Bryan Cranston has said that it is time to let Breaking Bad “go”.
The actor famously played the role of chemistry teacher-turned-drug kingpin Walter White across the show’s run between 2008 and 2013.
Speaking to Entertainment Tonight, Cranston was asked about prequel series Better Call Saul coming to an end in 2022, the star suggesting that it was time to draw a line under the franchise.
“Everything should come to an end,” he noted. “Everything’s cyclical. Our lives are cyclical. The seasons, trees, everything. And, so, it’s okay to have a beginning, middle, and end, and then let it go. I’m proud of what we did.”
As well as a cameo in the final season of Better Call Saul, Cranston reappeared as White for a brief appearance in one-off film El Camino in 2019, and also revived the character for a Super Bowl commercial last year.
Meanwhile, in 2023 creator Vince Gilligan discussed the possibility of a spin-off show for White’s son Walt Jr. (RJ Mitte).
