Armie Hammer's awful aunt

Something called Discovery Plus has a three part documentary coming in September about Armie Hammer's troubles. The paid consultant for the series is his aunt Casey Hammer. It's hard to imagine she has inside information.

From Showbiz 411:

Casey is the sister of Armie’s father, Michael. She hates the family (despite the money) and is willing to be the Mary Trump, so to speak, in this case. So there will be no Thanksgiving dinner this year for the Hammers. I hope whatever they paid her is worth it. You can read my Hammer family story here.

My attitude toward this is, interesting as the Hammer family is, Armie deserves a chance to recover, explain himself, and apologize. We don’t know everything that happened, just the surface. This doc is not going to give us any understanding.

A press release promises:

“Each episode will shine a light on a depraved pattern of abuse that extends far beyond the accusations brought against the disgraced actor. Coupled with a trove of incredible archival footage, House of Hammer weaves together a chilling story of the dysfunction and wickedness that grow behind decades of power and money.”

Armie Hammer has reportedly been reduced to selling timeshares in Cayman islands. If you want to meet a celebrity, find out what Johnny Depp or Timothee Chalamet are really like, go shopping for time shares in the Caribbean.
