    Jon Hamm Departs Longtime Talent Agency (Exclusive)

    The Hollywood Reporter – Fri, Nov 2, 2012 6:09 PM PDT

    Mad Men star Jon Hamm has left his longtime talent agency, ICM Partners. He had been represented by the company for more than a decade.

    Hamm was represented by ICM agent Carol Bodie, who was let go by the company along with Jeff Berg, who was pushed out before he could depart to form a new agency, according to sources.

    Another of Bodie's clients, Lincoln and Jack Reacher actor David Oyelowo, has also left ICM.

    It's not clear where Hamm would land, but he instantly becomes a massive target for rival agencies. The actor has long drawn acclaim for his portrayal of Don Draper on AMC's Mad Men and in 2008 won a Golden Globe award for the role. His film credits include Bridesmaids, Friends with Kids and The Town.

    It's not clear whether other clients of Bodie or Berg will depart ICM. Berg has represented Al Pacino and Roman Polanski. Sources have said that he is planning to start a new talent agency and is looking for office space in Century City.
