Kevin Spacey must pay House of Cards producer MRC nearly $31 million for alleged sexual misconduct behind the scenes of the Netflix show. Spacey was cut from the series after allegations surfaced he sexually preyed on young men.
The accusations, which included the alleged groping of a production assistant, caused MRC to conduct an investigation and ultimately terminate his acting and producing contracts.
The arbitrator found that Spacey’s conduct constituted a material breach of his acting and executive producing agreements.
$29.5 million in damages and the remainder in costs and fees.
