As Saul Goodman's (Bob Odenkirk) story continues in "Better Call Saul" season 3, so do the appearances of the notable people he interacted with in the parent series, "Breaking Bad."
While doing a book tour for his memoir, "A Life in Parts," actor Bryan Cranston, who appeared in the original as the infamous Walter White, dropped a tease.
Cranston said that "Better Call Saul" season 3 will feature "another new character coming on the show that you will recognize," as quoted by Uproxx.
The actor emphasized that he was not talking about Jesse Pinkman (Aaron Paul) or even Gus Fring (Giancarlo Esposito). It also does not look like he was not referring to his "Breaking Bad" character either.
After clarifying that, Cranston left the mystery for fans to uncover. That being said, they might have to wait for the premiere of "Better Call Saul" season 3 next year to find out.
It is important to note, however, that the new season will somehow feel the presence of Gus Fring. There is no word if he will be there physically, but for now, he will be working from behind the scenes as he did in "Breaking Bad."
With regards to Cranston reprising his role in "Better Call Saul" season 3 or in a future season, he said that he will not think twice about bringing Walter White back again.
"I'll do whatever they want because I know how careful they are and proprietary they are with those characters and storylines and it wouldn't be something, 'Oh, isn't that kind of a stunt casting kind of thing.' It would be something kind of unique and obscure and creative, and I'm all in," Cranston told Rich Eisen at "The Rich Eisen Show."
He also said that he was asked to direct an episode of "Better Call Saul," but he is still unsure about accepting the gig since, being a big fan, it would mean knowing where the story goes beforehand.
"Better Call Saul" season 3 is currently in production in Albuquerque, New Mexico. It will premiere in spring next year on AMC.
