Actor Kevin Spacey granted bail on 4 counts of sexual assault in London court
Academy Award winning actor Kevin Spacey on Thursday made his first appearance before a London court on charges he sexual assaulted three men between 2005 and 2013.
The "House of Cards" star has not entered a formal plea against the men, who one alleged Spacey engaged in penetrative sexual activity without consent.
In the procedural hearing Thursday he stated only his name, date of birth and London address.
Deputy Chief Magistrate Tan Ikram allowed Spacey unconditional bail until July 14, when he'll appear for his plea hearing.
The 62-year-old Spacey was on the allegation last month, at which time promised to fly from the U.S. to London to "prove my innocence" before the court.
His alleged incident occurred charges in the United Kingdom in March 2005, August 2008 and April 2013.
He was in charge of London’s Old Vic theater from 2004 to 2015. The men are now in their 30s and 40s.
Spacey's acting career abruptly crumbled in connection with a civil suit filed against him in 2016 for allegedly groping a young man in a Nantucket bar. The suit was dropped several years later.
The actor returned to acting earlier this year where he appeared in a Croatian film released in May.
