Armie Hammer will address allegations he is a cannibal in a new interview with Piers Morgan.
The Call Me By Your Name star made headlines in 2021 after messages he allegedly sent detailed graphic sexual desires and cannibalistic fetishes. He was also accused of rape and sexual assault by multiple women, which he strongly denies.
In a yet-to-air interview on Piers Morgan Uncensored, Hammer is asked by Morgan whether he has ever eaten human flesh, while also being questioned about the messages that came to light in 2021.
In a teaser for the interview, Morgans ask the actor: âAre you a cannibal?â to which Hammer replies: âYou know what you have to do to be a cannibal?â
Morgan then asks Hammer directly whether he’s ever eaten human flesh, with the actor saying “it’s not a question I thought I’d have to answer”.
"Are you a cannibal?"

One message allegedly sent by Hammer to a former girlfriend reads: âYou just live to obey and be my slave. I will own you. Thatâs my soul. My brain. My spirit. My body. Would you come and be my property till you die? If I wanted to cut off one of your toes and keep it with me in my pocket so I always had a piece of you in my possession?â
Addressing the message, Hammer tells Morgan: âThis was a very intense [affair]⊠very sexually-charged, between two people ⊠Different people have different sexual fantasies.â
He added: âBut I donât think thatâs any different than when someone looks at a baby and goes, âOh my God, look at those cute little fat legs, I just want to eat you up.ââ
Of the wider allegations of abuse, he claimed: âNone of those people were hurt or upset because I pushed any sexual boundaries.â

Elsewhere in the interview, Hammer admitted that he “scraped” his initials into his ex-girlfriend Paige Lorenzeâs groin with the tip of a knife during their four-month relationship.
However, the star stressed that he didnât âbrandâ her, as she had previously alleged, and that âthere wasnât even bloodâ.
âThere was a scenario that we talked about beforehand, that we had discussed where, you know, I would basically take a little, tiny point and just kind of trace the letter âAâ â just like the tip of a small knife.â
He added: âI mean, there wasnât even blood in the situation. It was more like a scrape⊠Itâs along the lines of couples getting their own initials tattooed on each other.â
When Morgan suggested that using a knife was âa bit different to a tattooâ, Hammer replied that it âwas less permanent. I guarantee it was such a small thing.â
After Morgan said he was âshockedâ by Hammerâs admission, the actor replied: âYes, I think to some it probably sounds really strange. To some, it probably sounds like a very romantic gesture.â
Last year, Hammer addressed claims of sexual misconduct from two women, Courtney Vucekovich and Paige Lorenze, denying any criminal wrongdoing but admitting he âone million per centâ emotionally abused them. During the 2023 interview, Hammer also said he attempted suicide in 2021 in the wake of the allegations, while also revealing he was sexually abused aged 13.
