Armie Hammer, the disgraced 'Call Me By Your Name' actor has been in news over cannibalism and sexual abuse allegations. Now, an explosive docuseries by Discovery+ claims to expose Hammer like never before.Families are systems, microcosms. Every family is different but the inner/external dynamics can be very similar within the historical/social context. I understand it’s a big thing to share abuse, but if she’s moved to a place where she can write and share her experiences, I would think that she’d have a certain amount of pride to finish the creative process by narrating the book with at least some regard for the customer who has spent the money (and time) to listen to her story. Wow ! Casey Hammer who belongs to quite a notorious wealthy family has written a personal memoir of the abuse and depression she suffered as a member of this family . For the first time, Casey Hammer will tell not just her story, but the definitive family history, leaving no stone unturned," directors Elli Hakami and Julian P. Hobbs told Deadline. "With new unfolding revelations and present-day consequences, this mini-series will provide audiences with a riveting journey into a family where reputation is everything and where things are never how they appear."

People read this kind of books because they (we) find and intrinsic identification with the story.

This memoir details the author's experiences growing up as the only granddaughter of American billionaire Armand Hammer. While from the outside, anyone might expect that she grew up in luxury and excess, in reality, Casey grew up in an abusive situation, feeling unloved and forgotten, and her whole adult life has been marred and overshadowed by her dysfunctional childhood and unhappy family.

In the trailer shared by the platform, the 35-year-old American actor is exposed by his ex-girlfriends, Courtney Vucekovich and Julia Morrison, who share text messages showing Hammer's cannibalistic tendencies mixed with weird sexual fantasies. To top it all off, his aunt, Casey Hammer, who appears in the trailer as well, says that she was not surprised when Hammer's message came to light. All of a sudden, I’m in a bad Stephen King novel,” Casey told Vanity Fair about the fallout from the will. “My father is worried about why Michael [Julian’s son, Casey’s brother, and Armie’s father] got the Rolls-Royce. And I’m like, ‘Dad, you don’t understand. You’re going to be out on the street, no one’s paying for your house, no one’s paying for anything.'”

Casey details quite clearly the trials of life in a toxic family and how much more intense the suffering becomes when money and mental illness is involved. This book becomes a cautionary tale about the dangers of playing along and hanging in a family in hopes of money, the trauma of being frozen in a hopeless romantic mentality of a father figure to save one but that hero never arrives. The daughter of Julian Armand Hammer, she acted in the 1992 film 'Leap of Faith.' She is a graduate in business from Pepperdine University and is a licensed Feng Shui consultant. In the trailer, she talks about deep-rooted issues, via which she could be referring to the controversies that the Hammer family was involved in before the sexual allegations. For example, how Armand Hammer’s son and her own father Julian were accused of killing a man in 1955. While they claimed that the man was killed in self-defense, Julian was later acquitted of the charges. What has Casey Hammer previously revealed?
