A hotel staffer has since confirmed that this all boils down to a prank.
Hammer — who grew up regularly visiting the Caymans, and has been living there throughout the pandemic — is a guest of the hotel, but not an employee. He is friends with some of the hotel staff and plays golf with them, the employee explained that some of the staff that golfs with Hammer made the flyer and sent it to a few rooms at the resort, as a prank, to try to see what sort of attention it might get.
Hammer was last seen in Disney’s Death on the Nile (2022), but has no other projects lined up and did not do any press for that film.
