Armie Hammer says Hollywood would have the ability to rent actors akin to himself and Kevin Spacey for a “fairly low-cost” worth.
Armie Hammer just lately spoke with Piers Morgan and mentioned Hollywood producers can be “good” to solid actors akin to himself or Kevin Spacey as they’d most likely have the ability to snag them for a “fairly low-cost” worth. Whereas Hollywood is definitely at all times keen to save lots of a buck, I’m unsure I can see that taking place anytime quickly. Hammer was certainly one of Hollywood’s largest upcoming actors, however when a number of ladies got here ahead with sexual assault allegations towards him in 2021 (to not point out these weird cannibalism claims), his profession was over.
“In the event that they had been good, they might get guys like two-time Academy Award-winning actor Kevin Spacey for most likely fairly low-cost proper now, for a superb challenge,” Hammer mentioned. As quickly because the allegations surfaced, the actor was dropped from just about each challenge on his slate, which led to him searching for a number of jobs within the Cayman Islands. However regardless of being “cancelled” and broke, Hammer just lately mentioned that he’s “by no means been happier” in his complete life.
Morgan performed a clip from his interview with Kevin Spacey final month, through which the actor was requested whether or not the #MeToo motion had gone too far. “Effectively, I may say sure, and never simply in my explicit case,” Spacey mentioned. “There have been others that I really feel, they might have been inappropriate, they might have performed one thing that they wished they hadn’t performed, however I didn’t assume that what it was and possibly what they even admitted to was so heinous that they need to have misplaced their profession or their potential to make their livelihood. I feel that’s, that’s too far. However I additionally assume we now have to be conscious that it doesn’t swing again too far within the different route.“
Hammer agreed with Spacey however admitted that actions akin to #MeToo are wanted. “I agree with him. I feel the genesis and origin of this motion was obligatory,” Hammer mentioned. “For an extended, very long time individuals in energy had been in positions to abuse it with no recourse and no fallout, and that’s not OK. I feel the pendulum had swung thus far in that route that it’s most likely anticipated that there be a little bit of an overcorrection.“
Prior to now three years, Hammer has struggled to seek out work within the Cayman Islands. He bought timeshares but in addition utilized to be a drama instructor, a landscaper, and a constructing supervisor, however every time, he received a letter again from the federal government which mentioned, “As a consequence of problems with character, we don’t assume it’s in one of the best curiosity of the neighborhood for this individual to be admitted to the Cayman Islands.“
Whereas Armie Hammer hasn’t labored since Demise on the Nile, Kevin Spacey has appeared in a number of low-budget motion pictures and has discovered supporters in Liam Neeson, Sharon Stone, and others. Will Hollywood ever welcome them again? I suppose time will inform.
