Armie Hammer's father's bizarre dying wish involving Tom Cruise is finally revealed 3 years after his death
Armie Hammer's oil tycoon father Michael Hammer died of cancer in late 2022. But before the 67-year-old succumbed to the disease, he made his dying wish known.
The report that Cruise was one of Hammer's top choices arrives as the actor's new film Mission: Impossible — The Final Reckoning has been swamped for two weeks in a row by Disney's live-action remake of Lilo & Stitch. Best known for his ties to family firm Occidental Petroleum, Michael reportedly inherited a $40 million fortune from his late grandfather, industrialist Armand Hammer, who ran the company until his death in 1990. His death came just months after Armie — once among Hollywood's A-list elite until a cannibalism scandal unraveled his career — traveled back to Los Angeles from the Cayman Islands, where he was spotted selling timeshares at a resort amid his fall from grace.
