Kevin Spacey asks judge to axe Anthony Rapp’s sex abuse suit

Kevin Spacey (PA).

Kevin Spacey has asked a judge to throw out actor Anthony Rapp’s sex abuse lawsuit, saying through his lawyers allegations that he abused the then-teenager at a 1980s party are false.

The lawyers wrote in papers filed in Manhattan federal court that the alleged events Rapp described never occurred. Rapp has appeared in Rent on Broadway and in Star Trek: Discovery on television.
