Frank” is seemingly in reference to Netflix firing him from the political drama after he was accused of sexual assault last year. Later in the video, the actor, still as Underwood, appears to reference his character’s untimely death in the series saying, “All this presumption made for such an unsatisfying ending and to think it could have been such a memorable send-off.” – READ MORE
