Armie Hammer lashes out at James Woods’ latest homophobic tweet

Since the work dried up, creaky Hollywood blowhard James Wood has kept busy by firing off insulting conservative rants on social media. His latest crusade goes after consistently working actor Armie Hammer and Call Me By Your Name, the gay drama Hammer currently stars in.

Wood is apparently outraged Hammer agreed to star as a 24-year-old scholar romantically entangled with a 17-year-old student (portrayed by Timothee Chalamet), claiming the film’s subject matter is “quietly chip[ping] away the last barriers of decency.”

To make his post that much more unpleasant, Woods hashtags NAMBLA (the North American Man Boy Love Association).

Hammer himself called out Woods regarding the tweet:

“Didn’t you date a 19-year-old when you were 60……?” he writes.

Indeed he did. After that, he dated another 20-year-old when he was 66.

She was recently arrested for felony drug possession, according to gay interest blog Towleroad.
