Spacey was cut from the Netflix show following sexual harassment allegations - something the production company said led to it losing millions in revenue.

Actor Kevin Spacey and his production companies have been ordered to pay the makers of House Of Cards almost $31m to make up for losses incurred by his sacking for sexually harassing crew members.

The ruling confirms a decision by a private arbitrator last year in favour of the production companies behind the popular Netflix series.Back in November, the Hollywood actor was ordered to pay the sum to independent production company Media Rights Capital following"explosive" allegations of sexual misconduct involving young crew members working on the show.Advertisement

The original filings from MRC, obtained by the PA agency, detailed how Spacey was cut from House Of Cards following allegations he was"systematically preying upon, sexually harassing, and groping young men that he had worked with throughout his career on film, television, and theatre projects". The arbitrator concluded Spacey had repeatedly breached contractual obligations to provide services"in a professional manner" which were"consistent with reasonable directions, practices and policies" - including its anti-harassment policies.
