There's Reportedly A 'Breaking Bad' Movie In The Works—And Fans Have Mixed Feelings About It

There's Reportedly A 'Breaking Bad' Movie In The Works—And Fans Have Mixed Feelings About It
Twitter

Alright, Breaking Bad fans, the moment you've been waiting for is here: there's a Breaking Bad movie coming!


Or at least, some of you were waiting for it... some of you seem a bit unenthusiastic.

Either way, it's happening! Series creator Vince Gilligan is at work on the script as we speak. No word on whether it'll be a movie-theater movie or an online movie, or what structure it will take--will it be a prequel, or pick up where the show left off? But the Albuquerque Journal has confirmed that the film is happening, and that it "tracks the escape of a kidnapped man and his quest for freedom." Which has many fans speculating that the film will center on Aaron Paul's character Jesse Pinkman.



Which was very exciting for some fans who have apparently been craving a proper ending to the Pinkman story.



And many other fans were just elated to have a Breaking Bad movie at all, whether it centers on Pinkman or not!




But overall, the fans seem... well, kind of ambivalent. This seems to always happen with beloved TV shows--there's always debate on how things ended, and especially about whether or not they should be revisited. People still argue about the way The Sopranos ended, and that was 15 years ago. It's part of the territory, it seems, of a beloved, high-quality show.

And Breaking Bad is no different. Because many fans seem to feel that regardless of how Jesse Pinkman's story wrapped up, the series ended perfectly, and they are not interested in revisiting the story. If it ain't broke, don't fix it!





But like it or not, the movie is happening! No word yet on whether Paul or series star Bryan Cranston will be back, but Greenbrier starts shooting in its usual New Mexico locations in just a couple weeks, and is schedule to wrap up in February.

Get excited, Breaking Bad fans! Or don't I guess! Whatever you think!

MAGA Politicians Get Blunt Factcheck After Trying To Blame Biden For Screwworm Emergency In Texas

Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins and Kansas Republican Senator Roger Marshall were called out after blaming a rise in screwworm infections in Texas cattle on former President Joe Biden—even though it was President Donald Trump's administration that cut funding for programs that track the parasite.

Earlier, the Department of Agriculture announced that a case of New World Screwworm—a flesh-eating parasitic fly—has been detected in a three-week-old calf near La Pryor, Texas, about 30 miles from the U.S.-Mexico border. The discovery marks the parasite's arrival in the U.S. after it spread northward through Central America and Mexico over recent years.

Republicans have alleged fraud took place but many of the fraud allegations appear to stem from a misunderstanding of how California counts votes, particularly the time required to complete the process.

Savannah Guthrie Opens Up About What She Tells Her Kids Amid Her Mom's Disappearance In Emotional 'Today' Clip

Some say that parenting is an impossible job, with an unending list of decisions and possible missteps, but parenting might feel uniquely impossible to someone in Savannah Guthrie's position.

Guthrie's mother, 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie, went missing from her home at the end of January. Her absence was first noted when she did not appear at church service that Sunday. One of her doors was discovered ajar and a single image of a blurry figure was caught on camera, and there's been no sign of her or her whereabouts since.
