Rachel Brosnahan speaks about her House of Cards co-star Kevin Spacey
Rachel Brosnahan got her acting career break with the Netflix show House of Cards. The show is a political thriller created by Beau Willimon. It is based on the 1989 novel by Michael Dobbs and an adaptation of the 1990 BBC series by Andrew Davies. The cast comprised Kevin Spacey in the lead role, along with Robin Wright, Michael Kelly, Jayne Atkinson, Kate Mara, Sandrine Holt, Rachel Brosnahan, Sebastian Arcelus, and others.
Brosnahan was a part of the show from seasons one to three. She played the role of a sex worker Rachel Posner in the show and left the series in 2015.
The lead actor Kevin Spacey was accused of sexual misconduct by Anthony Rapp. After Rapp, numerous others came forward to accuse Spacey of sexually inappropriate behavior. Due to the controversy, the actor was fired, and Netflix dismissed the series altogether.
Brosnahan shared in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter,
“I think that it was handled beautifully. They took swift action, and I so look forward to the future of the show with Robin Wright front-and-center.”
In conversation with Vulture, she revealed that she never shared a scene with Spacey. She said,
“Well, the interesting thing about that show, as it relates to me, is that I never had a scene with Kevin,” she said. “We’ve only met two or three times, so I have no personal opinion about Kevin that has been changed.”
House of Cards series was canceled after season 6 of the series.
