Armie Hammer didn’t speak to his mother for a “long time” after they argued about religion.

The ‘Call Me by Your Name’ actor – who saw his career plummet in 2021 after being accused of physical and sexual abuse – admitted he didn’t find Dru Hammer preaching to him helpful , but she didn’t want to. change who she is.

Speaking on the latest episode of his ‘Armie HammerTime Podcast’, Armie explained that he set “very clear boundaries” with his mother, who was a guest on the show.

He added: “My understanding is that you feel like this is so much a part of who you are and what you are and what your purpose is, that this is exactly what you do. All the time.

“Actually, we had a period in our lives where we didn’t talk at all because I was like, ‘I don’t need a pastor, I need a mom. And if you’re incapable to be a mom and you can only be a pastor, then I don’t need that relationship in my life, I don’t need another pastor.

“And we didn’t talk for a while, because you were just like, ‘This is who I am.’ And that’s fine, everyone is allowed to react however they want when limits are presented.”

The “Rebecca” actor went on to explain that her spirituality is very different from her mother’s and that’s where the problem lies.

He added: “The time when you and I get in trouble is when I feel like my spirituality isn’t exactly like yours, so you try to proselytize or convert or m ‘bring half a dozen Bibles or whatever so that you I want my spirituality to look exactly like yours. And I think that’s where we find ourselves in trouble. At least that’s how I feel.

Later in the episode, Armie interrupted Dru as she shared stories about her religious views.

He said: “I’m really trying to respect your time and your words, but we haven’t gotten back to the point I brought up, which is our personal relationship.

“I talked about how I feel about our personal relationship and then you went to talk about Christ. This is what I think is causing the division in our relationship, where I feel like you and I don’t connect very well on a personal level because I feel like everything that happens is a opportunity for you to speak about Christ. Which is great, (but) the fact that it seems to be an obstacle for us in a personal relationship is why I feel like we haven’t spoken for a long time.”

Dru responded, “To be honest, what I was saying is that I believe that as a Christian, that’s what we’re called to do. So you come from that perspective, and all I was doing was explaining why I do what I do. Because you are called to be an actor. I am called to be an evangelist.”
