Kevin Spacey Accused of Groping Filmmaker Tony Montana, Sexually Harassing Young Actors at Theater

Kevin Spacey Accused of Groping Filmmaker Tony Montana, Sexually Harassing Young Actors at London Theater

Following allegations that Kevin Spacey made a sexual advance toward an underage actor in 1986, more accusations of misconduct have surfaced. Filmmaker Tony Montana tells Radar Online that Spacey groped him in 2003 while the two were at a bar in Los Angeles. “I went up to order a drink and Kevin came up to me and put his arm around me,” Montana says. “He was telling me to come with him, to leave the bar. He put his hand on my crotch forcefully and grabbed my whole package.” Montana says Spacey then told him, “This designates ownership.” After Montana removed Spacey’s hand from his crotch and left, Spacey allegedly followed him into the bathroom. Montana says Spacey appeared intoxicated. “I backed him out the door and I pushed him,” he says. “One of his friends was in line and I said, ‘It’s time to take your boy home.’ They all ended up leaving.” Montana says he previously spoke about the alleged groping only to his therapists and that he suffered from PTSD in the six months after the incident.

Actor Roberto Cavazos, who performed at London’s Old Vic where Spacey served as artistic director from 2004 to 2015, claims Spacey routinely preyed on young male actors at the theater. “It seems the only requirement was to be a male under the age of 30 for Mr Spacey to feel free to touch us. It was so common that it even became a local joke (in very bad taste),” he wrote on Facebook. Cavazos describes multiple stories of Spacey arranging “picnics” at the theater with actors to discuss their careers where he would inappropriately touch them. “I myself had a couple of nasty encounters with Spacey that were on the verge of being called harassment. In fact, if I had been a woman, I probably wouldn’t have hesitated to identify [them] as such,” he wrote. Cavazos says there are likely to be more accusations made against Spacey from people who worked at the Old Vic, and that he “wouldn’t be surprised if they were numbers like Weinstein.” In a previous statement, Spacey said he could not recall the alleged incident with the minor but apologized.

When do these Hollywood elitists start getting treated like the Jerry Sanduskys of the world? They’re not much better. Is there a different set of laws for Hollywood?

He’s through in Hollywierd because, after coming out as a “gay man,” he will no longer be given starring roles, which do not feature “gay” roles.

The only a gay male actor makes it big in starring is if h is closeted to the film-going audiences, period.

No romantic roles with women, heterosexuals won’t accept it and gays won’t like it.

There aren’t enough gays and bisexuals movie going audiences to pay for the mega million movies today and normal audiences have to buy into real sexual relations, not gays pretending, so a bust money wise.

Bingo, Kevin’s toast no matter what.

He might just wait for “funny gay guy” roles on tv and game shows.

Hard to live the lavish lifestyles on those salaries!

So tell me, Weinstein was a pervert and a sexual predator and Spacey was a pervert and a sexual predator. So being a sexual predator as a straight or a homosexual are equal or am I missing something?

Weinstein was a predator and used his position immorally. Spacey was a predator and used his position immorally. So being straight and a predator was immoral, wrong. Ergo, being homosexual and a predator was immoral and wrong. Is that correct?

Why would anyone be closeted today, when it’s considered better to be a gay man?

You play in a cesspool you’re going to get crap on you...That goes for the gals as well. They know what they’re getting into and the ‘price to play’ .....which is why they have and will continue to grin and bear it. All this media frenzy is just ‘another game’ to get their faces into the spotlight. They’re loosing money so selling stories of sexual abuse and political opinions is their new draw.

I am so tired of every Hollywood pansy and “Vietnam Era” Leavenworth truck driver talking about PTSD.

We’ll sort of but, and it’s a big but, the public begins to embrace movies starring gay heros like the gay James Bond spy who loves me, blockbuster thrillers featuring the gay police detective falling for the gay crime victim, the gay bodyguard hired by a Mafia Don who’s gay son and his bodyguard fall in love, etc.

I think Hollywierd has tried forcing gay love stories down us but no one buys it and the movie bombs the first weekend.

As gays are defined by or rather define themselves by their sexuality first, there’s nothing much storywise to tell, except their “love life!”

I never liked Spacey. And that was before he was forced to out himself.

It is an overreaction to a guy grabbing your penis?
