Better Call Saul Will Include Scenes Set During Breaking Bad
Better Call Saul's upcoming new season will include scenes set during Breaking Bad.
Per EW, co-creator Vince Gilligan revealed Season 4 of the spinoff will feature a subplot which will bring Better Call Saul more closely to Walter White.
“We have a subplot that very squarely gets into Breaking Bad territory and brings us into the world — or at least points us on a path toward the world of Walter White and the territory of Walter White,” Gilligan said. “I can’t wait for folks to see that.”
However, Gilligan did not offer any further details about how these scenes might tie into Breaking Bad. Gilligan has said before he desperately wants to bring Walter White (Bryan Cranston) and Jesse Pinkman (Aaron Paul) into Better Call Saul somehow.
