'Mad Men' Season 7 Spoilers: Actor Ben Feldman On His Character Michael Ginsberg's Breakdown
"Mad Men" returns to AMC this Sunday with a brand new installment entitled "" target="_blank">The Strategy."
The first part of the television series' seventh and final season has already shocked fans, especially after Michael Ginsberg's devastating mental breakdown last week. Michael, portrayed by Ben Feldman, is believed to suffer from schizophrenia. Last week, the character suffered a psychotic break triggered by the new computer in the office, resulting in the character cutting off his nipple, giving it to Peggy and being restrained while wheeled away on a gurney.
With "Mad Men" returning to AMC on Sunday, fans are curious about Michael and wondering if Feldman has left the series for good. When asked about his return, Feldman remained silent, citing the highly secretive series creator, Matthew Weiner.

"I've been sworn to secrecy like everybody else on that show," the actor told the Baltimore Sun. "If you can get an actor from 'Mad Men' to tell you anything that happens that hasn't already aired, then you deserve an award. It's my job to not say anything."
Furthermore, Feldmen quipped that he and "Mad Men" co-stars such as January Jones, Jon Hamm, and Christina Hendricks underwent "boot camp" on keeping the plot of the show a secret.
"We've all become professional question-dodgers," he said. "It's all part of the 'Mad Men' boot camp."
Feldmen is not the only "Mad Men" actor to decline comment on the hit AMC series, and Weiner is notoriously tight-lipped about the drama- so much so that John Slattery recently admitted that he and the rest of the cast are often just as clueless on the plot as the fans.
"I've stopped second-guessing," the actor, who portrays Roger Sterling, told HuffPost Live. "I think most of us on the show have stopped trying to figure out where it's going to go, because it never goes where you think it's going to go."
"Mad Men" airs on AMC Sundays at 10 p.m. EST. The synopsis for "The Strategy" is as follows: "Peggy does research for a pitch; Pete is invited to join an exclusive club; Joan seeks time spend with a friend."
