Summary
Elon Musk shared Armie Hammer's "Citizen Vigilante" with his 240 million X followers on Friday, though the link went dark on Saturday after being live for about 48 hours.
The push followed a post showing the film at No. 2 on Apple TV charts, with Musk adding that "Citizen Vigilante 2" would be "even better."
Uwe Boll's indie action film, released in the U.S. on June 19, was banned in Germany over extreme violence and anti-migrant content, according to The Telegraph.
The film arrives as Hammer attempts a comeback after 2021 sexual-assault allegations; he denied them, and prosecutors declined to file charges in 2023.
Boll said on Saturday that a sequel will be released in 2027, extending attention around a film Variety called violent, incoherent and morally bankrupt.
