Armie Hammer Admits ‘I Was a Dick’ and Addresses the Cannibal Text Messages: ‘Did I Ever Have Any Intention of Cutting Anything Off of Anyone? No’


Armie Hammer is addressing the allegations that derailed his Hollywood career four years ago.

“People were sort of like my bags of dope with skin on them,” Hammer said on “ The Louis Theroux Podcast.” “You make me feel amazing, so I’m going to throw everything into this, and we’re going to have this whirlwind romance, and I’m going to whisk you up, and we’re going to go on trips, and we’re going to do all this, and then I’m going to bring you home and I’m going to go, ‘Thanks so much, that was great,’ and then I’m going to move on.” Hammer also addressed the infamous text message in which the “Call Me by Your Name” star writes “I am 100% a cannibal.” Hammer quickly pointed out that the texts were “digitally altered” to not include the other side of the exchange, adding that it “could have been a very funny conversation between two people who were joking and pushing each other and egging each other on.” But, during a January appearance on Christina Pazsitzy and Tom Segura’s “Your Mom’s House” podcast, the 38-year-old actor said his career is making a comeback.
