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.

California Governor Gavin Newsom mocked President Donald Trump by riffing off the presidential "Walk of Fame" Trump unveiled in the White House back in September, gifting us the "Presidential Walk of Fatigue" instead.

In September, Trump's assistant Margo Martin shared a video of a hallway filled with the portraits of former U.S. presidents. Martin announced that "The Presidential Walk of Fame has arrived on the West Wing Colonnade," and the video she shared pans over multiple portraits of former presidents before lingering on an image of Biden's autopen signature.

Fulnecky's instructor Mel Curth, a transgender woman, assigned her students a 650-word essay about how gender stereotypes impact societal expectations of individuals. Fulnecky instead wrote about what the Bible says about "traditional gender roles," arguing that to refer to them as "stereotypes" is "demonic."

A sycophant is a person who "acts obsequiously toward someone important in order to gain advantage." An acolyte is a "true believer who helps carry out orders like a henchman, sidekick, or disciple."

While the words often get used interchangeably, they don't mean the same thing.
