Entertainment | Kevin Spacey Guy Pearce Grabs Headlines After Spacey Comment Says actor was 'handsy' on set of 'LA Confidential' By Newser Editors Posted Jul 3, 2018 11:47 AM CDT Copied Guy Pearce speaks at the "When We Rise" panel at the Disney/ABC portion of the 2017 Winter Television Critics Association press tour on Tuesday, Jan. 10, 2017, in Pasadena, Calif. (Photo by Rich Fury/Invision/AP) All has been mostly quiet on the Kevin Spacey front, but a few sentences from a high-profile actor has briefly changed that. The Guardian reports that Guy Pearce was asked about working with Spacey during an interview for an Australian talk show called Interview; the two had worked together on 1997's LA Confidential. His response: "Yeah ... yeah. Tough one to talk about at the moment. Amazing actor; incredible actor. Mmm. Slightly difficult time with Kevin, yeah. He’s a handsy guy. Thankfully, I was 29 and not 14." The Guardian's take: Pearce "suggests he was groped." (Spacey isn't entirely off movie screens.)
