‘Breaking Bad’ Movie, Starring Aaron Paul, Coming to Netflix in October’


On Monday, Netflix plans to announce that it will release a new “Breaking Bad” movie that will center on Pinkman, the excitable meth cook played by Paul, who was last seen in the TV series speeding off in a stolen Chevrolet El Camino to parts unknown.

The film, called “El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie,” was written and directed by Vince Gilligan, the creator of “Breaking Bad,” and will be released on Netflix on Oct. 11. The film is also expected to be broadcast at a later date on AMC, the cable network where the TV series was originally shown from 2008 to 2013.

“It’s a chapter of ‘Breaking Bad’ that I didn’t realize that I wanted,” Paul said in an interview. “And now that I have it, I’m so happy that it’s there.”

Netflix provided only the briefest plot summary of “El Camino,” which states, “In the wake of his dramatic escape from captivity, Jesse must come to terms with his past in order to forge some kind of future.”

Oh my, definitely looking forward to this!!

Enjoy the Movie, once it comes. Never seen BB, but a lot of people I know love it :D

Thanks, I definitely will :D

He better not give up Skinny Pete and Badger.

It’s impressive how under wraps they’ve managed to keep it all, I’ve absolutely no idea what might happen!

I wasn't a fan of the finale (or the final season,a few episodes aside) but I love Jesse so much so I will definitely watch this!

[frelling-tralk.livejournal.com]

Oh really, what was it you didn’t like about the finale? I do know that some people didn’t know how everything got wrapped up so neatly for Walt at the end

And it’s definitely going to be interesting to catch up with Jesse again all these years later, I really can’t predict where the story is going to go at the moment. I remember feeling at the time that Jesse’s prospects weren’t that great and he would probably go back to using again, but presumably Vince will want to go with something slightly more uplifting heh if they’re making an entire movie out of it

It's not just the finale alone but the lead up to it. Like,I was very into the show at the beginning but later not so much anymore. It had these extreme moments of brilliance but most episodes were kinda boring and only threaded water until this ONE moment (except Ozymandias which is of course a masterpiece from beginning to end). Hence why I was already rather eh about everything when I went into the finale and then yes,I really didn't like how things ended for Walt!

I don't know if this is a thing i want but maybe? I didn't think I wanted Better Call Saul either.

Same, I wouldn’t have imagined that the ending of BB needed any kind of follow up, but I can’t deny that it’s exciting to imagine where Vince might take Jesse’s story

ETA And I still need to catch up with Better Call Saul! I admittedly found the first season a bit slow, and so then I never got around to seeing the rest, but what I’ve been hearing about it lately does make me want to catch up at some point

This looks so interesting. The Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul writers haven't let me down yet, so I'm hoping it will feel like an obvious extension of the story.

[frelling-tralk.livejournal.com]

Same, if it were anyone else I’d be slightly worried, but I think we have to trust at this point that Vince knows what he’s doing *g*

Jesse was always my favorite character in the show, so I'll check this out for sure! I had no idea it was happening, thank you! :D

👍 They kept it super under wraps for some reason, for months there were rumours of them filming a BB movie, but nobody would confirm anything until now
