FX’s much-anticipated trailer for Season 5 of Fargo has ignited a storm on the internet, with fans buzzing about Jon Hamm’s unexpected character trait—two pierced nipples.
Contrary to speculation, the Mad Men star revealed that the provocative nipple jewelry seen in the clip was not a result of full Method acting. Instead, Hamm shared that the adorned areolas were crafted artificially, and he commended the work of the “nippleologist” responsible for the intricate process. The 52-year-old actor expressed appreciation for the crew’s dedication, humorously stating, “The crew doesn’t get enough credit, but there was a dedicated nippleologist.”
In an interview with Business Insider, Hamm added a humorous touch, describing the experience of having a makeup artist create a casting of his nipples as a unique bucket list item that he can now check off.
Jon Hamm credited showrunner Noah Hawley for the inventive and amusing concept, describing it as a quirky “Fargo”-esque twist that he found creative and interesting. Despite the unexpected nature of the choice, Hamm embraced it willingly, expressing his satisfaction with being on board.
Creator Noah Hawley also joined the conversation on the pierced nipples, humorously noting, “We all live in Tiger King America.” In the upcoming season of Fargo, Hamm takes on the role of Roy Tillman, a North Dakota sheriff, preacher, and rancher.
As the internet buzzes with discussions about this peculiar character trait, Fargo Season 5 promises viewers an unexpected and humorous twist, adding to the show’s reputation for unique storytelling and intriguing character dynamics.
