“Breaking Bad” fans: Bryan Cranston may have changed your life. Seriously, when fans of the epic AMC series were just finally beginning to come to terms with the death of Walter White, it seems like the chemistry-teach-turned-meth-King, may have one last trick left up his sleeve. The “Breaking Bad” finale “Felina” was the 62nd overall episode of the now iconic series and ended with Walt fulfilling his purpose. He seemingly succumbed to the gun shot wounds he received while engaged in his final scuffle with Jesse.
Just as Walt collapses to the ground in Todd’s lab, the police storm the facility but only to discover a motionless Walter White with an eerily satisfied smirk on his face. Most fans took this to mean that the originator of Blue Sky had finally met his maker and was in a better less hectic place. But what if they were wrong, and Vince Gilligan, the creator of “Breaking Bad” created the finale to serve, not as the final chapter, but the beginning of a new one? Could Walter White be alive? After a CNN interview with the show’s star Bryan Cranston, these once Internet crackpot “methpot” theories are becoming more believable, and we can’t believe it!
“I’m going to ask you, really, seriously, I wasn’t so sure that you died, I really wasn’t," CNN's Ashleigh Banfield said in an interview with Cranston on Thursday night. "Your eyes were open and I thought, ‘What if the police just take him into custody, he gets better, breaks out and just goes nuts?'"
Cranston responded, “Hey, you never saw bags zip up or anything." Banfield, quickly realizes what Cranston is implicating, then directly asks Cranston, “Is he dead?” To which Cranston responds, “I don't know.” Oh Walt, even out of character you haunt fans dreams and keep them up at night! But wait, the best part of the interview is yet to come. CNN’s Banfield refused to give up on the Walter White trail, and asks, “No movie? No nothing? No Walter White ever again?” Cranston says, “Never say never,” complete with an almost giddy grin.
Could it be true? Is Walter White alive? If he is, does the satisfying end of “Breaking Bad” seem less so? For as much as I love “Breaking Bad,” I don’t like to be duped, and I don’t like when characters miraculously come back to life. So while I would love to see another batch of Blue Sky, I don't think it would have the same zeal if Walter White came back from the dead. What do you think? Let us know in the comment section below. Do you want to see Walter White again? Or should we let him rest in peace?
