Armie Hammer Might Be Recast For The Man From U.N.C.L.E. 2

By Christian Bone

This year has not been kind to Armie Hammer’s career. Any sequels to his previous movies may have to get creative in working around the fallen star’s absence, then. Case in point: the Man from U.N.C.L.E. follow-up.

2015’s The Man from U.N.C.L.E. from director Guy Ritchie didn’t turn out to be a massive success at the time, but the stylish period spy thriller has become a cult favorite over the years since and talk of a sequel has popped up every now and then. In fact, back in 2017, Hammer was the one who was trying to get things moving on a second outing. But the latest word on the topic is pointing to his role maybe being recast for the film.

According to insider Daniel Richtman, Henry Cavill is set to return for the film and hopefully, Alicia Vikander – whose heroine, Gaby Teller, was also hired by U.N.C.L.E. at the end of the first movie – would be brought back for the sequel, too. Still, The Man from U.N.C.L.E. 2 isn’t officially happening at this stage, with Ritchie busy making a movie with Jason Statham in Turkey right now and no word from the studio. It does, however, sound like it’s beginning to come together behind the scenes.
