Cranston Reveals BREAKING BAD Movie Is 'A Possibility'

In an interview with the Los Angeles Times, Bryan Cranston said that a BREAKING BAD movie 'is a possibility.' While the AMC series is set to begin its fifth and final season in July, the actor revealed that the show could wind up on the big screen in the near future. 

"It's not far-fetched," Cranston commented. "I wouldn't mind visiting that possibility," he continued. "And this is coming from a guy who doesn't know anything of how the show's going to end. If it doesn't end up in a total apocalypse, who knows? Maybe we could revisit Walter White a year down the road and see where his life has gone. If he's still alive, that is." 

BREAKING BAD follows protagonist Walter White (Bryan Cranston), a chemistry teacher who lives in New Mexico with his wife (Anna Gunn) and teenage son (RJ Mitte) who has cerebral palsy. White is diagnosed with Stage III cancer and given a prognosis of two years left to live.

With a new sense of fearlessness based on his medical prognosis, and a desire to secure his family's financial security, White chooses to enter a dangerous world of drugs and crime and ascends to power in this world. The series explores how a fatal diagnosis such as White's releases a typical man from the daily concerns and constraints of normal society and follows his transformation from mild family man to a kingpin of the drug trade.
