'Better Call Saul' season 2 spoilers, plot news: More old hands will make a comeback

Viewers will get to see familiar faces from "Breaking Bad" in the upcoming season of AMC's drama series "Better Call Saul," Zap2It reports.

Jonathan Banks, the actor who plays Michael Ehrmantraut, the police-officer-turned-private-detective, confirms the news in an interview with the website. He said, though, that he was not sure how many characters would make a comeback.

According to Banks, "You're going to see a few characters pop up for sure. I honestly don't know how many, but I know you're going to get another one soon. Some of them are just off-the-wall characters, where you go, 'Oh God! I remember him!"

Zap2It also reports that viewers will get to know more about James 'Jimmy' McGill, alias Saul Goodman. They will also discover what happened to the character played by Bob Odenkirk before meeting Walter White (Bryan Cranston) in "Breaking Bad."

Meanwhile, according to the International Business Times, season 2 will also see the return of Betsy and Craig Kettleman. The show's writers are reportedly considering the characters played by Julie Ann Emery and Jeremy Shamos to continue their quest to make Goodman's life more challenging, just like in the freshman offering.

AMC has previously announced that the newest installment of "Better Call Saul" will include 13 episodes. As of early July, the casts and crew have reportedly been flying to and fro Albuquerque, Mexico and have already conducted the show's first table reading. Master Herald reports that one of the writers, Tom Schnauz, has confirmed that they were done with the first production meeting, as well. 

Schnauz earlier posted a message on his Twitter accounting, stating that he was on his way to Albuquerque with Michael Mando, who plays Ignacio "Nacho" Varga in the show. This led to many speculations that the production would be taking place in the said city.

"Better Call Saul" is expected to premiere by the first quarter of 2016.
