Armie Hammer Making a comeback?

THE STAR SETS OFF ON THE ROAD TO REDEMPTION AS HE HOPES HOLLYWOOD IS READY TO FORGIVE

- Penelope Clifton

Just a few years after it looked like he would see out his days working at a desk job selling timeshares in the Cayman Islands, actor Armie Hammer appears to be staging a remarkable career revival. If he can pull it off, it will be one for the Hollywood history books.

But there's rarely a comeback without a confession, so earlier this month the 38-year-old went on The Louis Theroux Podcast to tell his side of the story.

During the at-times heated interview, Hammer told Theroux that he was not a cannibal despite sending a text that read, "I am 100 per cent a cannibal." He had been an "a---hole" and a "d--k" to women, but didn't break any laws.
