Jon Hamm Joins Season Three of “The Morning Show”

20 AUGUST 2022 - Jon Hamm’s long, sad nightmare is over. The Hollywood Reporter says the actor has finally landed a role on Apple TV+.

If you don’t know the joke, Hamm did an ad for Apple TV+ earlier this year. In it, he complained about the fact the he wasn’t anywhere on the Cupertino-streamer. Flipping through Apple TV+ titles and happening upon “The Morning Show” he says, “Jen and Reese - feels like a missed opportunity.” Well, now the opportunity is taken, with the actor taking a prominent role in the third-season of the series. THR says Hamm:

…will play Paul Marks on The Morning Show. The character is described as a corporate titan who sets his sights on [the television network] UBA, pulling [the show’s leads] into his powerful orbit.

Production on season-three is expected to begin this month. No word on when it’ll land in the stream.
