Actor Armie Hammer says he disowns the film “Citizen Vigilante,” which marked his first leading role after sexual misconduct allegations that derailed his career in 2021. Multiple reports say Hammer characterizes the movie as “hateful” and “disgusting,” and frames his comments as a rejection of the film rather than support for its message or content. One outlet reports that Hammer is sharing the criticism privately while the film remains the subject of controversy, including in Germany. Another outlet adds that the film’s director responds to Hammer’s comments, though the detailed substance of that response is not provided in the sources summarized here. Overall, both accounts agree that Hammer’s position is that the film is inappropriate or harmful, and that this stance comes after public attention surrounding the movie’s content and the actor’s recent comeback work. The reporting also ties Hammer’s disavowal to the broader context of his career pause following the 2021 allegations.
