Many would agree that Jon Hamm is a bonafide leading man and definitely proved that through his work on the critically acclaimed AMC series Mad Men. So it’s somewhat surprising that the Emmy winner has served as the lead of a TV show since the celebrated drama ended in 2015. Hamm fans have likely missed seeing him in that capacity and, luckily for them, there’s good news on that front. The actor has officially scored his firsting leading role since his tenure as Don Draper ended. And interestingly enough, it’ll see him sticking around Apple TV+, where he’s appeared as of late.
The 52-year-old actor has most recently been featured on Season 3 of The Morning Show (which has been viewed by Apple TV+ subscribers). The Reese Witherspoon and Jennifer Aniston-led show tapped him for a supporting role, and Jon Hamm’s casting was apparently crucial. Now, Hamm has been cast to play the lead in Your Friends and Neighbors, a crime drama. It was reported by TVLine this week that the production had received a series order from Apple’s streaming platform.
