Armie Hammer once attempted to hook up with a man after experiencing frustration with women — but it didn’t go quite as well as he hoped.
The actor, 38, revealed he tried “hooking up with a dude one time” during his “The Armie HammerTime Podcast” on Monday, March 3. “It was hilarious because I was like, you know what, women are the worst. Like, gay dudes seem to have it so easy, like so easy.”
To test this theory, Hammer downloaded the dating app Grindr and soon got an offer he couldn’t refuse.
“I’m at a restaurant, my phone blows up and it’s, like, Grindr, and someone else is like, ‘I’m at the same restaurant do you want a b— j– in the bathroom?’” he recalled. “And you’re like, ‘Hey guys, I’ll be back in five minutes.’”
Armie Hammer Took a ‘Bite’ After Cutting Heart Out of Living Animal
Hammer went to meet the man, but it didn’t take long for him to realize he wasn’t feeling it.
“I remember I met this dude, handsome, French, the whole thing, and I was like, ‘OK, this could work, let’s try this,’” he explained. “I remember I started making out with him and I just remember being like, ‘Urgh, God, beards, like I get it why women like it when you shave. This thing is f—ing rough, how do I get in there?’”
The Call Me by Your Name actor was also put off by the man’s size, adding, “And I remember I put my arms around him and I was like, ‘Oh, my God, and these shoulders are so wide, he’s so big, like he’s almost my height, this is so strange.’ And it did physically for me, absolutely nothing. Not even a twitch.”
Hammer went on to say he felt like he was just “going through the motions” rather than enjoying himself. He ultimately put a stop to the encounter when the man attempted to touch his “flaccid penis.”
Armie Hammer Says He Wanted to ‘Get Caught’ Amid Cannibalism Allegations
The Lone Ranger star’s latest revelation comes weeks after he admitted to cutting the heart out of a live animal and taking a bite.
“You take a bite out of the heart, and you’ve got all your buddies around you, they’re goading you on,” Hammer said during an interview on “The Louis Theroux Podcast” last month. “It’s sort of like an almost overly charged male rite of passage when you go hunting for your first time. Everyone that I know who went hunting for their first time had to do something similar.”
He went on to note that taking the bite was “not for the purpose of any cannibalism or any sexual gratification.”
When host Louis Theroux directly asked whether Hammer is a cannibal, he replied, “You know what you have to do to actually be a cannibal? You have to actually eat human flesh. So, no.”
Armie Hammer Opens Up About ‘Bizarre’ Cannibalism Accusations
Hammer’s career in Hollywood effectively ended in 2021 after he was accused of rape by an ex. At the time, various unverified direct messages on social media detailing vivid sexual fantasies — including cannibalism — were attributed to him. He vehemently denied the rape allegations and said all of his sexual encounters were consensual. A Los Angeles Police Department investigation into the claims was closed in May 2023, and Hammer was not charged.
Speaking to Theroux, Hammer claimed that nothing he ever did was against the law, but he admitted that some of his actions made people uncomfortable.
“I left a lot of people in that wake very angry at me for my behavior. … A—— behavior. There’s no way around that,” he said. “Does it make me a d—? Absolutely. Like, I have no problem admitting that. I was a d—. That’s not illegal.”
