Actor Armie Hammer has publicly addressed the cannibalism and abuse allegations that led to his career's downfall, describing the claims as 'bizarre' and 'hilarious' in retrospect. Hammer, who faced accusations of sexual abuse and cannibalistic fantasies in 2021, reflected on the significant personal growth he experienced following the scandal. He admitted to initially feeling resentment but now feels 'grateful' for the ordeal, which he said led to an 'ego death' and allowed him to achieve self-love and validation. Despite being dropped by his agency and losing multiple roles, Hammer expressed that the experience ultimately brought him to a better place mentally and emotionally. He joined a 12-step program and now focuses on his family, taking his children to and from school daily. No charges were filed against Hammer following an investigation by the Los Angeles Police Department.
