Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul will appear in the "Better Call Saul" finale
"Breaking Bad" stars Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul will take part in the filming of the final season of the "Better Call Saul" multiseries prequel. That's the announcement made by co-creator and showrunner Peter Gould.
I have to say that we were a little nervous about it. I'm naturally going to be a little secretive about updates like this, and I don't want to ruin the experience for the audience. The first question we got when we started working on the show was, "Are we going to see Walt and Jesse?" And instead of ducking out, I'm just going to say yes," he said, speaking at a press conference at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles.
After a raucous reaction from those in attendance, lead actor Bob Odenkirk (Jimmy McGill, aka Saul Goodman) also teased potential viewers that "there's more, if we're talking about surprises this season," and fellow cast member Jonathan Banks (Mike Ehrmantraut) joked that he didn't understand how Paul would come back to play Jesse in the prequel. "Aaron Paul is something like 50 years old, playing a 20-year-old. I want to know how you even intend to do it," he said.
The first half of season six is scheduled to premiere on April 18, 2022.
