The Oscar-winning star, 63, is charged with sexually assaulting four men in charges dating back as far as 22 years.
Spacey today arrived at Southwark Crown Court where his trial is expected to open.
The actor wore a grey suit and yellow tie as he made his way into the building.

The alleged offences against four men took place in London and Gloucestershire.
