Uwe Boll Casts Armie Hammer In The Dark Knight. What An Insane Sentence.

by

This is not the dynamic duo anyone expected.

Controversial director Uwe Boll and the currently isolated Armie Hammer are joining forces. According to Variety, Hammer is set to appear in Boll’s upcoming project titled “The Dark Knight.

Where to start with this one?

It’s clear that the movie titled with a Batman-esque name, focusing on a crime-fighting character, doesn’t belong to James Gunn’s DC Universe (DCU). Moreover, it’s not an Elseworlds tale either.

Variety elaborated:

In “The Dark Knight,” Hammer’s character, Sanders, embarks on a personal mission to pursue criminals, inspired by an original script penned by Boll. As his vigilante actions gain traction on social media and win public admiration, the local police chief views him as a dangerous element in society and intends to bring him to justice.

As a gamer, I can’t help but feel that the tale of ‘The Dark Knight’ has never been more relevant. I’m absolutely thrilled to breathe life into this captivating narrative with such an exceptional ensemble cast. My latest works include the gritty crime drama “First Shift” and the upcoming heart-pounding migrant crisis thriller, “Run.

Although the upcoming movie shares a similar name with a famous superhero series, executive producer Michael Roesch clarified that “our film significantly deviates from Christopher Nolan’s production, eliminating any chance of misunderstanding.

Uwe Boll Is Often Considered The Worst Director Of All-Time

Over several decades, the nickname “Worst Director” was bestowed upon Ed Wood, yet this title was more affectionate than critical. Known for his fervent quirks, he produced movies that were universally panned but later gained a dedicated fanbase as cult classics.

Unlike some other directors, Uwe Boll isn’t generally held in high regard. When people label him as the worst director of all time, they truly mean it. In fact, Boll himself admits to being “the most hated director on Earth…

Here’s a list of some of Boll’s more notorious films and their critic scores on Rotten Tomatoes:

  • House of the Dead (3%)
  • Alone in the Dark (1%)
  • BloodRayne (4%)
  • In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale (4%)
  • Postal (9%)
  • Far Cry (No Score)
  • Rampage (No Score)

Armie Hammer Was Working As A Concierge At A Resort

From 2010 to 2021, Armie Hammer was a consistent actor in Hollywood, gaining prominence following his notable role in David Fincher’s film, “The Social Network.” He appeared in both high-grossing movies like “The Lone Ranger” and more artistic productions such as “Nocturnal Animals” and “Call Me By Your Name.

In the year 2021, a series of accusations about inappropriate behavior surfaced against me, a gamer. The headlines were filled with shocking revelations about my twisted fantasies that involved cannibalism. Studios, agents, and everyone who was associated with me, distanced themselves instantly. My gaming career took a nosedive as a result.

Due to overwhelming negativity in the U.S., Hammer decided to seek refuge in the Cayman Islands. Overwhelmed by numerous lawsuits and lacking opportunities to act, Hammer found himself taking on various temporary jobs. The magazine Variety reported on these details.

A confidential informant has shared with Variety this week that, contrary to appearances, the individual is actually employed at a resort where he sells timeshares, rather than working in a cubicle. The truth is, he’s financially struggling and is attempting to keep his family afloat by earning money during the day.

According to a person who prefers to stay unidentified, this person once supervised an apartment complex in the Cayman Islands before becoming a timeshare salesman. They live there due to their two young children, who have been living with Hammer’s ex-wife, television host and entrepreneur Elizabeth Chambers, in the Caymans. Earlier reports from Variety suggested that Hammer spent time at a rehabilitation center following his professional decline.

A week ago, whispers started after a flier circulated on social networking sites, suggesting Hammer was working as a receptionist at Morritt’s Resort in Grand Cayman. The flier, initially posted by the verified Twitter account of Muna Mire, a producer for Showtime’s “Desus & Mero,” featured a picture of the actor.

Initially embroiled in legal disputes and escaping criminal indictments, Hammer has since moved on to landing roles in lesser-known film projects, such as Travis Mills’ Frontier Crucible and more recently, Uwe Boll’s The Dark Knight. This unexpected partnership now appears destined, given its occurrence.
