Armie Hammer joked around with wife Elizabeth Chambers on the red carpet at a screening for his film Final Portrait.

The 31-year-old actor was clearly feeling playful with his wife of eight years as the couple posed for the photos on Monday night.

Hammer put his hands over his wife’s chest and waist as he laughed flirtatiously for the cameras.

Director Stanley Tucci previously said he felt pressure when directing the film- as he hadn’t been behind the camera in a nearly a decade — but the experience has reinvigorated his love of filmmaking.

The US actor, producer, director and writer spent 13 years making Final Portrait, about the life of Swiss artist Alberto Giacometti.

Starring Geoffrey Rush as Giacometti and Armie Hammer as his biographer and subject James Lord, it chronicles the creation of the artist’s last painting.

“I did feel a bit of pressure because I hadn’t done one for so long, but I loved it. I would do it every day if I could,” Tucci, 56, told the Standard.

“The creative process, art and the artist’s place in society is a really interesting thing to me.”

The star of The Hunger Games and The Devil Wears Prada spent years plucking up the courage to adapt Lord’s book. “It’s a book that I carried around for many, many years and finally I got up the guts to write to Lord and get the rights,” he said.

“I love Giacometti. I love his work and work ethic and how articulate he was about the creative process. He was extraordinary.”
