Kevin Spacey’s Agent, Publicist Drop Him Amid Mounting Abuse Claims

The talent agency that represented the actor for the past eight years has parted ways with him.

Both Kevin Spacey’s publicist and talent agency have cut ties with the actor amid mounting sexual harassment and abuse allegations. Spacey’s publicist, Staci Wolfe, and the CAA talent agency will no longer be representing the actor, Deadline Hollywood reports. The news comes after CNN reported new allegations, with eight current and former employees of the Netflix drama House of Cards accusing the actor of “predatory” behavior on set. Spacey had been with CAA for eight years. He is just the latest big name in Hollywood to face a major backlash for alleged sexual harassment after claims against movie mogul Harvey Weinstein opened the floodgates last month. Spacey was first accused earlier this week by Anthony Rapp, an actor who says Spacey made sexual advances on him when he was 14.
