LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Jon Hamm is all in for his new project, Noah Hawley’s ‘Fargo!’

‘The Walking Dead’ star is now part of the anthology series’ fifth installment, playing the character of self-righteous Sheriff Roy Tillman.

Praising the maker, the ‘Confess, Fletch’ star said “Noah can really balance that tone of the dark, very violent, dramatic aspects of the show with the incredibly absurd comedic moments that also exist.”

Hamm praises Noah Hawley's clarity

Hamm was present at the FX series premiere on Wednesday, November 15, in Los Angeles. “I was less pleased about going to Calgary in -10 F weather.”

He also addressed the ongoing comparison between Don Draper from ‘Mad Men.’

“Don holds a very special place in my heart and my career,” he said.

“I’m thrilled to be able to act in all aspects of what we get to do comedy and drama, dark and light, and play all the 64 colors in the Crayola box. I’m very glad people are responding to it and I think once the season goes on, and people really start seeing it, they’ll be even more surprised,” he added.

Jon Hamm on Don Draper comparison

Jon told Deadline, “I mean, I was so very happy, as many people were, and I think Matt was as well, with how satisfying the ending was for Don, that I think to revisit that might be—I don't know... might be too much. I'm not sure but we don't really talk about it. It's not that it's off-limits, but it never comes up. We have families and other things to talk about.”

“So you know, I'm a big believer in never say never, but if it comes up, you know, it would be—there's a lot of ways to do that. I can't really confirm or deny it.”

The other actors joining Hamm for the new series are Joe Keery, Sam Spruell, Juno Temple, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Lamorne Morris, David Rysdahl, Richa Moorjani, and Dave Foley, as per Variety.

Jon will also be featured in the upcoming ‘Mean Girls’ movie showcasing his musical taste.

He depicts the character of Coach Carr, “I do contribute to a large cast sing-along.”

“It was great to be asked,” Jon said of the original movie Tina Fey and Jeff Richmond’s musical adaptation.

‘Fargo’s fifth season begins on Tuesday, November 21.
