Armie Hammer Reveals If He's Been Approached About Batman Role

Armie Hammer has been put in the unenviable position of denying rumors that he’s being considered to replace Ben Affleck as Batman. You gotta feel for anyone in such a spot. Even though it feels like the gig of wearing the cowl is comparable to hosting the Oscars — in that whoever’s chosen will inevitably be subjected to scathing scrutiny — Hammer appears to have been blindsided. He likely fielded calls from friends and colleagues who didn’t know whether to congratulate or console him.
