Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul will return to action to once again play the unforgettable Walter White and Jesse Pinkman in the final season of “Better Call Saul“, the spin-off of the acclaimed series “Breaking Bad“.
The news was confirmed by one of the co-creators of the series, Peter Gould, during a panel of the Paleyfest festival moderated by Variety, which took place last weekend of April 8 in Los Angeles, US. The writer said:
“I don’t want to spoil things for the audience, but I will say the first question we had when we started the show was, ‘Are we gonna see Walt and Jesse on the show?’ say yeah. How or the circumstances or anything, you’ll just have to discover that for yourself, but I have to say that’s one of many things that I think you’ll discover this season“
