'Your Friends & Neighbors' star Jon Hamm reacts to his viral dancing meme

Jon Hamm finds his viral dancing clip on social media "adorable" but "mystifying", too.

"It wasn't like I got paid for it. It's lovely, obviously. It's nice," Hamm remarked.

"It's certainly nice to be known for something pleasant rather than something negative. I find it mystifying and adorable at the same time, but it's fun," the 57-year-old actor continued.

In the viral video extracted from the Apple TV+ series, Hamm's character Andrew "Coop" Cooper, who is a disgraced hedge fund manager, can be seen grooving over music and closing his eyes to enjoy the moment.

Season 2 of Your Friends & Neighbors is all set to premiere on April 3.

Hamm's another upcoming project in the new Disney Pixar animated film, Hopperswill hit theaters on March 6.

Talking about his new animated movie, Hamm noted, "I'd be lying if I said it wasn't a goal of mine ever since I was starting this career a million years ago, to be part of this. It's earned its place in the pantheon, not just of animation, but of storytelling."

"You look at things like Toy Story or WALL-E. This goes on and on and on, and just the amazing care that they take with their stories, and this is a worthy member of that club," he added.
