‘Mad Men” creator Matthew Weiner says he knows how his AMC series will end — and what fate will befall main character Don Draper (Jon Hamm).

“It’s 2011. Don Draper would be 84 right now,” Weiner told grantland.com. “I want to leave the show in a place where you have an idea of what it means and how it’s related to you.”

Weiner says the ending of “Mad Men” — scheduled to wrap after its seventh season — came to him last season.

“Do I know everything that’s gonna happen? No, I don’t,” he told the site. “But I just want it to be entertaining, and I want people to remember it fondly and not think it ended in a fart.”

“Mad Men” returns for Season 5 in March.
