Move over, Nicole Kidman—there’s a new Big Little legend in town, and his name is Jon Hamm. According to Bravo’s resident tea spiller Andy Cohen, Jon Hamm is basically Nicole Kidman in a suit, and frankly, we’re not mad about it.
Here’s how it went down: The 53-year-old Landman star (because of course that’s a movie name) popped up on CNN’s New Year’s Eve 2025 special via video chat. He joined Andy Cohen and Anderson Cooper—aka, the dynamic duo of live television awkwardness—just in time to drop some serious Nicole-inspired vibes.
Andy Brings the Heat
Andy didn’t waste time making things spicy. “You’re like the male Nicole Kidman!” he exclaimed, referencing Jon’s jam-packed 2024 of projects. It’s unclear if Andy was also hinting that Jon secretly lives for sweeping trains and giant hats, but we’ll allow it.
Then, Andy hit Jon with the hard-hitting questions: “Do you feel as an actor you should, like, share a little bit more?”
Jon, clearly prepared for this existential curveball, fired back: “Listen, I’m achieving peak Kidman. I love it. It’s all I can do. I love working. I get to work on great stuff, and yeah, why not me? I vote yes—more me!”
Let’s pause to appreciate the confidence. Jon Hamm is essentially telling the universe, “Double down on Hamm,” and honestly, who’s going to argue with that?
Anderson Adds His Two Cents
Not to be left out, Anderson Cooper chimed in with a heartfelt endorsement: “Why not? I agree. I want more Jon Hamm.” At this point, Jon is basically a one-man HBO prestige drama.
A Trip Down Mad Men Memory Lane
In a moment of nostalgia, Andy reminded everyone that 2025 marks 10 years since Mad Men sashayed off our screens with its perfectly tailored suits and whiskey-soaked existential crises.
“Well, obviously, it’s the greatest thing I’ve ever done in my career,” Jon admitted, clearly unbothered by his mountain of Emmys. “What’s wild is that now, new generations are discovering it. Thirty-year-olds come up to me and say, ‘Oh my God, I love that show.’ And I’m like, ‘You were 10 when it came out. What are you talking about?’”
Jon, you’re not just Don Draper anymore; you’re officially timeless.
Closing Thoughts
So, is Jon Hamm the male Nicole Kidman? If we’re talking about someone who stays booked, unbothered, and perpetually iconic, then yeah, Andy might be onto something. Now, all we need is a Big Little Lies reboot starring Jon as Nicole’s twin brother, and 2025 will truly be unmatched.
