Jon Hamm on How He Tapped Into ‘The Morning Show’ and ‘Fargo’ Roles Simultaneously and the Rise of the Elon Musk Character


Jon Hamm opens up about what viewers didn't see while he was filming 'Fargo' and 'The Morning Show' at the same time.

While working on “Fargo,” the FX series he leads as the toxic, abusive Roy Tillman, he was also juggling filming “ The Morning Show,” playing the charming yet manipulative Paul Marks. “I was living there by myself in this lonely, little Airbnb, desperately trying to make sure that I would get on the Peloton every day to get my heart rate up and sweat and do something where I was feeling like I was engaged with real life,” he explains. To create Paul Marks, he had long conversations with showrunner Charlotte Stoudt and Jennifer Aniston, who plays his love interest Alex Levy.
