On X, formerly Twitter, the 64-year-old actor claimed that he had not been given enough time – seven days, he says – to respond to allegations “dating back 48 years” and that the network did not provide him “sufficient details to investigate these matters”.“Channel 4 has refused on the basis that they feel that asking for a response in seven days to new, anonymised and non-specific allegations is a ‘fair opportunity’ for me to refute any allegations made against me,’” he added.
In a statement to Variety, Channel 4 disputed Spacey’s claim for adequate time: “Spacey Unmasked will broadcast on May 6th and 7th. Kevin Spacey has been given sufficient opportunity to respond.”The UK court found Spacey, who stood trial under his given name, Kevin Spacey Fowler, not guilty of nine sexual offences against four men in their 20s and 30s, between 2004 and 2013.
