Spacey Revives Frank Underwood for Netflix Promo

Kevin Spacey has reprised his infamous 'House of Cards' character, Frank Underwood, in a promotional video for comedian Tim Dillon's new Netflix special, 'I'm Your Mother.' In the video, Spacey's Underwood attempts to blackmail Dillon using DoorDash receipts and compromising photos, only to be humorously thwarted by Dillon's embrace of internet culture. Spacey's appearance is notable given his fall from grace following multiple allegations of sexual misconduct that led to his firing from 'House of Cards' and legal battles, including a $31 million order to pay the show's producers, later reduced to $1 million. Despite being found not liable in a 2022 lawsuit and not guilty in a 2023 UK trial, Spacey's reputation remains tarnished. The promo, which Netflix was reportedly unaware of beforehand, sees Spacey deliver biting lines in character, reflecting on Dillon's relevance in the modern media landscape. Dillon described the collaboration as enjoyable, while Spacey, through Underwood, offers a backhanded endorsement of Dillon's special.
