Bryan Cranston Just Did An Impression Of His 'Breaking Bad' Costar Aaron Paul—And It's Spot On

In a video for LADBible with Sam Rockwell where they had to guess what impressions the other was doing, Cranston knocked his impression of Aaron Paul out of the park.

Bryan Cranston can do a mean impression of his Breaking Bad co-star Aaron Paul's character, Jesse Pinkman.

As a participant in a casual game of "First Impressions," Cranston proved he was a worthy competitor when he sat down with LADBible and faced off against his Argyle co-star Sam Rockwell.


In a Freaky Friday-inspired twist, Breaking Bad fans got to see Cranston switching characters to verbalize a familiar Jesse Pinkman greeting.

Cranston, who played Walter White in the epic AMC crime drama, read the game card with the name of his Breaking Bad costar he was instructed to impersonate and said:

"This is gonna be very hard, actually."

"Yo, b*tch," said Cranston in his best Aaron Paul voice.

While he was spot on to viewers, it wasn't enough for Rockwell to guess who Cranston was impersonating on the first go, as he thought Cranston was imitating comedian Andrew Dice Clay.

In all fairness, Clay's signature SoCal drawl and Paul's gruff manner of speech as Jesse are not that dissimilar.

Cranston gave another clue, one that specifically referred to his own Breaking Bad character, and this time he physically laid into his delivery a bit more, stating:

"Yo, Mr. White. B*tch."

To which Rockwell immediately lit up and shouted, "Aaron Paul!"

"Yes, yeah. Very good," Cranston approved.

You can watch Cranston mouthing Jesse Pinkman catchphrases until Rockwell gets it right in this TikTok clip.

However, when it came to impersonating Barbie star Margot Robbie, Cranston demonstrated there was room for improvement.

He gave the cheeriest pageant smile he could muster and flashed his pearly whites, as Barbie does, while greeting imaginary guests in the room with "good morning. It's a beautiful day."

It fell flat.

Rockwell grasped at straws and landed on "Bryan Cranston."

It wasn't until Cranston spelled it out for him by saying "Hi, Ken," that Rockwell got it.

"Barbie, Barbie, Barbie, Barbie...uh, Margot Robbie," guessed the Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri Oscar winner.

It took a while, but he eventually got there.

Sandra Lee, known as "Dr. Pimple Popper" on Lifetime, is well-known for her bedside manner, medical knowledge and ability to share her knowledge in an accessible way, and, of course, her unique approach to dermatological care.

Rob Schneider Dragged For Criticizing Elizabeth Banks' 'Dangerous Rhetoric' After She Called Out White Female Trump Voters

After actor and filmmaker Elizabeth Banks—who played Effie Trinket in The Hunger Games—called out white women who voted for President Donald Trump, MAGA actor Rob Schneider lashed out against what he referred to as her "dangerous rhetoric."

Those who've read the book and seen the film adaptation of The Hunger Games know that Trinket—known for joyfully announcing, "Happy Hunger Games and the odds may be ever in your favor!"—is a mistress of propaganda for a hostile government that forces teenagers to fight to the death every year to intimidate critics and keep society's poorest and most vulnerable in line. Trinket eventually embraces the rebellion.

It seems that when the president you form your entire personality around craters to a catastrophic approval rating even for him, your ship starts to sink too.

Trump's Border Czar Ripped For Hypocrisy After Telling Pope Leo To 'Stay Out Of Politics'

President Donald Trump's border czar Tom Homan was called out for hypocrisy after telling Pope Leo XIV to "stay out of politics" after he clashed with Trump over the widely unpopular war in Iran.

Last week, Pope Leo criticized the war and called on the world "to reject war, especially a war which many people have said is an unjust war, which is continuing to escalate and is not resolving anything."
