Kevin Spacey Reaches Confidential Settlement With Three Accusers, Halting U.K. Civil Case

A judge has paused the October High Court case under a confidential schedule.

Overview

  • The High Court proceedings slated for October were frozen on March 13 after the parties agreed terms, according to a court order cited by the Press Association.
  • Two claimants remain anonymous under U.K. privacy rules, while actor Ruari Cannon has identified himself.
  • Cannon alleges he was groped at a 2013 post‑performance party at London’s Old Vic, an accusation Spacey denies.
  • Two of the civil claimants had also been complainants in the criminal case in which Spacey was acquitted of nine charges in 2023.
  • The alleged incidents date from 2000 to 2013 and the settlement’s terms were not disclosed.
