Armie Hammer sex assault allegations being reviewed by LA DA

The Los Angeles District Attorney’s Office is investigating claims of sexual assault made against actor Armie Hammer – after an ex-girlfriend previously accused him of raping her.

“I can confirm that the LAPD has presented a case regarding Armie Hammer to the (Los Angeles District Attorney’s Office). The matter is currently under review,” DA rep Tiffiny Blacknell told CNN without specifying who made the complaint.

The Post has reached out to Hammer’s attorney Andrew Brettler for comment.

While details about the claims are unclear, it is known that the “Social Network” star’s former girlfriend Effie Angelova, 26, accused him in 2021 of “violently” raping her and abusing her “mentally, emotionally and sexually” in 2017.

Hammer, 36, has denied criminal wrongdoing and has not been charged in the case.

At the time, the actor said through an attorney that his interactions with Angelova during their four-year relationship, as well as with other partners, have been “completely consensual, discussed and agreed upon in advance, and mutually participatory.”

Some women also have accused Hammer of being into cannibalistic fetishes and BDFSM fantasies.

The embattled actor recently claimed he contemplated suicide amid the backlash.

“I just walked out into the ocean and swam out as far as I could and hoped that either I drowned, or was hit by a boat, or eaten by a shark,” Hammer, who was living in the Cayman Islands amid the media scrutiny in February 2021, told Air Mail.

“Then I realized that my kids were still on shore, and that I couldn’t do that to my kids,” added the actor, who shares two children, Harper, 8, and Ford, 6, with ex Elizabeth Chambers.

“I would have these younger women in their mid-20s, and I’m in my 30s,” he said, referring to the age difference in his relationships with alleged victims like Courtney Vucekovich and Paige Lorenze.

“I was a successful actor at the time. They could have been happy to just be with me and would have said yes to things that maybe they wouldn’t have said yes to on their own. That’s an imbalance of power in the situation,” Hammer said.

The “Call Me By Your Name” actor admitted, however, he was emotionally abusive toward his former partners.

“I’m here to own my mistakes, take accountability for the fact that I was an a–hole, that I was selfish, that I used people to make me feel better, and when I was done, moved on,” he told Air Mail.

Hammer also blamed his twisted behavior on the trauma he suffered at the hands of a youth pastor who allegedly sexually abused him when he was just 13 years old.

“What that did for me was it introduced sexuality into my life in a way that it was completely out of my control. I was powerless in the situation. I had no agency in the situation,” he said.

Page Six has reported that Hammer was keeping a low profile ever since the allegations of sexual abuse and inappropriate behavior first emerged.

Amid the backlash, he was dropped by his personal publicist – along with his former agency, WME – and was let go of multiple projects.

Chambers — whom he was married to for 10 years — also filed to divorce him months before the scandal erupted. 

Angelova has described Hammer as “manipulative” and accused him of trying to “evoke sympathy” from the public with his suicide account.

She said his alleged abusive behavior “had affected not only me but my family,” after claiming that the actor “repeatedly slammed her head against a wall.”

Hammer told Air Mail that he had a “very intense and extreme lifestyle.”

“I would scoop up these women, bring them into it – into this whirlwind of travel and sex and drugs and big emotions flying around – and then as soon as I was done, I’d just drop them off and move on to the next woman, leaving that woman feeling abandoned or used,” he told the outlet.
