Best known for his performance as Don Draper in Mad Men, Jon Hamm has also starred in movies like The Town, Sucker Punch, Bridesmaids and Keeping up with the Joneses. He will now be seen in the upcoming movie ‘Baby Driver’.
In Baby Driver, Jon Hamm stars as ‘Buddy’, a ballistic bank robber who hops on a getaway ride with the ‘Baby’ who is Ansel Elgort. “It’s definitely not a musical in the grand MGM tradition, but it’s an important element,” says Hamm. “Music is in 90 percent of the film and drives a big portion of the plot as well.”
Jon Hamm has a very unique and peculiar look in this new movie. This new look was driven by writer and director Edgar Wright who really wanted to play it up. When asked about his makeover for the movie, Jon said, “I don’t know what it’s called. They shave the sides and then you’ve got a mop on top. I’ve basically had a version of the same haircut for the last decade, so when I got this one I was like, Oh Goodness!”
He also said that changing your hairstyle that much does a lot not only for oneself to inform the character but really washes away any previous persona that you had in the minds of the audience.
A talented, young getaway driver (Ansel Elgort) relies on the beat of his personal soundtrack to be the best in the game. When he meets the girl of his dreams (Lily James), Baby sees a chance to ditch his criminal life and make a clean getaway. But after being coerced into working for a crime boss (Kevin Spacey), he must face the music when a doomed heist threatens his life, love and freedom.
Baby Driver is written and directed by Edgar Wright. Along with Jon Hamm, Ansel Elgort, Kevin Spacey, Lily James, Jon Bernthal, Eiza González and Jamie Foxx will also be seen in the movie.
