《Five years later, Hammer is making his return to the big screen. In December, he starred in the Western Frontier Crucible, playing an outlaw alongside William H. Macy. He has two other movies in the works.》

《Some say the 39-year-old actor, who’s now sober, has done his time in celebrity purgatory and deserves a second chance. “Armie has apologized privately to everyone he’s hurt and continues to take responsibility for unhealthy and harmful behaviors,” a source tells Us Weekly of the father of two (he and Chambers share daughter Harper, 11, and son Ford, 9). “He’s focused on coparenting and rebuilding his career humbly.》

《The first source says Hammer takes his kids to school every morning and travels to his daughter’s volleyball tournaments on weekends. “He grew up with a great father and wants to be the same for his kids.” Adds the Chambers source, “[Armie] still feels like he [has] a scarlet letter attached to his name and is working hard to change his reputation. He wants to make the kids proud and has been putting in work to turn his life around.》

《Hammer is happy to be working again. “Acting is Armie’s passion, so it’s been making him feel good,” says the first source. “His goal is to work on meaningful stories that challenge him. It feels like coming home, but with a humility and gratitude he didn’t have before. He believes he can reach new heights in terms of how he performs. Opportunities are coming in, and being able to be selective is something he doesn’t take for granted.”》

《Uwe Boll says that Hammer still has star quality. “I’ve worked with some big actors like Ben Kingsley, and Oscar-winning actors like J.K. Simmons, but they don’t have that star thing where you dominate the screen, like a Tom Cruise. [Armie] can do this,” says Boll, adding that Hammer was a team player. “I felt like after four years, it was time to give him another chance. He’s a great actor, he’s so talented, and it was so much fun to work with him.》

《John Bevilacqua, the writer and director of the upcoming neo-noir Night Driver, in which Hammer portrays a vet with PTSD, shares a similar sentiment. “He was someone who was very considerate of the other cast, the actors, and the crew… and I’ve worked with talent who barely even acknowledge you,” Bevilacqua says, adding that there’s a lot of buzz around his comeback. “We were having coffee in West Hollywood, and people were coming up to him about The Social Network and Call Me by Your Name and The Lone Ranger. He’s incredibly gracious, and there is goodwill for him.》

《The insider adds that Hammer still struggles with daily life challenges, "like any other human being," but is committed to his recovery path and "just being a positive person in others' lives."》
