When outstanding Better Call Saul came to an end, it was inevitable to wonder what lay ahead for the franchise Breaking Bad in future. First of all, because the series about the controversial lawyer turned out to be a complete success, it is difficult to think that AMC and Sony Pictures will forget about this universe. Although we don’t know the plans of the production companies, there is an actor who has a very clear idea of what he should be like. next spin-off.
In an interview with Diversity during the Emmy red carpet, Giancarlo Esposito asked about the possibility of seeing another spin-off Breaking Bad. It is curious that the actor did not miss the opportunity to raise his hand for the main role. That is, wants the next production to focus on Gus Fringone of the main villains of the main series.
Esposito believes this is the perfect opportunity for storytelling to show us Gus’s rise to power in the criminal world. “I think that ultimately there must be one [un spin-off]…there might be one there. I have many proposals that I would like to promote. I would say one thing about Gus’ rise. Find out what parts shaped Gustavo Fring.”
Without a doubt, the actor’s proposal is more than interesting, and many fans are sure to Breaking Bad They would be very happy if this project became a reality.
Better Call SaulIn fact, he had already researched part of Gus Fring’s past.. Not in as much detail, but enough to understand how he managed to get a position in the cartel in New Mexico. However, we do not know when or how he first became involved in criminal activity.
Fortunately, Breaking Bad It is a universe whose narrative allows us to explore the experiences of many characters. This was first demonstrated on El Camino: Breaking Bad Movie, which shows what happened to Jesse Pinkman after the events of the main series. Then of course we have Better Call Saulwhich tells how James “Jimmy” Morgan McGill becomes a corrupt lawyer after failing to follow the path of integrity.
What Vince Gilligan thinks about the future Breaking Bad
Now, as much as we and Giancarlo Esposito himself would like a Gus Fring spin-off, Vince Gilligan will have the last wordcreator Breaking Bad. At the moment, the creative does not intend to participate in another project in the franchise, as he is preparing an original series on Apple TV+. Of course, he never closed the door to returning to the universe he loved so much. In October 2023 he commented Diversity:
“Honestly, if I get beaten up in the next series and the next series after that, no one will want to watch them and everyone wants some Breaking Bad, perhaps we will see the clearest path for this. I will do something in the future, but I would like to leave it as is. Breaking Bad And Better Call Saul They are my life’s work. They will be the first thing engraved on my tombstone. “I’m very proud of it.”
However, he also said that I would not encourage the use of a deductible in excess of what is required.: “I’m seeing other story worlds—I’m not going to name names—that seem like, ‘Hey, they’re really squeezing every penny out of this franchise.’ I wouldn’t want this to happen to Breaking Bad. I’d rather make a mistake and leave the party too early than too late. But never say never. It’s just because of how I feel now, but who knows what will happen in the future.”
