Stephen Baldwin shed light on his iconic role in "The Usual Suspects" and shared insights on co-star Kevin Spacey's fall from grace. Reflecting on the film's unexpected impact, Baldwin revealed that director Bryan Singer had already cast actors like Chazz Palminteri, Pete Postlethwaite, and Kevin Spacey before he joined. Recounting his audition, Baldwin humorously tested Singer's directorial prowess by challenging his authority, only to be impressed by Singer’s control over his vision, a testament to his genius.
Baldwin also debunked a long-standing myth about his character's memorable police lineup scene, clarifying it stemmed from an unrehearsed exchange preserved in the final cut. On the topic of Kevin Spacey, Baldwin acknowledged Spacey as one of the greatest American actors despite recent controversies. Addressing the repercussions of Spacey's cancellation, Baldwin expressed incredulity at Spacey's reported financial struggles, pointing to the relentless impact of allegations on public figures.
