"Better Call Saul", an upcoming American TV Series, is about to give viewers insights on how Saul Goodman enters the story arc of the highly-anticipated "Breaking Bad". Know who will play as characters and the possible plot entry. SPOILERS AHEAD!
According to TV Line, main star Bob Odenkirk (who shall portray Saul) works with series regulars Michael Kean as Saul's brother Chuck, Rhea Seahorn as Kim, Michael Mando as Mando, famous "Grey's Anatomy's" Patrick Fabian as Hamlin, and Jonathan Banks as his reprised "Breaking Bad" portrayal of Mike.
The same site reveals, "The series is set six years before Saul Goodman meets Walter White," the description of the upcoming spin-off of Breaking Bad created by the producers.
"When we meet him, the man who will become Saul Goodman is known as Jimmy McGill, a small-time lawyer searching for his destiny, and, more immediately, hustling to make ends meet. Working alongside, and, often, against Jimmy, is 'fixer' Mike Ehrmantraut, a beloved character introduced in Breaking Bad. The series will track Jimmy's transformation into Saul Goodman, the man who puts 'criminal' in 'Criminal lawyer.'"
The show exhibits a lawyer who desires to exit the law court and rather settle on a courthouse. This was earlier revealed by Vince Gilligan, the creator of the new series and "Breaking Bad" together with Peter Gould.
Meanwhile on a recent report from USA Today, Gould teased the viewers on the early mystery behind Saul's identity. Gould said, "We're going to bring him to that point, and it's a challenge. We know that's not the name he was born with. What problem did being named Saul Goodman solve?"
"It's like really being into this Rubik's cube we're trying to solve," Gilligan continued.
On the other hand, Gilligan told on an interview that he loves to make the events jump in time. He disclosed the possible time lapse (excluding the six years flashback) on the show. "Anything that was possible storytelling wise on Breaking Bad is possible on Better Call Saul," he stated.
The AMC Network comedy-drama TV series "Better Call Saul" was announced to premiere this November. But the production declared recently that the release date is moved to 2015.
