About Armie Hammer

Armand Douglas Hammer (born August 28, 1986) is an American actor. He began his acting career with guest appearances in several television series. His first leading role was as Billy Graham in the 2008 film Billy: The Early Years and Hammer gained wider recognition for portraying the twins Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss in David Fincher's biopic The Social Network (2010). Hammer portrayed Clyde Tolson in the biopic J.

The following year, Hammer portrayed Martin D. Ginsburg in the biopic On the Basis of Sex (2018). On Broadway, he starred in a production of Straight White Men in 2018. In 2021, Hammer's career was derailed when he was accused of sexual and emotional abuse by three women. He abandoned several projects and was dropped by his talent agency and publicist. Hammer denied all accusations. After an investigation by the Los Angeles County District Attorney (LACDA) and the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD), they declined to pursue criminal charges, citing insufficient evidence. He returned to acting in 2025. His first ventures into film began with a minor role in the 2006 film Flicka, as well as co-starring in a 2008 psychological thriller, Blackout. While residing in the Cayman Islands, he attended Faulkner's Academy in Governor's Harbour and Grace Christian Academy (a school founded by his father) in West Bay, Grand Cayman.
