Armie Hammer Set for Lead Role in Uwe Boll’s Vigilante Thriller ‘The Dark Knight’

Hammer is set to play the crime-fighting titular character in the vigilante thriller, which is scheduled to begin principal photography in Croatia on Jan. 27.
The embattled actor, who saw his career come to a halt in 2021 following allegations of sexual misconduct, recently returned to work in Travis Mills’ forthcoming western “Frontier Crucible,” which also stars Thomas Jane and William H. Macy.
Following a lengthy probe, Los Angeles prosecutors in 2023 declined to charge the actor with any crime.

In “The Dark Knight,” based on an original script by Boll, Hammer plays Sanders, who takes justice into his own hands as he sets out to hunt down criminals. While his crusade transforms him into a social media sensation and a hero in the eyes of the public, the local police chief sees him as a menace to society and aims to take him down.
“The story of ‘The Dark Knight’ couldn’t be a more current topic, and I’m excited to bring it to life with this excellent cast,” said Boll, whose recent films include the crime drama “First Shift” and the forthcoming migrant crisis thriller “Run.”
While the new film’s familiar title might conjure images of a certain caped crusader, executive producer Michael Roesch pointed out that “our movie is very different from Chris Nolan’s movie, so there is no danger of confusion.”

He's back in the Hollywood gang?
I thought he was a weirdo who tried cutting or eating his girlfriend's fingers off or something like that...?
Not surprised at all....

Uwe Boll is one of the absolute worst directors of the last 20 years. This will most certainly springboard Hammer to greater things

i can see how it would be very different from Nolan's movie The Dark Knight.
Nolan's was a movie called the Dark Knight about a guy named Bruce, who takes justice into his own hands as he sets out to hunt down criminals. While his crusade transforms him into a media sensation and a hero in the eyes of the public, the local police chief sees him as a menace to society and aims to take him down.

Interesting. I know that filmmaker. I’ve seen him posting some production requests here and there but didn’t realize Hammer was part of the cast.

Don’t worry, his next two movies have already been titled Titanic and The Godfather, but there is no intention or danger of confusion.

Not sure getting the lead role in a project from the director of Bloodrayne counts as "back in the hollywood gang".

Uwe Boll is not in the Hollywood gang and is largely regarded as the single worst living filmmaker. So Arnie Hammer is going to him because he’s desperate.

I'm laughing that you picked Bloodrayne out of all of his movies.
This is a fun game.
