An aspiring actor said he was warned that two-time Oscar winner Kevin Spacey liked young straight men but did not know “at that point he was a predator”, a court heard.

The alleged victim told a police officer he had written a letter to Spacey asking for help, which later turned into the star performing a sex act on him in his flat while he was asleep – a move he said seemed “quite tactical”.
