Kevin Spacey's latest film Billionaire Boys Club releases in just 10 theaters nationwide. The movie is the actor's first film to come out after claims of sexual misconduct against him broke out late last year.

Directed by James Cox, Billionaire Boys Club is a remake of the 1987 miniseries of the same name starring Judd Nelson, who also appears in the contemporary film. Based on the real-life Billionaire Boys Club in Southern California during the 1980s, the movie follows a group of wealthy boys plotting to quickly get richer with a Ponzi scheme. Spacey plays Ron Levin in the narrative, a Beverly Hills notorious high rolled who gets entangled with the group.

The project boasts a cast of mainly rising stars such as Taron Egerton, Emma Roberts, Jeremy Irvine, Suki Waterhouse, Billie Lourd, and Ansel Elgort, who previously worked with Spacey in Edgar Wright's its video-on-demand release in July. It also quietly hit a handful of international markets but with little to no marketing.

Allegations against Spacey started late last year when with Christopher Plummer replacing him.

It's curious why Billionaire Boys Club didn't also commission reshoots to recast Spacey - a move that could have salvaged the movie from its current situation. This would've actually been easier to pull off compared to All the Money in the World, which was under extreme time pressure to be ready in time for awards season last year. While money could have been a bigger issue considering it's coming from an indie distributor, Vertical Entertainment, maybe spending a bit more to replace Spacey would've been worth it as they not only would've been able to traditionally release the film, they would've been able to properly promote it.
