The Spotlight: Bryan Cranston would happily bring back Walter White for 'Better Call Saul,' 'Before they finished the sentence I would be on a plane to Albuquerque'

*I'm keeping this completely spoiler free so don't worry about your eventual plans for a 'Breaking Bad' binge. I know you'll get to it.*
Heading into 2018's fourth season of AMC's Better Call Saul, we're wading into some interesting waters.
Let's just say Bob Odenkirk's character arc is taking the "Breaking Bad" prequel spinoff series into some familiar territory.
Breaking Bad capped off its incredible five-season-ish run back in 2013, but star Bryan Cranston isn't ruling out a quasi reappearance from his iconic Walter White character.
"I just don't know," Cranston told Rich Eisen this week. "Vince Gilligan, Peter Gould, who run that show, I love them. I owe them so much. I would do anything for them. Before they finished the sentence I would be on a plane to Albuquerque if they wanted me to do something."
It might be a little tricky to pull off, but everything's made easier with Cranston on board. Fan service be damned. If anyone can weave that cameo into a story like this, it's Gilligan.

Not happy.
Ugh this is such a misleading headline quote! Hey @variety this is what I actually said:

“When there’s more balance on set in terms of more women on the crew, more women in positions of power — it’s just a healthier set to be on. Everyone’s happier. It’s a great place to be.” https://t.co/oAdCbESOc1
@Variety misquotes to create click bait for multiple commentators to rail against feminists. By putting that misleading headline out there, they are working against gender equality and are part of the problem. BALANCE is what my quote was about.

This is why you get that tattoo.
What a devoted #StarWars fan! If @RobbieBarstool was actually committed enough to tattoo a lightsaber on his forearm-the least I could do was hoist it proudly (or have him actually committed) The entire @GMA audience was beyond wonderful-Thank you ALL! ❤️ pic.twitter.com/VDfFrvQzH8
