Batt would only say that "the god of 'Mad Men' [series creator Matthew Weiner]" had recently called to tell him that "Sal is not dead." The character had been fired from his agency last year, prompting Batt's exit from the series.
Batt has appeared on Broadway in La Cage aux Folles, Beauty and the Beast, Saturday Night Fever, Seussical the Musical, Sunset Bouelvard and The Scarlet Pimpernel, and Off-Broadway in Forbidden Broadway and Jeffrey.
