Netflix is through with Kevin Spacey, but it's not clear what happens to "House of Cards."
Days after a BuzzFeed News report detailed actor Anthony Rapp's allegations about Spacey's aggressive, unwanted advances upon him when he was only 14, eight people associated with the Netflix political drama told CNN the star had demonstrated "toxic" and "predatory" behavior.
Now Netflix says in a statement to Deadline it "will not be involved with any further production of 'House of Cards' that includes Kevin Spacey" and has canned plans for a separate movie project. The series' producing company said in a statement that Spacey is "suspended" and they're trying to figure out a path forward. Variety reports that producers are considering a narrative where Frank Underwood dies (is there any other tenable possibility?)
