Actor Kevin Spacey says he is homeless and is living out of Airbnb rentals and hotels after a sexual abuse scandal destroyed his career.
The 66-year-old Academy Award-winner detailed his struggles in a recent interview with The Telegraph, saying he lost his Maryland residence, where he had lived for 12 years, and is no longer a property owner.
“I’m going where the work is,” Spacey told the outlet. “I literally have no home, that’s what I’m attempting to explain.”
The actor has faced multiple sexual misconduct allegations, including a high-profile civil lawsuit from actor Anthony Rapp. A New York jury found him not liable in 2022. Spacey was also charged with nine counts of sexual assault involving four men, citing incidents between 2001 and 2013, but he was acquitted of all charges in 2023. Several other cases were dropped or dismissed.
Despite Spacey never being convicted, his career was destroyed, and he’s been complaining about financial struggles recently.

“The costs over these last seven years have been astronomical,” the actor said. “I’ve had very little coming in and everything going out.”
“You get through it. In weird ways, I feel I’m back to where I first started, which is I just went where the work was,” Spacey added. “Everything is in storage, and I hope at some point, if things continue to improve, that I’ll be able to decide where I want to settle down again.”
The “American Beauty” actor said he just wants to return to acting and is hoping a major Hollywood player steps in to help him relaunch his career.
“We are in touch with some extremely powerful people who want to put me back to work,” Spacey told The Telegraph. “And that will happen in its right time. But I will also say what I think the industry seems to be waiting for is to be given permission – by someone who is in some position of enormous respect and authority.”
“So, my feeling is if Martin Scorsese or Quentin Tarantino call [manager] Evan [Lowenstein] tomorrow, it will be over,” he went on. “I will be incredibly honored and delighted when that level of talent picks up the phone.”
Spacey received a lifetime achievement award at the Cannes Film Festival earlier this year. During his acceptance speech, he said he had “come out the other side of these last few challenging years not angry, not bitter, not resentful, but more present, more loving, more understanding and more forgiving than I ever have been in my life.”
