In what was a different Christmas message than in years past, actor Kevin Spacey took to his YouTube channel, joined by former Fox News political commentator Tucker Carlson, to tell viewers that he’s to credit for Netflix’s success.

It was on Christmas Eve that Mr. Spacey, 64, in character as Frank Underwood from his former role on Netflix’s “House of Cards,” posted the seven-minute video, which had him being interviewed by Mr. Carlson. The clip was also published by Mr. Carlson on his various accounts on the social media platform X.
