Armie Hammer is once again making headlines, this time with another shocking confession about his past. The Call Me by Your Name actor, who has been at the center of multiple controversies, opened up on The Louis Theroux Podcast about eating an animal’s raw heart as part of a hunting ritual. This revelation comes years after he was accused of having cannibalistic fantasies, a claim he has continuously denied.
Hammer’s Hunting Tradition: A Misunderstood Act?
During the podcast, Hammer, 38, described a hunting expedition in which he participated in a male rite of passage—taking a bite of an animal’s still-warm heart.
“You don’t eat the whole heart,” Hammer clarified. “One of the traditions is you take a bite out of the heart.”
According to Hammer, his friends encouraged him to take part in the ritual, something he described as a hyper-masculine tradition among hunters. However, given his past accusations, this revelation immediately sparked conversation online.
Hammer was quick to clarify:
“It was not for the purpose of any cannibalism or any sexual gratification.”
Despite addressing the controversy, some fans remain skeptical, linking this latest confession to the disturbing cannibalism allegations that surfaced in 2021.
Addressing the Cannibalism Allegations
Hammer was accused of sending explicit messages to former partners detailing disturbing fantasies, including claims of wanting to eat parts of their bodies. These allegations were explored in the 2022 documentary House of Hammer, which featured testimonies from two of his ex-girlfriends, Courtney Vucekovich and Julia Morrison.
However, Hammer firmly denied ever engaging in any such acts:
“You know what you have to do to actually be a cannibal? You have to actually eat human flesh. So no.”
While Hammer continues to push back against these claims, the allegations severely impacted his career, leading to multiple dropped projects and his exit from Hollywood’s spotlight.
Toxic Relationship Confessions: "I Was a D*"**
In addition to addressing his hunting ritual, Hammer also made startling admissions about his past relationships. He confessed to treating romantic partners poorly, describing his behavior as selfish and emotionally reckless.
“People were sort of like my bags of dope with skin on them.”
He admitted to love-bombing women—showering them with affection and extravagant gestures before abruptly moving on.
“You make me feel amazing, so I'm gonna throw everything into this, and we're gonna have this whirlwind romance… and then I'm gonna bring you home and go, 'Thanks so much, that was great,' and then I'm gonna move on.”
Hammer acknowledged that he left many of his exes feeling hurt and angry at his behavior.
“Is it a****** behavior? Absolutely. Does it make me a d***? Absolutely. Like, I have no problem admitting that: I was a d***. But that’s not illegal.”
While he remains adamant that he did nothing criminal, these admissions have reignited discussions about his past actions and the power dynamics in his relationships.
From Scandal to Satire: "Kannibal Ken" & His Hollywood Future
In 2023, Hammer shocked fans once again by mocking the cannibal allegations in Georgie Leahy’s music video Typical Squeeze, where he played a character named “Kannibal Ken.”
The video, which featured Hammer embracing the dark humor surrounding his scandal, raised eyebrows. Some fans saw it as an attempt to reclaim his image, while others felt it was in poor taste.
Despite these efforts, Hammer’s Hollywood comeback remains uncertain. Once a rising star, he has lost major roles, and his former A-list status seems out of reach.
What’s Next for Armie Hammer?
With these latest revelations, Hammer is once again in the public eye—but whether this will help or hurt his image remains to be seen. His candid confessions show a level of self-awareness, but they also revive painful discussions about his past.
