• Kevin Spacey's representatives told Business Insider that Spacey will "seek evaluation and treatment" following a series of sexual misconduct allegations against him.
• Four men have come forward to accuse Spacey of sexual misconduct.

Actor Kevin Spacey is said to be seeking "treatment" in light of a series of sexual misconduct allegations against him.

"Kevin Spacey is taking the time necessary to seek evaluation and treatment," his representatives said in a statement to Business Insider. "No other information is available at this time."

Following actor Anthony Rapp's allegation that Kevin Spacey made a sexual advance on him at age 14, a number of other men have come forward to accuse the "House of Cards" star of sexual misconduct.

Spacey's subsequent accusers include actor Roberto Cavazos, independent filmmaker Tony Montana, and an anonymous man who described himself as being in a "position of responsibility and authority" in Hollywood.

Last week, Spacey's apology to Rapp sparked criticism when he chose to come out as gay in the same statement.

Following Rapp's accusation, Netflix suspended production on its Spacey-led political drama "House of Cards."
