Armie Hammer reveals that his acting career is slowly rejuvenating.

American actor, Armie Hammer has shared insights into his return to the film industry following sexual assault allegations that derailed his career in 2021. Speaking on the Your Mom’s House podcast, the Call Me By Your Name actor revealed his career is regaining momentum, saying, “I’m turning down jobs. My dance card is getting pretty full.” Hammer faced accusations of sexual assault and sharing violent fantasies, which he denies, though he admitted to infidelity during his marriage to Elizabeth Chambers. Hollywood largely ostracized him, leading to job losses and his agency dropping him. Now living modestly and hosting a podcast, Hammer says industry sentiment is shifting. “The worm is turning,” he said, adding that rejecting his first job offer after years of struggles was “the best feeling.” Reflecting on the scandal, he admitted feeling alienated by his public image, saying, “I think, subconsciously, I wanted to get caught.”
