<p>Jon Hamm has admitted he does like to take a break from playing Mad Men playboy Don Draper sometimes.</p>
<p>The 39-year-old actor &#8211; who has starred in the award-winning TV show for five series &#8211; enjoys his role as the free-spirited businessman with an eye for the ladies, but also likes the chance to explore other characters through his film work.</p>
<p>Jon told The Independent: &#8220;I guess the difficulty with playing in a television series is that you get to play the same role over and over again. And while it&#8217;s fun and I love doing the show, it&#8217;s nice to get the opportunity to do different things.</p>
<p>&#8220;What I&#8217;ve tried to do for the majority of my career is to do different things that are challenging and exciting in different ways.&#8221;</p>
<p>Jon, who has recently played an FBI agent trying to catch a top bank robber in Ben Affleck&#8217;s The Town, appears in new Allen Ginsberg biopic Howl and later this year plays the villain in Zack Snyder&#8217;s much-hyped action blockbuster Sucker Punch.</p>
<p>A fifth series of Mad Men is also in the pipeline, with Jon promising fans he doesn&#8217;t think it will necessarily be the last.</p>
<p>And he still hasn&#8217;t tired of playing Don Draper.</p>
<p>He said: &#8220;I think we&#8217;ll keep going as long as the story is interesting to tell &#8211; and I don&#8217;t know how long that will be.</p>
<p>&#8220;We&#8217;ve now shot four seasons, 52 episodes of it, and I think there are still a lot of deep dramatic stories still to be mined in that character. I&#8217;m glad I don&#8217;t have to think them up; I&#8217;m glad it&#8217;s someone else&#8217;s job. But I&#8217;ll keep doing it as long as they will have me.</p>
