The only condition that Bob Odenkirk has set to return to the 'Breaking Bad' universe in a long time

Bob Odenkirk has made it clear that he is open to the idea of reprising his role as Saul Goodman, the iconic character that brought him worldwide fame. However, the actor does not believe that such a return will happen in the near future. Despite the fact that the series Better Call Saul concluded three years ago after a critically acclaimed six-season run, the memory of his complex and charismatic portrayal still resonates with fans. Odenkirk has mentioned that, although the possibility of taking on the role again does not displease him, the current circumstances do not seem favorable for that to happen.

Better Call Saul served as a deep exploration of the character Saul Goodman, offering a more nuanced look at his evolution from a modest lawyer to a brilliant con artist. The series was presented as a prequel to Breaking Bad, and its ending, which left the audience reflecting on the protagonist’s choices, is still a topic of conversation among fans of both series.

Although Odenkirk has a strong attachment to the character and the story that has been told over the years, he expresses a cautious attitude when talking about a possible return to this narrative universe. “It is unlikely that I will reprise the role of Saul Goodman in the near future”, he stated, emphasizing the need for any continuation of his story to happen, without a doubt, within the prison from which Saul should never escape. Meanwhile, fans can continue to enjoy his performances and hope that a new twist in the narrative will make Odenkirk reconsider his stance in the future.
