Exclusive Interview: Real life couple John Slattery & Talia Balsam on 'MAD MEN' - Season 3 and 'IRON MAN 2'
The husband and wife talk both Madison Avenue and metallic as the hit AMC series concludes its latest seasonWhile watching AMC’s Emmy-winning hit drama MAD MEN (which wrapped up Season Three this weekend), if you experience an unusual sense of realism in the scenes between John Slattery as ad agency co-owner Roger Sterling and Talia Balsam as his now ex-wife Mona, it could be because the actors have been wed to one another for the past decade in real life.
On his own, Slattery has recently been in FLAGS OF OUR FATHERS, CHARLIE WILSON’S WAR, K STREET, DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES and plays Robert Downey Jr.’s dad in the upcoming IRON MAN 2 and Balsam’s career dates back to being a child actress on HAPPY DAYS – she was in K STREET with Slattery and just played the Surgeon General on FLASHFORWARD. The pair talk about playing married in the Sixties while being married for real in the present.
