Armie Hammer’s Hollywood comeback takes a shocking turn

  • Armie Hammer's new film, "Citizen Vigilante," has been widely condemned as racist and xenophobic, and banned in some countries.
  • This marks Hammer's first major role in five years since he faced accusations of rape, sexual misconduct, and cannibalism, all of which he denied.
  • A report claims Hammer is upset about the film's inflammatory nature, with a source stating he was in tears after seeing the final cut, calling it "hateful, disgusting."
  • Hammer reportedly believed the film "leaned toward the right" but was unaware of the full extent of its controversial themes until seeing the final product.
  • Director Uwe Boll has defended the film and its themes, while Hammer previously stated he took the role because it was the only acting job offered to him after his career hiatus.
