Once upon a time, Kevin Spacey was considered as one of the finest and respected actors in Hollywood. He was also riding high on the popularity of playing the duplicitous politician in Netflix's House of Cards. Then the #MeToo movement happened and Kevin Spacey's name was brought in for sexually assaulting an 18-year old boy years back. Spacey strangely tried to extricate himself from the controversy by choosing that moment to come out from the closet. Kevin Spacey Sued by Anonymous Masseur for Groping Him.
No one was willing to forgive Spacey, though. He was fired from the film, All The Money In The World, despite having shot all his scenes and they were reshot with Christopher Plummer. He was also booted out from House of Cards final season, with his character being killed offscreen, while Robin Wright, who played his wife, Blaire Underwood, was made the main focus.

Now after months of silence, Kevin Spacey has revealed a new video on Twitter, which is the most bizarre thing you will see today. In the video, he adopts the persona and the Southern accent of Frank Underwood, his character in House of Cards. He is seen rambling about he has been honest with them and that we 'want' him back.
He is heard saying, "I know what you want. Oh sure, they may have tried to separate us, but what we have is too strong, too powerful. After all, we shared everything, you and I. I told you my deepest, darkest secrets. I showed you exactly what people are capable of. I shocked you with my honestly, but mostly I challenged you and made you think. And you trusted me, even though you knew you shouldn't. So we're not done, no matter what anyone says. And besides, I know what you want. You want me back."

Towards the end of the video, Spacey is heard saying, "My confidence grows each day that soon enough, you will know the full truth,. Wait a minute, now that I think of it, you never actually saw me die, did you? Conclusions can be so deceiving."
Since it is obvious that he is referring to his offscreen death in House of Cards, people are assuming that he is making a return to the series. However, when The Hollywood Reporter contacted Netflix about this, they refused to comment on it.
