American actor Kevin Spacey must pay almost $31 million to the producer of House of Cards, from which he was fired amid a flurry of misconduct allegations, according to a Los Angeles judge ruling this Thursday.

It marks the latest legal loss for the disgraced Hollywood star in his lengthy legal battle against MRC, the production company responsible for the famous streaming hit.

spacey starred in five seasons “House of cards” until several complaints of sexual harassment of colleagues were made public in the media.

“MRC was not aware of this behavior on the part spacey with the cast or crew of the show,” one of the producer’s court documents says.

The production company claims that after complaints of harassment and sexual harassment in 2017, it suspended the actor from work and ordered an investigation that found that “spacey violated the provisions of the applicable and implementing industrial agreements that set standards of behavior in the workplace, including violating the MRC’s policy on harassment.”

“ROCKING HOUSE” DAMAGED

In October 2020, the arbitrator ruled that spacey had to pay $29.5 million plus hospitality to the production company, which was forced to remake the series due to the departure of Frank Underwood, the show’s main character, played by the two-time Oscar winner.

The series of palace intrigues was reduced and ended. The actor applied to the court with a request to invalidate the millionaire’s compensation, citing the fact that the arbitrator made procedural violations in assessing the damage. However, Judge Mel Red Ryokana of the Los Angeles Superior Court upheld the decision, ordering the actor to pay compensation.
