Actor Armie Hammer has caused some buzz on social media due to a mysterious post about a movie. The poster suggests a collaboration with directors Benny and Josh Safdie, known for films like Uncut Gems and Good Time. However, it’s important to note that the project, titled Persona Non Grata, isn’t actually real. Armie Hammer posted a cryptic image on his Instagram account hinting at this fictional film and even suggesting a release date of Fall 2026.
In the comments under Hammer’s Instagram post, fans swiftly poured in their congratulations and excitement over his upcoming role following a three-year hiatus from films. However, representatives for Benny and Josh Safdie have informed Variety that the film “Persona Non Grata” is not real, implying that the poster is a hoax. The motive behind this unexpected stunt remains unclear.
As a film enthusiast, I’ve been following the career of a renowned actor who graced our screens in movies like “The Social Network” and “Call Me by Your Name”. After some challenging years marked by sexual assault allegations and claims about a peculiar interest in cannibalism, his career took a downturn. He was dropped by his agency, WME, and largely stayed out of the limelight for several years until last year when he appeared alongside William H. Macy in “Frontier Crucible”. Now, he’s gearing up for another role in Uwe Boll’s “Citizen Vigilante”. Interestingly, his circumstances have drastically improved to the point where he mentioned on the latest episode of “Your Mom’s House” podcast that he’s starting to turn down job offers due to his escalating workload. He put it this way:
> I find myself in a position where I’m actually turning jobs down now, because my schedule is getting so busy.
In my journey, I can sense a shift. It’s been a gradual process, but these days, when my name is mentioned in professional circles, the response often goes something like, “Wow, he really got the raw end of the deal.” And let me tell you, it’s a sensation that fills me with pride and encouragement.
I find myself in a position where I’m declining job offers. My schedule is becoming increasingly busy. Incidentally, that first offer I declined after four years of hardship… It was the most exhilarating feeling I’ve ever experienced.
The Safdie Brothers Split Up as a Directing Team
It’s clear that Hammer recognized the allure of having Josh and Benny Safdie jointly direct the movie titled Persona Non Grata, given their previous collaboration on the acclaimed 2019 film, Uncut Gems. However, following this project, they announced they were ending their partnership in filmmaking. Since then, each brother has embarked on independent careers within the industry, with Benny referring to it as a “natural evolution” that grants them both the opportunity to delve into their unique creative paths separately.
