Jon Hammis getting into the Christmas spirit.
In appearing onThe Tonight Showon Wednesday, the star, 52, put his acting chops to the test as he andJimmy Fallontraded off with dramatic readings of some classic Christmas carols.For the segment, Hamm and Fallon, 49, read the first three lines of several beloved holiday tunes as they tried to one-up each other with the drama of their delivery.
Fallon read through “I’m Getting Nuttin’ for Christmas” and “Santa Claus is Coming to Town,” as he did his best to deliver the drama in the holiday classics.
The duo closed out the segment with a joint reading of “Must Be Santa,” and they were both sufficiently dramatic as they faked some fear of the Christmas icon.

“It’s so good, it’s so funny, it’s so fun,” the actor said of the upcoming film adaptation of the hit Broadway musical.
