Embattled actor Kevin Spacey visited Israel on Sunday, touring the communities that were hit hardest by the Hamas terror attack of October 7, and meeting with a friend’s daughter, who is serving in the Israel Defense Forces (IDF).
The Hollywood Reporter reported:
Spacey was seen in photos with Libby Alon, chief international news editor for Now14Israel, posted on Monday. Multiple outlets reported he was there to visit a friend’s daughter, who is serving in the Israeli army, and toured communities impacted by Hamas’ Oct. 7 attacks.
The House of Cards actor was joined by pro-Israel British journalist Douglas Murray, who makes regular trips to the country.
Spacey was aqcuitted of nine counts of sexual assault against four young men in the United Kingdom, but still faces civil suit and social marginalization within Hollywood. He has said that he is broke and unable to pay his legal debts.
The career of the Academy Award-winning actor, who helped launched the age of streaming television with House of Cards, has been completely derailed, though he does have a few supporters in Hollywood who support his return to acting.
Spacey backed independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. in the 2024 presidential elections. A fellow outsider with a controversial personal history, Kennedy ended up joining forces with Donald Trump, and is now Trump’s nominee to lead the Department of Health and Human Services next year.
