Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul Will Appear in the Final Season of Better Call Saul

Better Call Saul’s final season premieres Monday with a doubleheader of episodes, bringing Saul Goodman closer to the timeline of Breaking Bad, the series that spawned him. And the season will also bring a pair of very special guests for season 6: Bad Emmy winners Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul, who will reprise their roles as Walter White and Jesse Pinkman.

Co-creator Vince Gilligan first hinted at the news during the show’s season 6 premiere event on April 8. The next day co-creator Peter Gould announced at PaleyFest that Cranston and Paul would reprise their roles, THR reported.

“I think it would be odd if Walt and Jesse didn’t make an appearance. So I’m excited that we did and how we did,” Paul told THR.

How they did it hasn’t yet been revealed. Fans will just have to watch the new season of Saul, starting on April 18 on AMC.
