Aaron Paul is excited for fans to see his and Bryan Cranston‘s return as Jesse Pinkman and Walter White in the final season of Better Call Saul.
n a recent interview, the Breaking Bad staple explained why it made sense for Jesse and Walt to appear in Better Call Saul, adding that he was “shocked” when he heard the news of their characters’ return. “I was heading to the [final season] premiere party of Better Call Saul, and they go, ‘There’s a flag on the play. Just so you know, Vince and Peter let everyone know that you and Bryan are going to be in the final season.’ And I was like, ‘What?!’ So I didn’t see that coming,” Paul shared.
“But to be honest, I’m happy to be able to finally talk about it and not be squirrelly. It’s nice to be able to be open about it. So I’m excited. I think fans of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul might have been expecting it. They’ve been seeing the Breaking Bad family slowly appear within the walls of Better Call Saul, so I think it would be odd if Walt and Jesse didn’t make an appearance. So I’m excited that we did and how we did. I think people are going to be thrilled about it.
He also confirmed that Jesse and Walt’s return will be executed in an unpredicted way, “To be honest, I’m such a fan of Better Call Saul that I just didn’t initially see how they were going to do it. But of course, leave it to Vince and Peter and the rest of the writers to come up with the perfect way. It’s fun. I think people are going to be excited.”
