Cannibal movie director: Armie Hammer claims ‘didn’t dawn on me’
Armie Hammer when he released the trailer for his newest project, the cannibal romance film “Bones and All.”Hammer, 35, was accused of sexual assault, emotional abuse and cannibalism last year and the now-disgraced actor’s alleged scandals are being chronicled in a Discovery+ documentary series, “House of Hammer.”The trailer for “Bones and All” was released just a day after “House of Hammer” was announced and many fans were able to draw parallels between Hammer and Guadagnino’s film.However, the Italian filmmaker, 51, recently said the connection was a mere accident.“It didn’t dawn on me,” Guadagnino said in an interview with Deadline. “I realized this afterward when I started to be told of some of these innuendos on social media.”Guadagnino’s flesh-eating love story stars Hammer’s old “Call Me By Your Name” co-star Timothée Chalamet and is based on Camille DeAngelis’ 2015 book of the same name.According to the “Suspiria” director, he has been developing “Bones and All” for “a number of years.”“Any link with anything else exists only in the realm of social media, with which I do not engage,” he said.
