Kevin Spacey in Peter Five Eight

Invincible/Everett Collection

Kevin Spacey is back with a movie. If you missed it, you’re not the only one.

Director Michael Zaiko Hall’s Peter Five Eight is a dark comedy/thriller about a young woman who moves to a small town to hide from her secret past. Released in March, it is now available on streaming services. It marks Spacey’s first lead role in an American movie in seven years, since allegations of sexual misconduct derailed his career.
