Final Season Of Better Call Saul To Commence Filming In Early 2021

While Breaking Bad continues to be one of the finest TV shows of all-time, one of the most underrated TV shows of all time has to be its prequel series, Better Call Saul. The series is rarely talked about but has quietly become one of the best shows today and with the series looking to conclude with a sixth and final season, work has been progressing and co-creator Peter Gould is hopeful that production will finally kick off next year. While speaking with Deadline, Better Call Saul co-creator Peter Gould provided an update on the final season, stating,

We’re pretty late in the season. We are in a zoom room everyday. We got to meet for two weeks at the beginning. For the season — it’s like trying to dance in quick sand. It’s a handicap in my book to be working remotely, but I love what we came up with. “have a few more scripts than we usually do”

“our fervent desire is to begin shooting early next year.”

Gould has previously teased that when Better Call Saul comes to an end, we might just see Breaking Bad in a very different light.

“I think we’re going to learn things about the characters in Breaking Bad that we didn’t know,”

“We’re going to learn things about the events of Breaking Bad that we didn’t know. And we’re going to learn things about the fates of a lot of these characters that may surprise people or certainly throw them into a different light. I think we started this 2007, so that’s 13 years of work that’s distilled, this all has to fit together. Hopefully like a perfect jigsaw puzzle. I don’t know if all the joints are going to be absolutely even. I’d sure hope so. We’re going to do our best to sand it down.”

As a fan of both series, I am very excited to see where the series concludes and its connection to Breaking Bad.
