Armie Hammer is speaking out about those cannibal allegations.
The 38-year-old actor, who hasn’t worked in Hollywood for years due to a scandal that erupted in early 2021, just launched a new podcast about putting his life back together.
Armie‘s first guest on The Armie HammerTime Podcast is actor Tom Arnold and he opened up to fans about the focus of the project. He said, “I’ve been gone for the last four years, and now I’m back. You know? What are you gonna do. So it’s going to be a sort of journal, or chronicling, of putting my life back together. I’ll let you into my world a little bit.”
Armie and Tom chatted about the rumors that he has a cannibalism fetish.

“It’s wild. I’m not going to lie, I kind of like the cannibal stuff now. I’m just like, ‘Hey, I’m a cannibal,’” Armie joked.
He continued, “The accusations are the thing that make so much noise. Like, what makes more noise? ‘Armie Hammer is a cannibal’ or ‘Armie Hammer might not be a cannibal?’ The cannibal thing makes more noise and you don’t get an apology tour in this world. Like, someone says something about you, everyone believes it, and they move on with their lives to whatever it is they’re focused on, because they’ve got their own lives.”
Tom pointed out how Armie has taken time to work on himself in recent years.
“When something like this happens, we do all this work on ourselves, not so that we can get the jobs back but so that we don’t care if we get the jobs back. I think that’s where I feel like I am now,” Armie said.
Over the summer, Armie revealed he had to sell his truck because he didn’t have enough money to pay for the gas anymore.
