‘Better Call Saul’ Season 2 Spoilers & News: Creators Want More Kettlemans, Say Show Should Look Different
Although fans of the original "Breaking Bad" series know what eventually happens to Jimmy McGill, also known as Saul Goodman, the show "Better Call Saul" has further developed his character in the prequel series as a "decent person" who eventually turns out to be a drug lawyer, according to Variety.
The DVD that will be released for Season 1 of the show will feature "Kettle commentary" by Jeremy Shamos and Julie Ann Emery. It was previously announced at Variety's annual TV Summit, which was moderated by Debra Birnbaum. That announcement was also followed up by the question of whether or not there would be more Kettlemans in the second season.
"We sure want to," co-creator Peter Gould said.
Season 2 has already filmed six out of the 10 episodes for AMC. Co-creator Vince Gilligan noted that it has a different look than its predecessors because it was filmed on digital video, as opposed to film that was used in the others.
"It's not entirely a happy thing. We finally gave in and joined the future," Gilligan said at the summit. "It's a great camera but I kind of miss film."
Gilligan was referring to the show using a new cutting edge technology, which is a RED digital camera.
As for what to expect out of Season 2, Gilligan and Gould were somewhat vague in their spoilers, probably because, if they gave too much info to their fans, they would be able to add things up pretty quickly.
"I think what happens next is actually going to surprise people. It's not what we thought it would be," Gilligan said about Season 2.
Based on what happened in the first season, it's obvious Saul Goodman was not always the devious lawyer with his purse strings attached to Walter White.
"The fact that people have embraced Bob's [Odenkirk] performance as Jimmy McGill and really gotten into this character, the audience feels the same as us, which is that we love him so much, we're a little bit sad he's going to turn into Saul Goodman," Gould told the summit panel. "There's something tragic about the fact that this guy who is so open-hearted and essentially a decent person becomes this drug lawyer. It creates a lot of tension in the show."
