LOS ANGELES, May 19 (UPI) -- Kiernan Shipka would be interested in a Sally Draper spinoff.

The 15-year-old actress discussed the hypothetical project with Deadline after Mad Men co-star Jon Hamm proposed the series at the Television Academy "Farewell to Mad Men" event.

"That was funny!" Shipka said of the actor's idea. "I think they all decided the title would be Sally Through the Decades. I'm good with it. I'm not saying no."

Hamm suggested the spinoff would see Sally Draper "grow up" and "move through the '70s and turn into a rock star and turn into Joan Jett or something." Mad Men came to a close after seven seasons Sunday, and the actor did say he thinks "the story is complete."

Shipka portrayed Sally Draper, daughter to Don Draper (Hamm) and Betty Draper Francis (January Jones), throughout the AMC drama's run. The actress is scheduled for horror film February with Emma Roberts and family comedy Fan Girl with Meg Ryan.
