Kevin Spacey Attorneys Argue Anthony Rapp is Alleging Sexual Misconduct Because of ‘Narcissistic Tendencies’

Kevin Spacey rested their case on Wednesday, while attempting to paint Anthony Rapp as a narcissist who is bringing a $40 million sexual misconduct lawsuit against the Oscar-winning actor in order to draw attention to himself. Rapp only wanted to attend a “highly publicized hearing with media attention,” Spacey’s attorney Chase Scolnick asserted at one point. To push that line of attack, Scolnick grilled forensic psychiatrist Alexander Bardey about Rapp’s emotional state. He claimed the actor was attention-seeking and showed no signs of post-traumatic stress disorder, citing the fact that Rapp told friends about the encounter with Spacey over the years, but never revealed the incident to his therapist.

Kevin Spacey Accuser Anthony Rapp Cross-Examined Over Friend’s Contrary Timeline

Anthony Rapp, the “Rent” and “Star Trek: Discovery” actor suing Kevin Spacey for an alleged sexual assault from 36 years ago, was fiercely cross-examined Wednesday by defense lawyers who drilled down on inconsistencies between Rapp’s version of the night in question, and the deposition of his then-friend.Lawyers for Spacey also questioned Rapp’s motivations for suing, and emphasized that Spacey never said anything about sex, and did not try to remove Rapp’s clothes or touch him sexually during the 1986 encounter, according to pool reports from the New York civil trial.Rapp has repeatedly said Spacey assaulted him after a party at his apartment, when Rapp was an ascending 14-year-old actor and 26-year-old Spacey was breaking out on Broadway. Rapp says a “drunk, swaying” Spacey swept him up like a groom “carrying a bride over a threshold” and laid him on a bed, pinning him and forcing him to escape by squirming away.Rapp’s friend, in his late teens the time, had said in his own deposition that the night in question began backstage after Spacey’s performance, moved to a nightclub, and ended at an afterparty at Spacey’s Manhattan apartment, where the friend says he was also sexually propositioned by the older actor.

Kevin Spacey’s accuser, Anthony Rapp, grilled at trial

Actor Kevin Spacey’s accuser, Anthony Rapp, was grilled by the defense Tuesday during a civil trial in Manhattan federal court.  Rapp, who accuses the fellow actor of sexually assaulting him when Rapp was 14 in 1986, admitted on the stand that there are flaws to his story. While the accuser remembers — and has testified — that the incident happened in a bedroom at Spacey’s Upper East Side apartment in Manhattan, Spacey's attorney, Jennifer Keller, got Rapp to admit "it is possible" there was no bedroom and that Spacey actually lived in a studio.  The defense is trying to show the jury that Rapp may be confusing fiction with reality.  Jurors watched a scene from the 1986’s Broadway play "Precious Sons," in which Ed Harris starred as Rapp’s father.  Kevin Spacey's defense team is trying to argue that Rapp is confusing fiction with reality because Rapp starred in a Broadway play in which his character's drunk father confuses him for his wife and climbs on top of him.

But Rapp said he felt compelled to watch the movies because, as an actor, “I felt it was part of my job to see them.“As a fellow actor, I thought I had to do my best to get over it,” Rapp said.

Kevin Spacey Accuser Anthony Rapp Says Watching Actor Seduce Teenager in ‘American Beauty’ Was ‘Unpleasantly Familiar’

Anthony Rapp said watching Kevin Spacey play a suburban dad obsessed with a teenage cheerleader in “American Beauty” was a disturbing reminder of his own traumatic experience with the Oscar-winning actor. The two men are locked in a courtroom battle over Rapp’s $40 million civil lawsuit, in which he alleges that Spacey made unwanted sexual advances when Rapp was 14 years old and Spacey was 26. Watching Spacey as Lester Burnham ogling his high school age daughter’s best friend was “unpleasantly familiar,” Rapp said while taking the stand in New York City on Tuesday. “American Beauty” was the last film of Spacey’s that he watched. Rapp says his alleged encounter with Spacey took place in 1986, but he continued watching the actor’s films because “they were by and large very acclaimed” and he “felt it was my duty to do so.”
