Is Kevin Spacey Facing Homelessness? How Hollywood's Freeze-Out Hit His Finances

Kevin Spacey says he’s effectively homeless—bouncing between hotels and Airbnbs as he chases work—and has “literally no home,” RadarOnline reports, amid the long fallout from sexual misconduct allegations.

Kevin Spacey says he is essentially living out of a suitcase and trying to claw his way back to work. He is also publicly pushing for the full release of the Epstein files. So yes, this one has a lot going on.

Spacey says he has no home right now

Spacey, 66, told The Telegraph he lost his house because the legal and PR costs piled up over the last seven years while the income dried up. He says bankruptcy was on the table but never actually happened. Financially, his words: not great.

"I am living in hotels, I am living in Airbnbs, I am going where the work is. I literally have no home."

He is trying to stay optimistic, saying he feels like he is back at the start of his career: go where the work is, keep moving.

How we got here

Spacey’s career cratered in 2017 after Anthony Rapp accused him of making an unwanted sexual advance in 1986. More men came forward, and Spacey was fired from 'House of Cards' and effectively frozen out of Hollywood.

• 2017: Anthony Rapp goes public with his allegation dating back to 1986; additional accusers follow.
• 2018–2019: Criminal cases tied to different allegations are dropped.
• 2022: A New York jury finds in Spacey’s favor in Rapp’s civil lawsuit.
• 2023: A UK jury acquits Spacey of multiple charges in London.

The comeback pitch

Spacey has compared his industry exile to the 1950s blacklist era and is now angling for a high-profile lifeline. The dream scenario he laid out: Martin Scorsese or Quentin Tarantino calls his manager Evan Lowenstein and the ice thaws overnight. It is a very specific wish list, and he says he genuinely believes it will happen.

While waiting for that phone call, he has been performing a one-man show overseas, 'Songs & Stories,' where he covers standards like 'That’s Life' and 'The Very Thought of You.' VIP packages have reportedly gone up to $1,400, and the show debuted in Cyprus with more European dates being discussed. He says there are powerful backers who want to put him back to work, but the industry is waiting for someone widely respected to essentially give permission first.

The Epstein-files angle

Spacey also jumped into the Epstein-document drama on X, writing that all the files should be released: "Release the Epstein files. All of them. For those of us with nothing to fear, the truth can’t come soon enough. I hate to make this about me — but the media already has."

His name appeared in unsealed documents connected to a January 2024 lawsuit involving Ghislaine Maxwell, alongside a grab bag of high-profile names including Bill Clinton, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Cameron Diaz. Spacey’s explanation in interviews and on 'Piers Morgan Uncensored': he joined Clinton on a humanitarian trip to Africa and later visited Buckingham Palace with Prince Andrew, with Epstein and Maxwell present at points — but he says he never went to Epstein’s island and did not have a personal relationship with either of them.

Spacey’s position, in his own words: "I have no relationship with her. I had no relationship with him. He’s not my friend, I’m not a confidante, I’ve never spent any time with him."

Bottom line

Spacey says he is effectively nomadic and still in a financial hole, but he is betting that one A-list director can flip the switch on his comeback. In the meantime, he is taking the show on the road and loudly calling for transparency on the Epstein front. Where you land on all of this probably depends on whether you think the industry ever makes that call.
