Kevin Spacey Photobomb: Actor Surprised Tourist by Jumping in Picture
Kevin Spacey is taking over the "photobomb." While taking a jog in Boston recently, the actor decided to step in to a tourist's picture.
The "House of Cards" actor was jogging through Boston Public Garden on a jog when he noticed a young girl posing for a photo in front of the George Washington monument. But instead of running on past her, Spacey decided to interfere in the picture and yell "this is a photobomb!" before running on his way, Christina Sander said during a recent interview.
"We were walking through Boston Common in the afternoon and were actually on our way back to get dinner when my friend, Ben Smith (who took the photo), asked me to pose in front of the statue," she told The Boston Magazine. He took a picture, and then I noticed someone running directly toward me. As he [came] closer, I realized it was Kevin Spacey. He stopped right next to me, posed and yelled 'This is a photobomb!'"

Sanders explained that her face in the photo, which depicts a wide opened mouth, is not because she was afraid. Instead, she claims the actor took her breath away- quite literally.
"I know it looks like I'm screaming in the photo, but I actually think I stopped breathing for a few seconds," she said adding that the actor didn't pause for long. "And then he just jogged on, looking back 10 meters down the road and [waving] at me."
Sanders said she was sure about who the actor was because he stars in one of her favorite films.
"I was sure it was Kevin Spacey. I'm a big fan, I think I've watched American Beauty 50 times. I'd like to think I'd be able to recognize him anywhere," she admitted. "But it was all so surreal that I had to check the camera several times afterward to make sure."
Sanders said it was a true "starstruck" moment.
