Plus there's been a half-dozen film/TV adaptions of Rebecca. I feel like if you're going to go back to this well an unconventional casting choice would be a good way to set yourself apart. Especially if you're adapting something that was previously adapted by Alfred fucking Hitchcock.

Exactly. And while the woman chosen to play the lead is not a bad actor at all, she's just screechingly white-bread.

The guy i don't even recognize, by face or name, and he inspires nothing. I don't think they, as a couple, will bring much fire.

I have never seen this person except for this photograph and I know for a fact he's a shit actor incapable of chemistry or 'fire'

That seems so uncharitable but frankly....his name annoys the fuck out of me.

He's named after his great-grandfather Armand Hammer (and his father's and grandfather's middle names were also Armand). The similarity of Armand Hammer to Arm & Hammer is just a coincidence, though the senior Armand did acquire shares in the parent company after being asked about it a lot.

I think its the shortening of it. 'Armie'. Like adult men who call themselves 'Tommy' or 'Corky' or something. Doesn't sit right with me.

Like Tommy Lee Jones, Ricky Whittle, Bobby Cannavale, Willie Garson, and Johnny Vegas? I guess if you don't like it, you don't like it. But I'm really not sure there's any other way to go with Armand without inviting a tone of Arm & Hammer jokes, given his last name. I guess he could be a Manny, but Manny Hammer sounds so weird.

Yup, it's *weird*, and I've never liked it.

What's wrong with Armand? It's a very nice name. 'Armie' sounds....just silly, and 'Armie Hammer' sounds like a WWE name or something, I dunno.

Nope, not for me.

There's nothing wrong with Armand, on its own, but like I said, with Hammer as a last name and as a celebrity, lots of jokes about Arm & Hammer, since it's is literally Arm-and Hammer, which would also be a problem with just Arm. I mean, I'm sure he does get some as it is, just it would be much worse.

How about Douglas? That's his middle name.

I think Armand is a perfectly nice name, dunno why he has to mess with it. Much more gravitas that 'Armie'.

Hammer seemed pretty good in The Social Network? But then that was directed by David Fincher and I'm increasingly convinced David Fincher could get a great performance out of a uncharismatic plank of wood.

Fincher goes for typecast. Armie Hammer is an airhead nepotism child and played one in a movie perfectly.

NA

Critics seemed to like him in Call Me by Your Name. I didn't think he was bad in The Social Network. But he should maybe stop being in big remakes, since neither The Lone Ranger nor The Man from U.N.C.L.E. did that well.

He did an exceptional job in Call Me By Your Name.

He was fun as Illya in Man From UNCLE, and his performance as Prince Charming under the influence of a Puppy Love potion in *Mirror Mirror* was hilarious. So I have a real soft spot for him.

Ah ha ha. I did not see either of those movies.

The most interesting thing about Armie Hammer is he's really into bondage

Oh? Like, *actually* really into bondage, or just 'i'm gonna make a noise on social media and see what happens' into bondage?

What a weird fucking article. Calling his like a 'mistake'. Wth.

But good on him for liking what he likes.
