We all saw this coming, but here it is! No mystery here. 

I saw him in the show. He was perfectly good, but his performance wasn't anything special. If they can get another star to fill the role, they should be fine. Even though it's mostly an ensemble cast, Hammer's role was essentially the protagonist, and he was kind of a "nice guy / everyman" character - shouldn't be too hard to find someone who can pull that off as well as him, if not better.

That's a shame. It was a very meaty role.

Did he bite off more than he could chew in the role?

Give me claws and a hunch, just away from this bunch.

Or his role wasn't juicy or meaty enough.

honestly didn’t think a cannibalism fetish would completely upend his entire career this quickly

I guess we're not as open-minded as we all thought we were.

Good thing too, because if our minds were open, Armie might sneak up from behind with a straw and go to town.

It’s not a fetish that upended his career.

It’s the fact he’s emotionally abused and coerced many women who may not have been wholly willing to submit to him.

He’s currently being investigated by the LAPD for rape.

Interesting, because I heard he snagged the role of Audrey II at a spicy Little Shop revival at the Peppermill.

As Len Cariou once said about Broadway: " it's a cut-throat business!"
I'm sure Mr. Hammer will have another opportunity to take a slice of it🙄
