Overview
- In a new Hollywood Reporter interview, Gilligan left the door open to returning to the franchise but stopped short of committing to any new entry.
- He said he is ready to write a hero rather than another villain or anti-hero after spending roughly 20 years in that world.
- Citing fear of “messing up people’s memories,” he added he would rather leave “a little money on the table” than risk the shows’ legacy.
- He noted there are many possible avenues to revisit the universe and praised collaborators, naming Jesse Plemons, Scott MacArthur, and Scott Shepherd.
- No reboot or spin-off has been announced, with some coverage characterizing rumors that his next projects could emphasize empathy and redemption.
