Kevin Spacey is back for his annual Christmas-time Frank Underwood shtick, only this time he has big news … teasing a presidential run, and breaking it to Tucker Carlson.
The actor showed up in TC’s latest X interview, which just dropped Sunday — and yes, he’s completely in character as his former “House of Cards” anti-hero for the 7-minute video. While he never outright says he’s running for POTUS, he certainly suggests he just might.
Tucker Carlson Network
Watch … Spacey (as Underwood) says he’s not above stepping into the race at this late hour, explaining that he believes the country needs someone like him during this dark time.
Tucker asks him directly if he’s running, but KS stops short of outright committing to it.
Per usual, it’s very bizarre … but it is consistent, which we suppose he gets some kudos for. Spacey’s been doing this whole Frank Underwood thing for a few years now — ever since he was effectively canceled during the #MeToo movement — and each year, it’s weird as hell.
Remember, Spacey’s role was nixed from the final season of ‘HOC’ amid his scandal … and he’s been trying to mount a comeback ever since, with not very much mainstream success.
He’s done a good job of beating criminal and civil cases brought against him — both here in the States and abroad — but he continues to fight lawsuits from accusers of his. In the meantime, he’s obviously still very committed to acting … albeit, in a smaller spotlight now.
