Suspending the producing the House of Cards
House of Cards is the first series in the Netflix Originals series that the company started in 2013 and included a host of other award winning series such as Stranger Things and 13 Reasons Why.
The series starring Robin Wright, Michael Kelly and Kate Mara, led by Kevin Spacey, of course, who was the reason for the production to be stopped.
That’s because Anthony Rapp, the hero of Star Trek: Discovery, according to BuzzFeed, has sued Kevin Spacey for sexual acts against him at a party when Rapp was 14 years old in 1986.

Spacey did not respond to the matter except with a small exclamation in which he apologized for doing so if he had done so in the first place, saying that he did not remember and that he was drunk at the party saying:
I have a lot of respect and admiration for Anthony Rapp as an actor. I’m beyond horrified to hear his story. I honestly do not remember the encounter; it would have been over 30 years ago. But if I did behave then as he describes, I owe him the sincerest apology for what would have been deeply inappropriate drunken behavior, and I am sorry for the feelings he describes having carried with him all these years.
