The Oscar-winning actor is now facing a total of 12 sexual offences against four men.

In July, he denied five allegations relating to three men, who are now in their 30s and 40s, when he appeared at London’s Old Bailey.

The trial is due to begin in June

Mr Spacey replied “not guilty” to each of the seven charges as they were formally put to him.

He appeared under his full name Kevin Spacey Fowler.
