(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Elisabeth Moss thinks the relationship between Mad Men characters Peggy and Dan is far too special for sex.
The American star of the hit 1960s series loves the fact that fans worldwide speculate on the likelihood of romance between her character, the receptionist-turned-copywriter Peggy Olson, and ladies man Don Draper.
However, the 28-year-old actress who starred alongside British comedian Russell Brand in Get Him to The Greek - is keeping relatively tight-lipped about any potentially steamy scenes.
One of the virtues of their relationship is that it has never gone there, and I think thats far more interesting to be the one who he hasnt slept with than one of the 65 that he has, she told Entertainment Weekly.
I guess its sort of natural for people to go there and think [that], but I think that their relationship is far more special.
Elisabeth believes the connection between her and Jon Hamm who plays Don on the show - is almost as unique.
After all their time working together on the television series, they dont have to worry about their on-screen chemistry.
Jon and I work really well together and weve worked together for five years now, Elisabeth said. The difficult things are often little technical moments, not necessarily the acting or big dialogue.
While admitting to knowing little about the 1960s, Elisabeth loves the fact that fans young and old look up to Peggy as a feminist icon. She believes the sassy copywriters impact spans generations.
I get all kinds of people saying that [Peggy] was their mom or an older woman saying that was her. I [also] get a lot of young women saying that thats them now, Elisabeth revealed.
One of the cool things about Peggy is that its a very universal story for women. It is specific to that time period - feminism in the 60s is a very big story - but at the same time, some of my sweetest fans are women my age who identify with Peggy. I love that. I love when girls in their 20s come up to me and say I love Peggy. I totally get her. I love that. (C) Cover Media
