US actor Armie Hammer will have a series of allegations against him examined in a new documentary series.
House of Hammer is set to be a three-part Discovery+ series which will also delve into the history of the wealthy American family. Hammer’s career has been in freefall since the emergence of a series of damaging accusations over explicit messages he allegedly sent on social media.
A trailer for the series, released on Wednesday, shows on-camera interviews with two of Hammer’s alleged victims in which they detail some of their alleged abuse. Voice memos and text messages allegedly sent by the actor are also featured in the clip.

In one voice note Hammer, 35, is alleged to have said: “My bet was going to involve showing up at your place and completely tying you up and incapacitating you and being able to do whatever I wanted to every single hole in your body until I was done with you.”
A text message screenshot, also reportedly from the actor, states he is “100% a cannibal”. The documentary was produced by Hammer’s aunt, Casey Hammer.
Following the initial controversy, Hammer stepped down from several film and TV roles, including comedy film Shotgun Wedding opposite Jennifer Lopez, and TV series The Offer, a drama about the making of The Godfather.
Hammer is known for playing the Winklevoss twins in The Social Network and starring opposite Timothee Chalamet in acclaimed drama Call Me by Your Name. He married US TV personality Elizabeth Chambers in May 2010 and the pair share two children.
