Jon Hamm (Mad Men, 30 Rock) has joined the cast of Howl. Hamm will play the defense attorney, Jake Ehrlich, whose life was the inspiration for the TV series Perry Mason.
The movie, starring James Franco as poet Allen Ginsberg, is about the obscenity trial that centered around Ginsberg’s famed poem Howl.
Today, the movie continues filming at the Bronx Supreme Court where it will be through the end of the week.
