'Better Call Saul' Season 2 News: What Is Next for Jimmy McGill/Saul Goodman?
"Better Call Saul" is coming back for Season 2.
When we last left Saul Goodman (or Jimmy McGill), things were looking up for him as he was successful in his Rolex scam. With Season 2 debuting in February, the question is: What is next for Jimmy?
In an interview with The Wrap, Bob Odenkirk, who plays Jimmy McGill said that he can relate to the younger version of McGill. When asked how he relates to him:
"I do. I like Jimmy McGill. And I relate to him. I relate to the things that drive him, I relate to his personality. He's kind of unstoppable, he's not going to quit even though he's not getting a lot of positive feedback from the people he loves and the people he cares about and the people he's trying to prove himself to," Odenkirk explained. "He's not getting any kind of support, really."
"But he doesn't quit. He senses inside himself, I have skills, I know I can contribute, I just don't know where to put my energy," the actor continued. "And somehow I can't get the world to reward me. So I relate to that, and I think a lot of people would. And I think that the journey that he's on is one that's very relatable, in that he's trying to discover, What is this skill that I have, and where do I belong?"
Odenkirk originally was afraid of joining "Better Call Saul" fearing that it will not live up to its predecessor "Breaking Bad."
He stated: "My reaction -- the fear, the hope -- was tempered by what you said before, which is that I've been doing this since I was 25, when I got my first job as a writer at 'Saturday Night Live.' I've been a professional in show business for 25 years, and I've had success, and I've had a lot of failure, and I've been through all of that stuff. I can go through it again and it won't faze me."
As for the new season, fans of the show wants more "Breaking Bad" references but the writers are only going to do it if the opportunity presents itself.
Don't rule out a "Breaking Bad" reunion. Vince Gilligan wants Bryan Cranston to make an appearance in Season 2. Will Walter White make an appearance?
"Better Call Saul" Season 2 debuts next year. Producers announced that they will start filming Season 2 this weekend. They are even looking for extras, so if you live in the Albuquerque, New Mexico area, here is your chance to be on the show.
