Last week, one day after Better Call Saul star Bob Odenkirk said the Breaking Bad movie was completed, Netflix blew up the internet with the first teaser trailer for El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie.
Unfortunately, Aaron Paul’s Jesse Pinkman and Bryan Cranston’s Walter White did not appear in the trailer. All we got to see from the original show was Skinny Pete, played by Charles Baker, being grilled by police for the whereabouts of Jesse.
As far as a synopsis of El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie, all we have so far is, “In the wake of his dramatic escape from captivity, Jesse must come to terms with his past in order to forge some kind of future.”
However, Jesse Pinkman himself, Aaron Paul, has offered up a suggestion that might get us in the proper frame of mind when the Breaking Bad movie drops on Netflix on October 11.
“Cats out of the bag…and the bag is in the river. Here’s a moment from Breaking Bad to slowly prepare you all for what’s to come,” Paul tweeted.

Yes, he knows he misspelled El Camino, don’t @ him.

The scene Paul is referencing is from Season 3, Episode 7 titled “One Minute” and shows Jesse laying into his mentor Walter White for the way he’s been treated by the drug kingpin.
“Ever since I met you, everything I ever cared about is gone, ruined, turned to shit, dead,” Pinkman says to White. “Ever since I hooked up with the great Heisenberg. I have never been more alone. I have nothing! No one. Alright? And it’s all gone! Get it? No, why would you even care? As long as you get what you want, right? You don’t give a shit about me.”
So at least there’s that, because during an interview with the New York Times, Paul admitted that he was forbidden from revealing anything about the plot of the movie.
He did, however, add that when he finished reading the script for El Camino, written by Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan, “I couldn’t speak for a good 30, 60 seconds. I was just lost in my thoughts. As the guy who played the guy, I was so happy that Vince wanted to take me on this journey.”
Sounds pretty good to me. Bitch.
