Armie Hammer: Why I wouldn’t rule out working with fellow accused sexual abuser Woody Allen

Armie Hammer would be willing to work with Woody Allen as a stance against cancel culture.

The “Call Me by Your Name” star gave a conflicted response in Tuesday’s episode of Spotify’s “The Louis Theroux Podcast” when asked whether he would accept a role in the disgraced director’s new movie.

“Would I work with Woody Allen? I mean, at this point, I don’t know that I’d buy into any of the cancel [culture] of ‘We need to this and that.’ Like, I don’t know,” he replied, calling it “a trick question” with “no right” response.

“Because, like, if I say, ‘No, I would never work with Woody Allen,’ then all I’m doing is saying, ‘I believe in this system that cancels people.’ I think what I would honestly do is, I’d say, I’d like to sit down with him first and I’d like to talk to him.”

Hammer, 38, said if he “walked away from that conversation” with the impression that Allen, 89, was “a good man” and did not “believe everything that people are saying about him,” then he would consider the offer.

“Being someone who had the world say a bunch of stuff about me that I knew wasn’t true, I’d go, ‘Oof, I get what that feels like. That sucks. All right, yeah, let’s do it.’

“But if I walked away from the conversation going, ‘I didn’t get a good vibe, maybe there is fire where there is smoke,’ then I wouldn’t do it.”

The “Manhattan” filmmaker has been accused of sexually abusing his ex-girlfriend Mia Farrow’s adopted daughter Dylan Farrow during their 12-year relationship.

Dylan, now 39, alleged in 1992 that Allen had molested her when she was 7, though he has long denied the accusation and was never charged.

The four-time Oscar winner claimed Mia, 80, made up the allegation after he began dating her other adopted daughter Soon-Yi Previn, who he married in 1997.

The scandal was thrust back into the public eye in 2017 following Harvey Weinstein’s cancellation when Dylan wrote an op-ed in the Los Angeles Times asking, “Why has the #MeToo revolution spared Woody Allen?”

Many celebrities later expressed regret over working with the director and vowed to never do so again.

Hammer experienced a similar fall from grace in 2021 when he was accused of physical and sexual abuse, which he has denied.

His marriage to Elizabeth Chambers ended after he was caught having an affair with a woman named Effie, who accused him of “violently” raping and abusing her “mentally, emotionally and sexually.”

The “Social Network” actor was also accused of having cannibalistic tendencies, having allegedly told one woman he wanted “to break [her] rib and barbecue and eat it.”

However, the Los Angeles District Attorney’s Office did not prosecute due to “insufficient evidence to charge Mr. Hammer with a crime.”
