What is the new Kevin Spacey documentary about?

The new Kevin Spacey documentary titled Spacey Unmasked revolves around the rise and fall of one of the biggest stars in Hollywood. It will do so with the help of Spacey’s brother, the victims of his abuse, journalists, and others who are aware of his “pattern of inappropriate behavior” that spans several years.

The trailer for the documentary sets the tone for the upcoming series by divulging into never seen or heard before details about Spacey's life. For instance, the trailer opens with one of Spacey's famous quotes which goes as such—

"I’ve always believed that the longer an actor remains in the shadows, then the characters emerge.”

The makers of the docuseries have intelligently used this quote to hint at his own journey as an actor in the industry. This line from Spacey is followed by a line by another person in the trailer who highlights how Spacey misused his position in several ways. He says—

"When you’re in a position like that — power, celebrity, money — you have to be better than the average person because you’re capable of so much damage. He wasn’t responsible with that power, he used it like a weapon.”

Kevin Spacey does not seem to be very happy about the fact that a docuseries is being made about him. He explicitly vocalized his thoughts against the upcoming series on X. Attacking Channel 4 for tarnishing his image, Spacey said that he would "not sit back" and be attacked by its "one-sided documentary" about him.
