Armie Hammer is Selling His Truck Because He Can't Afford Gas

August 30, 2024 Jordan Ruimy

A year after his #MeToo controversy unfolded online, Variety reported that Armie Hammer was “totally broke” and working as a timeshare salesperson in the Cayman Islands, where his ex-wife, and kids were based.

In the blink of an eye, Hammer went from being Hollywood’s hottest new actor to working in a cubicle, as a concierge.

Fast forward to this week, and Armie has revealed that he’s being forced to sell his truck because he can no longer afford to pay for gas. Sharing a video to his Instagram page, Hammer began …

So, I’ve been back in LA for a couple of weeks now. This is my truck. I bought this for myself in 2017 as a Christmas gift for myself. I have loved this truck intensely and taken it camping and across the country multiple times and on long road trips, and I took it for one last road trip to CarMax. This is because I’m selling my truck. Since being back in LA, I have put about 4 or 500 dollars’ worth of gas in it, and I can’t afford it. I can’t afford the gas anymore.

Hammer recently sat down for an interview on Bill Maher’s Club Random podcast. In the 90-minute chat, he discussed the “brutal experience” of his career, and that despite being “canceled” and “broke” he’s “never been happier” in his entire life.

Hammer’s downfall started after accusations of BDSM and cannibalistic fetishes were revealed on social media. It worsened when a social media user named Effie accused Hammer of rape. They supposedly had set a” safe word” before the BDSM commenced, but she never used it.

A major twist in this story occurred when noted feminist attorney, Gloria Allred, fired Effie once she wouldn’t sign a declaration putting her at risk of perjury based on the accusations. Why didn’t she? It was a major PR disaster for the accuser. Police decided not to charge Hammer, and no further investigation was needed.

That didn’t seem to matter to Hollywood. Hammer is now persona non grata in the industry. He can’t find any work. His last on-screen credit was for “Death on the Nile,” which was shot in 2019. He also shot his misbegotten Netflix remake of Hitchcock’s “Rebecca” in early 2019.

Hammer is the heir to an oil fortune, and a family name that's part of the L.A. royalty. He grew up surrounded by wealth. However, he's admitted that despite his privileged upbringing, he's not supported by his family's money.
