mmm
him
mmm
I can confirm that there are people out there
and possibly even up on the stage right now who are genuinely depressed
about breaking bad ending in a couple months there'll be no more that left
I imagine that you could
probably have kept it going for a couple more seasons if if given the opportunity
I mean why
why now I really add
creatively I I am one of the people who stood who
who is depressed that this that the show is over because these wonderful people
here who
a you know we've we don't see each other that often these days
accept events like this which and his answer wonderful
so for for personal reasons
I I am I am very sorry it's over but creatively
everything has its every story has its beginning middle and an end in
particular
when historically television shows are designed to be
indefinite in there storytelling capacity their desire to go on
forever most to them this one by its from its very
a conception was not it was not designed to to go on forever and
it needed to and and so creatively I haven't
despite wonderful feelings love
love love and respect for the show that that we are very blessed to get
I don't feel like creatively that we're in it to some we had some time now to
to not be Walter White anymore it did you fall but why
yet yeah you miss the guy asking I'm back into your day-to-day life in any
way
is the the greatest character of my career I don't think anticipate
being able to play someone so rich in deepened
varied those the spectrum of emotions that Walter White can
justifiably play are uncanny
it's just it's a playground for an actor and
a.m. I I'm I i'm
so grateful for but I agree with Vince I think we came to a natural landing
and it's time to let although the always be water weight and a Heisenberg inside
me
I and I i I whenever I need to bring them out
yeah
while would you like to see tonight yeah
a
but its its you know it's funny because it I don't want it to sound flippant but
but as actors were sort have used to having sort of shallow roots
that we make intimate relationships and then we know
it's coming to an end and we pull out the tree
and we find another place to plant it and we plant the tree and it grows roots
in WI
we meet other friends and people that we love to work with them
and at some its kind have been that way
and so while we have all hold up the roots
arm I don't think the a
I don't think we'll ever will inexorably tied to each other
because a Breaking Bad and that's that's a lovely thing to have
I think I think die-hard Breaking Bad fans already know this but the
the character Jesse Pinkman was not planned this really be a long-term
presence on the show ever stop what the heck I never showed Breaking Bad have
been with Jesse
yeah vans yeah
damn fine program do I
oh yeah and I
of 0 I i can imagine what are you to tell a story about wanna take you for a
ride
yeah I mean you know when I was a hired
to play Jesse Pinkman on Breaking Bad I had no idea
the a national plan that a a
he was gonna meet his demise towards the end of the first season
on I was really your page too to
networks right yeah I the archive the first season
my character would bring what why into the dry world and then
he would die in some horrific death
a and then yeah it would lead Walter White
going after you know revenge yeah to
avenge my death %uh but data
decided to kinda go a different route thank God I
god oh and that's all I needed yeah
so I would say things like for my god oh my god
II your Justin Timberlake really love the show a good idea
yeah
comes on the show kills Jesse
and then takes over and then we spar and
erlich fuckin now this
all in all other Brian would mess with me throughout the in
tire series I'm and I'm member in the middle
halfway through the second season Brian came up to me which is such a serious
look on his face
for said gave you this big hug am i
everybody goes man but
great on a I
tested these did you read the the next episode
and I said no and then he looks at me and goes
gives me another hugs just
just read its its fine just his
walks off klaas
Louis shit yes he's
diahann so I and so I go get the next episode and he was just lying
Sather gonna
lots that way but if there's a another iconic scene at the UN
Brian created together it's perhaps the one that will be
quoted for time immemorial issues the you know
I am the one who knocks yeah scene I'm sure you'll be asked about this in every
public setting go to this week but could you guys talk a little bit about
the creation of that have them see the the seeds but you planted between
Skyler and Walt as a couple
that actually lead it leads directly I think
to that seen the the nature of their relationship and the pilot
she's she's trying to control things
because that's what she knows to do as a human being
she tries to control into chaos she tries to control things
because it gives her a sense of order and it makes her feel better as a human
being that's how she orders her life that makes
she's not an emotional person she's a tightly held person and he's finally
saying
you don't control me I'm not controlled by anybody
especially you you don't understand who you're dealing with and I think that
their
its I can follow that line directly from the pilot all the way to that seen
and I saw that like a flash the other night nice and it was really really
interesting to see that
the the other fun thing for me in that same a
the way you guys played at the way it was written and directed is that
at the moment were you give what is arguably and you never know the stuff
I advance you know we cannot come apart in hindsight but in that moment you give
one of those
archetypal lines are the series I am the danger I am the one who knocks your
character wise you're you're at you want your lowest ebbs
power wise because a gust gestapo fraying
has just got you over a barrel at that point which is which is what
what I I love about the the way that seems was constructed
yeah I know you would but the way you play it you like I believe this guy is a
badass
but but in the context at the moment hadaka matter that's n7 security
yeah he had at that moment yeah to try to get something back
yeah their back from your wife if not from a guy
yeah who were threatens the your life will hold that in this area
yeah coming to their case to be made especially as the show's remand entering
its
home stretch I mean its its a story almost as much about
hank as it is walter is a story about at
a man's redemption as much as it was about a man's
corruption yeah I mean I think I saw the the count the parallel or the opposite
track
kinda started developing between Walter White Hankin now
you know what side you have said this before but he he's he's he's the only
guy on the show who who
you know is not corrupted and it was it was an odd
I'm position to be in the show called Breaking Bad
when he's the only guy who who who didn't break bad you know
and I harken back to when I unfortunately had to be there
this young man yeah I bet he beat me up idea but then I would feel sorry about
it
and I and idea yeah he felt bad about it needed a lie about it he could have lied
about it then we want them to lie about it to get away with the name his wife
this one here yeah klepto
Kathy here cough cough cough
everybody has brought I know yeah I'm in different ways we were sent without
charge it was a it was a it was a it was a great guy and was promised
Times nyse: episode that he wrote this great great great speech with Hank just
saying you know i i cant do it and I'll
ago and then and a and I'll accept the consequences for
for for the for my actions you know and I was it was a
love you 3i love our it was a great yeah I was really cuz i wouldnt
it really was written so we couldn't cry but every time I read the lines that
I'm just a man you know
I'm I don't think a bit cut out to be a adopt through any more than just
I could take almost couldn't do without tearing up even on the time if not spit
because the lines were so powerful by time you got there he said the universe
is trying he there's a long speech and if I said the universe is trying to tell
me something on this
I'm not the man I thought I was you know it's really hard thing to say
for any anybody it let alone hey you know and
I thought that was that his is his corner kinda stayed through
the next couple couple seasons you know
as Murray who you know I mean she is one in the morn
troubled characters in which is also only say that I
but also she's me made herself very endearing
and what is it like to be that that person for a little while
temporarily I will you know even when she's
cuz she can be a huge pain in the ass and I
but I just left her from the beginning and I will empty
you left her fence I because you always did not always stick up for her and
and I just loved her and but I love their
I love her flaws and it's so
fun to play and right now I'm
I'm I my new show I
I play a character much more like me then anyone I've ever played
in Murray was so different and try to think there's not neem
as me in there but was so fun to do that i mean the psych purple loving freak
I who would also at times be the only voice reason
I'm on these really smart people who purchased
ike as I was like huh wake you
you know and I i loved her for that and have loved that she would surprise me
you know the huge scene for me know I've talked about this before was
the intervention scene when we shot dead in season one
with like Sachin watershed moment
you know just for me in in the show to Remi
seem cool all these people were and how they were to each other
and and be surprised by my character in
all of them and really see you know I just
I saw I saw this I saw the show just
being amazing in going on for like 585 long think
I think why audiences connected to two breaking bad I mean it premiered
you know in the midst of a really harsh a you know economic downturn in the
it you know people not only found it possible that somebody could be in his
dire circumstances as walter is but they
the connected to it they want to root for him in in a weird way
I i honest to god I was not thinking that much in terms of
the terrible times we want their star and was it 2008 my doll
I want to share yeah II was I was not really
the thinking and and there is nothing political I had in mind
I just I just want to Telstra but this one
to me very interesting man a and
I what I was worried about the early days was was that people would not
engage
with him that we would be able to set the hook as it were
because he wouldn't be likable enough because you know I know going into the
skies
gonna be cooking Crystal Method what the hell is worse
that Maddon it destroys whole communities is really not
anythink good to be said about the crystal math and
so one of the reasons I want to work with Brian again
you now starting with you know the characters the guy doing all this bad
stuff is
that I knew we had the acting chops but also I also knew he had this basic
underlying humanity that just comes
through it kinda beams out his eyes are his is
is expression on a word comes from but you root for this guy
it and i learn our index fell episode where he played a real villain
who nonetheless you felt sorry for dinner at all so that for season
I really front-loaded you know get Brian playing the part
you know array a lot of economic hardships against him do everything I
could
from a writer's perspective from a mechanical storyteller perspective to
make us worry for this guy and then as he got worse and worse
the character get darker darker and then made more more questionable choices I
thought
well hopefully the hook is set now people keep watching
even though they won't like him as much even though they want sympathizers much
won't be whole you now up to that number up so do you guys have seen how
50 E 6 50-54 up so the amp
I people are still room for this can only really
serious I have no
voice you hear about me so much but the you know but
if if thats if you'd still they gonna I mean I want you to be interested in him
but II would not have guessed the character
nothing to a prime but but everything to do with the choices the characters made
I would have guessed at this point
he with black sympathize ability a
but meh not sell for a great number viewers
mmm them
