American actor Kevin Spacey, star of House of Cards and numerous films, has been charged by police in London with four counts of sexual assault against three men.

The Metropolitan Police said on Thursday it had been authorised by the Crown Prosecution Service to charge 62-year-old Kevin Spacey Fowler.

Spacey has also been charged with causing a person to engage in penetrative sexual activity without consent.

The decision by the CPS follows a review of the evidence gathered by the Metropolitan Police over a three-year investigation.

Spacey will face a trial later this year or in 2023 and, under England’s Contempt of Court Act, no information can be published which might prejudice that trial.

The Met said the offences against Spacey were:

  • Sexual assault on a man, who is now in his 40s, in March 2005 in London.
  • Sexual assault on that same man in March 2005 in London.
  • Sexual assault on a man, who is now in his 30s, in August 2008 in London.
  • Sexual assault on another man, who is now in his 30s, in April 2013 in Gloucestershire.
  • Causing a person to engage in penetrative sexual activity without consent, relating to the third complainant, in August 2008 in London.

Spacey, who was born in New Jersey, trained at the Juilliard drama school in New York and began his career as an actor in the early 1980s.

He won a Tony on Broadway and then broke into movies, with his first big part in Glengarry Glen Ross alongside Al Pacino.
