Jordan Moreau Ever since news broke that Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul will reprise their roles as Walter White and Jesse Pinkman on the final season of “Better Call Saul,” fans have been cooking up theories as to how they’ll return. Will Walt and Jesse show up as their pre-“Breaking Bad” selves in the “Better Call Saul” timeline? Or will it be a flashback to their “Breaking Bad” days working with Bob Odenkirk’s Saul Goodman?In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, “Better Call Saul” showrunner Peter Gould says that he hasn’t heard a fan theory that actually predicts how it will happen.“I’ve heard [fan] theories about what’s going to happen,” Gould said, “and I’m happy to report I haven’t heard a theory that comes quite close to the actual fact.” The sixth and final season of “Better Call Saul” was split in two halves, with the first batch of episodes premiering in April and May.

Since its 2015 premiere, the Breaking Bad prequel series Better Call Saul has matched the original crime drama’s level of acclaim. The AMC and Sony Pictures Television series’ focus on the eponymous shady attorney played by Bob Odenkirk has earned the series 39 Emmy nominations. The sixth and final season had its midseason finale May 23, and the series returns for its final episodes beginning July 11.

The show is a prequel to Breaking Bad which follows lawyer Jimmy McGill (Bob Odenkirk).The spin-off has also featured other Breaking Bad characters, including Mike Ehrmantraut (Jonathan Banks) and Gus Fring (Giancarlo Esposito).

Better Call Saul is returning for its sixth and final season. The season will include some familiar faces from Breaking Bad and is expected to be released later this month.

“Everyone evolves, I don’t evolve,” snarked Jonathan Banks today at Deadline’s Contenders TV about his character, ex-cop Mike Ehrmantraut between Breaking Bad and spinoff Better Call Saul. 

Ethan Shanfeld The question of whether Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul would appear in “Better Call Saul” has loomed over the prequel series ever since its inception. And while co-creators Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould have remained coy about the possibility of that crossover, the masterminds behind “Better Call Saul” told Variety at the final season premiere that the worlds do, indeed, crossover.As Gilligan said, “It would be a damn shame if the show ended without [Cranston and Paul] appearing, would it not?” He later added, “You heard it here first.”With its sixth and final season premiering on April 18, “Better Call Saul” takes place before the events of “Breaking Bad.” But as the hit AMC spinoff series nears the timeline of its predecessor, Gould says, “If it’s ever going to happen, this is when these two shows start crossing over.” While Cranston and Paul played Walter White and Jesse Pinkman, respectively, it’s unclear whether they will reprise the same roles in “Better Call Saul.” As Gould said coyly, “These two worlds crossover in a way that you haven’t seen before, that’s for sure.”Cranston and Paul previously reprised the roles of Walt and Jesse for 2019’s “El Camino: A Breaking Bad Film,” which followed Jesse after escaping enslavement from Todd (Jesse Plemons) and Uncle Jack’s (Michael Bowen) gang.While “Breaking Bad’s” Giancarlo Esposito and Jonathan Banks also star in its prequel series as Gustavo Fring and Mike Ehrmantraut, many other characters from the Vince Gilligan Cinematic Universe have also made their way into “Better Call Saul,” including Hector Salamanca (Mark Margolis), Don Eladio (Luis Politti) and the Salamanca twins (Luis and Daniel Moncada).

Better Call Saul is back for a new and final season 6 this April. Slippin’ Jimmy’s transformation into the Saul Goodman (Bob Odenkirk is back in the lead role with a memorable ensemble cast after recovering from a heart attack last year) we know from Breaking Bad has almost come full circle.  It may be the beginning of the end, but before that transformation is complete we have a final 13 episodes to enjoy in the series’ sixth and final season, almost two years after season five.

Better Call Saul is coming to an end.
