Kevin Spacey seen at event in Rome, Italy promoting The Man Who Drew God… amid sex scandal

Kevin Spacey was photographed at an event Wednesday at the Cine Adriano in Rome, Italy, promoting his film The Man Who Drew God, titled in Italian, L’uomo che disegnò Dio.

The embattled actor, who has faced multiple sexual assault allegations over the past five years, was at the event at the theater two days after the National Museum of Italian Cinema honored him with a lifetime achievement award in Turin, Italy.

On Wednesday, the New Jersey-born actor, 63, dressed in a dark gray suit over a lapis lazuli blue button-down shirt with a horizontally striped tie and black shoes.

The American Beauty star wore a pair of dark-rimmed glasses and had her hair neatly styled at the movie event.

The Oscar-winning actor was photographed with his collaborators on the film, which was directed by Franco Nero, who also appears as an actor in the film with Spacey, Faye Dunaway and Robert Davi.

Spacey posed for photos with Nero and actress Stefania Rocca at the event.

The Usual Suspects star acknowledged Monday that the National Film Museum chose him for its honor, following years of legal troubles and sexual accusations amid the #MeToo movement that crippled his once-thriving career.

‘I am truly blessed, grateful and honored. And my heart is very full tonight towards the National Museum of Cinema for having had [the balls] invite me tonight,’ said the House of Cards star. “By presenting this award, they are making a strong case for artistic achievement and for that they should be applauded.”

At the event, Spacey said he was “hugely grateful” to Nero for casting him in The Man Who Drew God.

Spacey signed autographs and posed for selfies with fans who attended the event.

Assistant Mery Bicci told the access point“When the scandal happened, I went into mourning because I knew very well that they were going to put him away immediately.”

Chiara Ottolini, another attendee at the event said of Spacey: “I actually missed him, and I think he had a great role in the movies… I’m very happy to see that he’s coming back, because we have to separate the man and the artist.

Spacey was honored Monday with a lifetime achievement award by the National Museum of Italian Cinema in Turin, Italy.

In June, Spacey is scheduled to stand trial in London in connection with 12 counts of sexual assault against four men between 2001 and 2013. Spacey has pleaded not guilty to the charges.

Last October, Spacey was acquitted by a federal jury in New York in connection with allegations that he sexually assaulted actor Anthony Rapp, 50, when he was 14 in 1986, when the two stars were working on Broadway.

In 2019, Massachusetts prosecutors dropped charges against the actor in connection with allegations that he fondled a man at a bar.
