Credits roll on Spacey TV show
NEW YORK - The fallout facing Kevin Spacey widened on Monday following an accusation that he allegedly made sexual advances toward a teenage boy, with Netflix pulling the plug on his hit show House of Cards and "deeply troubled" producers of the political thriller arriving on set to comfort cast mates.
Executives from Netflix and the show's producer, Media Rights Capital, said they arrived in Baltimore, where the show is shot, on Monday afternoon to make sure actors and crew "continue to feel safe and supported". Spacey was not scheduled to be on set.
Though the decision to end the series was announced on Monday, the decision to end the series was made several months ago, according to a person with knowledge of the situation who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the decision.
