However, after the scandal, all of his scenes will be reshot with Christopher Plummer playing the role instead. An odd choice, given that Plummer is English and 30 years older than Spacey. Will he also replace Spacey in House of Cards?
Probably not, but can we, as a society accept different actors playing the same roles? We can do it with James Bond and we can do it with Jack Ryan and we can do it with the Doctor. The only reason actors are protected by their fame is cause we, as a people, can't accept anyone else playing THAT role. I say FUCK IT. If I find out that Robert Downey, Jr. fucked a 14 year old girl, I'm not going to lament about how Iron Man was better with Robert Downey Jr. as Iron Man. I'm just going to accept the new Iron Man.
