Vince Gilligan "desperately wants" Walt and Jesse to show up on Better Call Saul

There are a lot of questions hanging over Better Call Saul—if we’re being honest, it’s the kind of show where “questions hanging” is a big part of the appeal—but one of the most lingering has been that of when it’ll finally, fully collide with its parent series, Breaking Bad, and its meth-cooking “heroes,” Jesse Pinkman and Walter White. (The show has teased its Breaking Bad connections prominently over its first three seasons—most recently with the introduction of Giancarlo Esposito’s Gus Fring—but has held off on taking any trips to a particular Albuquerque car wash.)
But the time may have finally come for Jimmy McGill to meet his destiny, with the show’s creator, Vince Gilligan, telling reporters he “desperately wants” BB stars Aaron Paul and Bryan Cranston to appear on his newest series. Gilligan made the comments during a cast-crew reunion for Breaking Bad set up for an Entertainment Weekly cover shoot this week, telling interviewers “I desperately want to see both of them on Better Call Saul,” and mentioning “the buzz” that went through the show’s set when Cranston made a recent visit.
