'Mad Men' Season 7 Spoilers: Jon Hamm Talks Ending & Bashes Don Draper [VIDEO]
Mad Men star Jon Hamm is as clueless about how season 7 will conclude the AMC series as anyone else.
Hamm recently gave an interview with The Guardian recently in which he discussed some of the process of going into the final season of Mad Men.
"Well, it hasn't been written yet," Hamm said, when asked about the ending. "But I have every possible faith in [series creator] Matt [Weiner]. We have a meeting before every season starts and we sit and talk for an hour or two, not about specific things. Just chatting about what we did on holiday, what art we have seen, about sports or getting older or whatever. Just stuff that is on my mind. And he will write a bunch of things down from that conversation. I have no idea at all what the process is after that."
Mad Men season 6 ended with Hamm's character Don Draper at his worst, having lost his job at Sterling Cooper & Partners. He also had a moment of catharsis after coming to terms with his past and showing his kids his childhood home, a.k.a. a whorehouse.
Hamm also spoke to the public relating to Don Draper more than he can himself.
"Don Draper is a pretty dismal, despicable guy, so why I would want to take him home with me I don't know... It's a strange thing. People tell me they look up to Don, like they look up to Tony Soprano or Walter White [in Breaking Bad]. People have these weird fascinations with people who in reality you would not want to be for a second."
Mad Men begins its seventh and final season in spring 2014 on AMC and concludes in spring 2015. AMC has not scheduled a premiere date for either chunk of episodes.
