Succession's Brian Cox says Kevin Spacey should be given second chance: 'Let's move on'

As a lifestyle expert with decades of experience in the entertainment industry, I find myself constantly evaluating the complexities of the human condition and the ever-evolving landscape of Hollywood. In the case of Kevin Spacey, my perspective is shaped by my understanding of second chances and the capacity for redemption.

Succession star Brian Cox says he feels it’s time Hollywood lets Kevin Spacey back on set.

In a detailed interview with The Hollywood Reporter on Monday, the actor, who is now 78, expressed his view that it would be appropriate to grant him another chance to return to work.

A person from Dundee, Scotland, who collaborated with Spacey approximately three decades ago on the 1994 Disney movie “Iron Will,” recently stated that Spacey is an exceptionally talented actor who has faced numerous challenges, seven years following a series of sexual misconduct allegations which significantly impacted Spacey’s thriving career.

The Emmy Award-winning actor expressed his view that Kevin may have concealed or denied certain aspects of himself, which he believes caused him stress in multiple areas. In his perspective, this was the sole challenge Kevin faced.

Consequences in Spacey’s career arose following accusations, such as losing his main part in the popular Netflix series House of Cards called “House of Cards”; and being erased digitally from the 2017 movie “All the Money in the World” and replaced by the late actor Christopher Plummer.

Cox stated regarding Spacey, “He’s faced the consequences some believe were fitting for him. Now, he wants to resume his work, but others are attempting to prevent him.

“I believe in returning to the saying, ‘He who is without fault, let him throw the first stone.’ Perhaps he crossed a line, but I don’t think he deserves eternal punishment. Instead, forgiveness and forgetting should be extended. Let’s now focus on moving forward.

In a casual, straightforward manner: Cox, known for roles in films like Troy, Braveheart, and The Bourne Identity, expressed that he admires Spacey greatly and finds him highly amusing.

Seven months following the appeals by Sharon Stone and Liam Neeson in The Telegraph, Brian Cox, who played Logan Roy on the HBO drama that received critical acclaim from 2018 until its ending in 2023, expressed his thoughts.

Regarding the individual known as Stone, who recently stirred up debate due to comments concerning President-elect Donald Trump’s re-election, she expressed admiration for Spacey, referring to him as a prodigious talent, and eagerly anticipates his return to work.

The actress from the Casino movie commented, “He’s incredibly refined and entertaining, overly generous, and has a deeper understanding of our profession than many of us could ever hope to achieve.

Neeson expressed his disappointment upon hearing the accusations against Spacey, stating, “Kevin is an honorable individual with strong moral values.

Apart from experiencing a sudden end to his professional life, Spacey has been dealing with numerous legal and monetary issues for the last seven years.

In June, his high-end Baltimore condominium was sold at auction for $5.6 million, due to the possibility of a foreclosure on the property.

In a conversation with Piers Morgan in June, Spacey acknowledged being financially strapped, owing millions due to substantial legal fees that have depleted his wealth.

2022 saw a court case in New York City favor Spacey, stemming from allegations made by actor Anthony Rapp, aged 53, who claimed that an incident of sexual misconduct occurred between them in 1986. At the time, Spacey was 26 and Rapp was just 14 years old.

A jury in New York City ruled in favor of Spacey in October of 2022 in the $40 million civil suit.

In July 2023, Spacey was found not guilty in London regarding sexual assault accusations from four men, spanning over several decades.

Spacey appeared emotional during court proceedings, as he spoke about the impact the accumulation of accusations against him had on his career, during the time of the widespread #MeToo movement.
