After being acquitted of sexually assaulting four men in a UK court in July of last year, Kevin Spacey re-enters the Hollywood scene.
The trailer for director Michael Zaiko Hall’s “Peter Five Eight,” featuring Kevin Spacey, Rebecca De Mornay, Jet Jandreau, and Jake Webber, debuted on Tuesday. This film signals Kevin’s return following his clearance in a UK court last July on charges of sexually assaulting four men. In the trailer, he portrays a hitman, marking his comeback role.
In the trailer, Kevin’s character Peter is depicted disposing of a body, holding a woman at knifepoint, and describing himself as a ‘fallen soul.’ It unveils his mission to infiltrate a small town, under orders from his boss, to assassinate a real estate agent harboring a dark secret.
Additionally, a brief, provocative scene shows him spending the night with Rebecca’s Brenda, followed by capturing photos of her with Jet’s Sam.
However, the plot thickens when a mysterious caller instructs Peter to ‘make it messy.’ Furthermore, it hints at Sam’s involvement in dubious activities.
