Why isn’t Jon Hamm a movie star?

Variety

The Mad Men alum was a fantastic actor on the small screen, earning an Emmy and multiple nominations. Yet Hamm has been struggling to break out on the big screen, “fumbling around in movies that aren’t worthy of him,” says Owen Gleiberman. He adds: “Let’s be honest: If you compare him to the two other greatest actors of the new golden age of television, Bryan Cranston and the late James Gandolfini, Hamm, on Mad Men, had a tall-dark-and-handsome sharky elegance combined with a glamorous film-noir danger that made him seem, uniquely, like the 21st-century version of a classic movie star (think Robert Mitchum with a touch of Gregory Peck).”
