The most famous case of deleting an actor from the film took place in 2017. Kevin Spacey, who became famous for legendary films such as American Beauty, World According to Proto, LA Top Secret or Usual Suspects, then disappeared from the film All the Money in the World, which was completely done. He was replaced by Christopher Plummer.

Spacey’s career took a surprising turn when he was accused of sexual harassment by actor Anthony Rapp. It was an incident that allegedly happened 30 years ago.

Additional charges were added later. To date, nothing has been officially proven and Spacey has not been convicted of anything.
