Blind Item- Years ago, an up and coming young actor was taken advantage of by an A-List actor

Hugh Jackman and Taron Egerton?

Op, thank you for sharing some gossip, it was way too dry in here. That said, this story is so boring. It is fun to guess the actor and the older actor smart enough to get some right desperate ass, but the victimization of the younger actor is boring.

He’s no victim. He’s just an actor that want to take a shortcut out of the slog of waiting tables and hundreds of failed casting calls. So he sold as and mouth for a career. If he was near me crying about this (if the blind is even real) I’d tell him it sounded like a good trade.

I would of said Tom Holland and RDJ.

Kevin Spacey and Wes Bentley.

Spacey won the Best Actor Award for "American Beauty."

Wes Bentley was in the cast.

Wes had a serious drug problem for about a decade, but has since recovered.

He went on to do American Horror Story, Hunger Games, and then the hit series Yellowstone.

This was so easy!

"would of said" R3

Oh, dear!

Elliot Page

Wes Bentley was so hot in American Beauty.

Wasn't there a scene in the movie where Wes and Kevin's characters had sex?

Was Spacey a top with his boys? I find it a complete waste of time to get hot “straight” actor trade if you aren’t gonna get them to bottom.

I like this answer from the comments:

"Everyone Spacey ever encountered!"

R3 doesn’t make sense. The story says the younger actor battled issues for over a decade after and has since made a comeback. Tom Holland doesn’t fit that bill

R8 ummm not of you like to top. Also a huge power dynamic in topping. Bottoming is submitting. Topping is dominating

R7 you should watch the movie before commenting on it.

No. There was no such sex scene.

Wes Bentley is SO. FUCKING. HOT.

I really, really hope he indulges in man sex.

Wes Bentley isn’t foreign born. So it’s not him. He is from Arkansas.

Yeah, I was wondering about that, R14, but I didn’t know where Bentley is from.

But please can we maybe entertain the idea of Bentley being bisexual just for a moment, as a diversion?

Supposedly Spacey was a mentor to Collin Farrell when he first started his Hollywood career

I don’t doubt poor Wes Bentley is one of Spacey’s victims of sexual assault etc. but I don’t think this is about him.

Is Bentley married? Any gay/bi rumors?

Bentley isn’t gay or bi. He is married. He has a history of drug issues.

Yes to Spacey/Farrell (possibly). If I recall correctly Colin Farrell may have even lived with Kevin Spacey briefly in LA. I believe Spacey spotted Farrell in a play and then suggested him to Joel Schumaker.

R7 no. Wes Bentley’s character is dating/fucking Thora Birch’s character. Thora Birch’s dad is Kevin Spacey, who is obsessed with his daughters best friend. Bentley’s dad thinks his son is gay and sees something through the window that makes him believe Spacey and his (underage teenage) son are fucking, leading to the man killing Spacey

It’s the fun bunch frontman and George C. Lucky ho.

George C. Scott?!!? ^^^

The story says that the A-Lister took the new actor under his wing and got him connections etc. in exchange for his body. He would get the young actor very drunk or high to the point it was easy to get him to do it.

It never states they both actually worked together on a project.

Spacey and Farrell fit the bill.

R23 Nah B I ain’t tryna get sued.

Sometimes blind items feature info that only the industry knows. This rising star is not known to have substances issues. And he not a rising star no more if you get my drift.

From a chatboard a few years ago, when the Spacey shit was hitting the fan and they'd just suspended House of Cards:

"Funny this, cos theres a lad on here who told me stuff about Spacey over 10 years ago. It had to do with Colin Farrell, and the lad knew someone close to Farrell."

Lucky Number, Kevin.

It's wild that Spacey never been the recipient of any sort of justice for any of his creepy shenanigans. He's living wild and free, somewhere, still doing his thing. Evading paparazzi even. How? Where is Kevin Spacey?

Everyone who was to testify against him ended up dead.

Did he really break any laws, though? Like, LAW laws, not “moral” laws.

Colin has a big beautiful cock. I'm sure KS chased after it

R16 nailed it!

It’s Colin Farrell / Bruce Willis ???

Bruce Willis wasn’t his mentor. So no.

Bruce Willis and Aaron Carter? Perhaps. But I told y’all who it is.

FOREIGN BORN ACTOR. That would automatically let you know it isn’t fucking Aaron Carter

R26 he's dead?

Bruce Willis fought to get Colin Farrell hired for “Hart’s War.” But Willis has never been nominated for an Oscar, so…

R39 false. He didn’t fight for him at all.

The check is in the mail, OKAY?

I agree that it's most likely Spacey/Farrell but for some reason I keep thinking of Josh Hartnett. I don't know who led him down the primrose path. I do know he was a meth head for at least ten years in the wilderness but I also think he's American corn-fed.

Just out of curiosity, what drove Hartnett to the drugs? Was there a mentor on the scene?

Because a lot of the Spacey stories are overblown. Sorry not sorry. Listen I am a Christian and don’t believe anyone in true position of power should leverage a lesser in same field and work area for sex. But I am of the believe post pubescent minors know what they want and can make sexual decisions. I don’t care, sue me. This applies for gays and straights. This puritanical superficial bullshit will be seen for what it is in the future. Is Spacey a creep, yes. A monster? No.

I’ve seen people say Josh Hartnett on TikTok. Hartnett is born and raised in Minnesota.

I immediately thought of Spacey when reading the OP post.

[quote]It’s the fun bunch frontman and George C.

It was Art Monk?!?

George Clooney and Mark Wahlberg both broke out around the same time.

Actually, Marky Mark became a household name before George Clooney.

John Travolta was in Saturday Night Fever, and the soundtrack featured the Bee Gees (BG).

R47 No he did not.

[quote]BG would take every opportunity to get our young actor drunk or do some type of drug to make him more receptive.

So anal. Which foreign young actor would be most likely to have a receptive pooper when coaxed?

The fact that a publicist was sent to this thread speaks volumes. I’m gone.

R49 yes, he did.

R51 good. The thread will be better off without you.

R43, it doesn’t surprise me that you’re a Christian.

Josh Hardnett according AGC Blind Item.

Wasn’t Collin A-list for a moment. I mean damn, he was the lead in the massive “Alexander” movie. It flopped, but he had loads of opportunities. He did have a dip in popularity, going away for a bit, but has coke back.

He’s also a name everyone knows. But I couldn’t see a reason for him to be bitter, he’s had a solid career.

Rose McGowan should emulate Colin Farrell’s sensible approach to such matters

R29 it’s not a crime to trade sex for access. As long as Spacey wasn’t someone’s boss, then it’s legal. And you know what, I’m a town with hundreds of starving actors as hot or hotter than the next, I don’t feel bad for those that accept sex for access.

All of these men know that they are doing and trading. Same for any actress that goes to someone’s hotel room “to talk business”. Pure bullshit, they know what’s up.

R56 the bitterness isn’t over the career, it’s over the man who took advantage of him. Jesus, learn to read.

If you have to get someone drink and high so they are more willing to let you fuck them in the ass then yes, you did something wrong. And while it isn’t illegal to have transactional sex, the person who was not in power almost always ends up feeling taken advantage of and bitter with time.

Kevin Spacey -- at every stage of his career -- would have needed to give me $$$$ to make me "receptive" to his advances. He is an ogre and I am not even really that picky.

I think it’s Josh Hartnett. He’s doing a play for Spacey.

Just a question: has any of these blind items ever turned out to be true?

R63 yes.

[quote] I think it’s Josh Hartnett

He was born in Minnesota.

[quote]It was in a London theatre in 2000 that he first saw Colin Farrell in a play. He was so impressed by the inexperienced Ballykissangel star that he persuaded director Thaddeus O’Sullivan to cast him in Ordinary Decent Criminal the same year.

[quote] He’s no victim. He’s just an actor that want to take a shortcut out of the slog of waiting tables and hundreds of failed casting calls. So he sold as and mouth for a career. If he was near me crying about this (if the blind is even real) I’d tell him it sounded like a good trade.

Thank you for weighing in, Mr. Singer.

[quote] Where is Kevin Spacey?

Last I heard he had been living in Italy.

Why Italy? Lmao

Irish theatre is great.

[quote] Why Italy? Lmao

Why not live in Italy if you can't live in the UK or the US without being shunned on the street?

And why are you laughing your ass off?

He made a film for Franco Nero in Italy, which made me sad. Franco Nero was so fucking hot back in the day.

Farrell definitely fits the substance abuse bill, he went through a massive drinking phase, but most chalked it up his success. I vaguely recall him staggering around with Britney Spears, both looking very bleary eyed.

He brought Britney as his date to a movie premiere and they were fucking at the time

I have always depended on the asses of young strangers.

R68 & r69…I can’t imagine why he would….

It Collie Hardnet and Robbie D Spacecake Jr

Almost sounds like Richard Madden, particularly the part about 'secretive personal life'. And a lot of his fans have remarked about how paranoid, secretive, and reclusive he became in the last decade. But other things in that BI don't sound like him. So, who knows.

Richard Madden and who else? Spacey again?

The age of consent in Italy is 14.

George Burns and Walter Matthau.

Michael Jackson and Macauley Culkin.

As I re-read the BI, it does kind of sound like Farrell, since I don't know that anyone would describe some of the other candidates as "A-". Though from listening to him in interviews, Farrell really does that have that "AA-speak/former addict" thing down so I tend to think that if he had a story like that to tell, he'd tell it. I could see him saying that he was ashamed about it one time, but he's over it now & talks about it as part of his "healing" (or whatever).

Colin Farrell

Kevin Spacey and Jonathan Rhys Meyer

Colin Farrell has a child with a serious disability, that’s the main reason for his depression, he has another child with a different woman too, his personal life isn’t easy, a lot of conflicts and drug abuse because he was too vulnerable. He spoke about his personal issues in an interview, I think stories from the past compared to what he’s living now are pretty irrelevant.

Beautiful soul on that man. More so than any other star I think. I like when he cried about the homeless on some talk show

Nonsense. Farrell's issues predate fathering a child.

Froy was born in Mexico…

Froy is pretty much D-List.

What people will do for fame.

You can't tell me the "young" actor didnt know what was going on. He traded. End of story.

Hollywood....selling themselves to the highest bidder. Corrupt, sleazy, scum of humanity. All of them.

Years ago? Oh yeah, that really narrows it down.
