Jon Hamm passed on a Green Lantern role, but is hoping to join the Marvel Universe with a part from a comic he enjoys.
Inspired by Jeff Goldblum's career, Hamm is aiming for diverse roles and happiness in acting endeavors.
Hamm pitched himself for a Marvel role, as he wants a varied career like Goldblum's, mixing leading man roles with scene-stealing ones.

Jon Hamm reveals which DC Universe superhero he passed on several years ago while also speaking on the possibility of joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
In a new feature with The Hollywood Reporter, Hamm spoke about how he almost landed a major superhero role for Warner Bros. back in the day, as he was offered to play Green Lantern. However, Hamm revealed that he passed on that gig, as he shared the following:

That was one I definitely didn’t want to do. But I’ve pitched myself for a couple parts of the Marvel universe, I don’t want to say what exactly, but it was a part of a comic book that I really liked. I was like, “Are you going to do this story?” And they were like, “Yeah, we’re actually thinking of that.” I go, “Good. I should be the guy.” So maybe it’ll work out. But I look at a guy like Jeff Goldblum’s career — and I know Jeff a bit, we used to have the same therapist — and I’m just like, “God, how awesome to be able to do all the things he’s done.” He had his leading man phase, and he does Marvel and he’ll just roll through and steal the scene, and then he’s doing commercials and he’s funny as shit. I see him out and he’s happy. So, consciously or not, I’m modeling my life to be that: varied and happy and fulfilled.
