2018 Prime Video Presents on Tuesday 2 in London
Jon Hamm, who also stars in the show as the Archangel Gabriel, said: “I had read the book some time ago and had been a fan of Neil’s, and this book in particular, and he emailed me and said: ‘I’ve written this character that doesn’t exist in the book’, and I said yes. It was a very easy yes.
“Because I knew that whatever version it was going to take was going to be excellent, then I saw who was going to be in it and thought: ‘This is going to be fun too.'”
Describing creating Hamm’s character, Gaiman said: “I decided to steal from all the stuff Terry and I had made up and never used.
“Terry and I had this whole idea of what heaven was like and I thought for Gabriel to be Gabriel he had to be the best-looking angel you could imagine, and I thought the good-looking stuff will be a stretch for Jon but he could pull it off.”
Hamm talks to USA TODAY about his stay at the "El Royale"
Question: So what did you say when they called about this "El Royale" part, which meant revisiting the "Mad Men" era?
Jon Hamm: Obviously, I’m hyperaware of the awareness that comes with being me in a '60s period piece. I’ve lost roles because of that. I’ve talked people out of casting me in roles. It’s too reminiscent. You don’t want that thing. But this is so different, Sullivan's so flamboyant. He’s so not Don Draper.
Q: That 'El Royale' set is so elaborate. Were there real ice machines?
Hamm: There were no ice machines, but there were definitely beds and Bibles, that’s for sure. I could have slept there. In fact, it probably would have been better to sleep there. It’s definitely the biggest set I’ve ever been on. I've had that immersive feel certainly on "Mad Men," when you walk through the office and all the papers and all the minutiae are period-accurate. It really does help. It help forms the way the movie looks and the way it feels being there
Q: I have to go to Batman, because the idea is so out there about you being in line as the next Caped Crusader.
Hamm: It’s on social media, but it’s not really a thing. You know that, right?
Q: There are no actual discussions going on with movie studios. But you've been anointed by social media. Have you started amping up the workouts?
Hamm: I have to keep working out anyway because being 47 (is hard). I’m trying to keep up with everybody named Chris.
Q: Then settle the global debate. Who's the best Chris: Pratt, Hemsworth or Evans?
Hamm: The one that’s in my movie, Chris Hemsworth. I’ve met him in passing, he got in as I was leaving. But he’s a lovely guy. Most of my experiences with Chrises have been fantastic, in their own way.
Q: Fair enough. Best movie Batman?
Hamm: Probably Michael Keaton in 1989's "Batman." I was familiar with the 1960s television show with Adam West and the comics. I read them a lot as a kid. But the Tim Burton "Batman," the first one, had such a cool-yet-campy, fun dark energy. I appreciated it when they brought in (Christian) Bale, and when they brought in (Ben) Affleck, they kind of turned the series a little bit. There’s a reason that story and that character still continues to entertain and enthrall audiences in kind of the same way that James Bond does. I’m sure whatever they do next will be really cool.
Q: Can you give an idea of how intense the security is around "Top Gun: Maverick" secrets?
Hamm: You are handed the script in an envelope. And the person who hands it to you sit and waits until you have finished the script, and then you give it back. It’s very hush-hush, as it should be. It’s very exciting. Who doesn’t want to see Maverick back in the seat?
Q: Can you just tell us your character's name?
Hamm: No, I cannot. But it is a cool name.
Q: How big a deal was "Top Gun" to 15-year-old Jon Hamm?
Hamm: That movie held such an incredible place in my life when it came out. I saw it over and over – Maverick, Goose, Iceman, Viper and all the cool names. Everything about it was so cool, and Tom Cruise just looked great with that smile and these great sunglasses. I spent all of my lawn-mowing money on a $49 pair of aviator sunglasses. As soon as you pull out those glasses, Kenny Loggins starts wailing and you’re in the Danger Zone. That’s all you hear, the soundtrack in your head.
Q: There's an ongoing discussion about speeding up the pace of Major League Baseball or making changes. As the world's biggest St. Louis Cardinals' fan, what should be done?
Hamm: First of all, it’s not broken. The last three World Series were the most exciting I have seen in some time. The product they are putting out is pretty great. In terms of pace, if you want baseball to be basketball, you should watch basketball. For me, the exciting part of baseball is the pastoral part of it.
There is no better evening than going to a baseball game. Sitting and eating peanuts and watching baseball to me is about as pure an expression of American delight as I can possibly experience. I’ve taken people from other countries. They have many questions. They're fascinated.
Q: Does that have anything to do with being at a baseball game with Jon Hamm?
Hamm: There’s that, too. I’m a very good person to watch baseball with.
Q: So no changes?
Hamm: I would get rid of the designated hitter. The DH is an abomination. Other than that, baseball is fine.

As Canadian hockey fans ready themselves for puck drop tonight on the 2018-2019 National Hockey League (NHL) season, they will notice a new face joining their ranks: Jon Hamm. SkipTheDishes proudly welcomes Hamm as an "honourary Canadian" starring in their new campaign, with the first spot being unveiled nationally tonight during the NHL season opener. The launch comes as SkipTheDishes expands their brand presence across Canada in traditional and non-traditional media, which includes partnerships with six Canadian NHL teams this season.
"We're truly committed to great delivery for all," said Kevin Edwards, Chief Marketing Officer at SkipTheDishes. "Our new campaign embraces the idea of entitlement, as our customers deserve the food they want – wherever and whenever they want it. We are thrilled to bring Jon Hamm on board to play up the stereotype of 'celebrity entitlement.' He has a great sense of humour, that matches our brand and the campaign concept perfectly."

LuPone was also furious with Glenn Close. It probably didn’t help that Kline had a relationship with Close after he and LuPone broke up in the 1970s. I tell her that I
read last year in a New York tabloid that the
two women went out for drinks and made up, and were then joined by Jon Hamm, Mad Men’s Don Draper, and Girls star Andrew Rannells.
“That’s bullshit!” she says. “They got that ALL wrong. I was out with Andrew and Jon – and Glenn was at another table. Glenn came to us and she sidled on up to Jon Hamm. She needed to make herself known to Jon Hamm! Ha ha!” She laughs, casually plunging in another knife.

Yet the actor says that the movement is vital, “because the behaviour that it’s responding to is deplorable”, but he doesn’t really have further opinions to share, because, “Us straight white guys have been saying a lot for a long time; we might want to start listening a little more.”

"I can say I've had my own run-ins with some of the people who've been swept up in this thing,"
"It's certainly different being a six foot two inches, 200-pound male than it is being a five foot four inches, 100-pound female. There's a physicality there."
"Us straight white guys have been saying a lot for a long time; we might want to start listening a little more."
"I think it would have been a little more difficult,. It was a good show, it deserved to be made, so I don't know what that says about where we are as a culture that we're so terrified of offending someone, anyone that we're almost paralysed."

Jon Hamm & Judy Greer Were Halloween Candy Hounds
Kiernan, who played Sally Draper, the eldest child of Don Draper and Betty Hofstadt on the show, said of Jon: ‘He set such a good tone on set [she recalls]. He was always so nice, so grounded, so fun.
"He managed to command the ship and make the energy light and funny, but also completely serious and respectful when the scene called for it. I really admire him for that.'
The cast of the first episode assembled beside him with pride as Weiner introduced each one. Jon Hamm was in the audience!
The episode was terrible. As the credits rolled, Jon Hamm was nowhere to be seen. Spectators had finished their entire bag of complimentary chocolate buttons and pigged out on those on empty chairs beside them (the no-showers had evidently been tipped off) simply for something to do. Anything but continue to watch this dismal narrative in which precisely nothing of note occurs....... There is no clever twist. No lesson to be learnt. No searing truth to absorb. Not even an inch of bathos. Seemingly tone-deaf to the global mood, Weiner gives poor Hajar less agency than Peggy Olson’s little finger, and the hour-and-a-half episode is exactly one hour and ten minutes too long.

Jon Hamm, who was in Bridesmaids and Kimmy Schmidt with you, was a teacher when you went there.
Jon taught the improv section of my theater class when I was in ninth grade. He has a gift for teaching. On top of that, he’s not too shabby an actor. I know I’m biased, but I think St. Louis turns out good people.
Speaking of, if you could create, hypothetically, a St. Louis–set TV show or movie, which other St. Louis favorites are you tapping to star, and what’s the plot?
Maybe a group of siblings coming home for a happy event—a wedding. Jon Hamm, John Goodman, and Sarah Clarke are all starring. Beyond that, I can’t say. I don’t want to give all my amazing ideas away!
actor Kevin Rahm
He said Jon Hamm and Tea Leone, the stars of "Mad Men" and "Madame Secretary," are two actors who are similar in that they make everyone around them better. "They understand that the better everyone else is, the better they look."
