House Of Cards

KEVIN SPACEY THOUGHT HE COULD DO NO WRONG

Hollywood has a solid history of tolerating workplace sexual harassment and enabling important predators, so any change for the better is delightful. As star and executive Producer, Kevin Spacey no doubt figured he could get away with that behavior on the House of Cards set because none of the young male crew members he preyed upon wanted to go on the record -for fear of being blackballed. Finally, ONE brave guy talked and the resulting investigation got Spacey fired and taken to court by the MRC entertainment company. Spacey was sued for revenue lost after he left the show and attorney fees, and he just LOST and the judge says he has to pay almost 31 million dollars to MRC! Hopefully this will motivate egotistical actors and executives to control themselves…

Michael Chiklis isn’t ALWAYS the hard guy he played on “The Shield.” Here he’s just a dad strolling in Beverly Hills with his wife Michelle and two daughters Autumn and Odessa. Michael has been developing a series called “House of Cards” at FX about a ponzi scheme and since the Bernie Madoff scandal broke, the idea is red hot. Great timing – but so far Michael wants to produce and not star.
