Overview

  • In an interview on NBC's Today, Odenkirk said he would reprise Saul Goodman if Vince Gilligan or Peter Gould led a new project.
  • He emphasized that any continuation would need to unfold inside a prison setting.
  • He tempered expectations by noting the creators and cast have moved to other work, including Gilligan’s Apple TV+ series Pluribus, set to debut Nov. 7, 2025 with Rhea Seehorn.
  • He also pointed to scheduling constraints for himself and the creators as an obstacle to quick development.
  • He reflected that the role reshaped his career yet carries emotional weight, which influences how and when he might revisit it.
