Summary

• An AI-generated video imagines what characters like Walt, Jesse, Saul, and more would look like in a fantastical medieval setting.
• The video features medieval twists on some of Walt's most iconic lines from the series.
• It's unclear if there will be another Breaking Bad spinoff in the future as Gilligan is currently working on a brand new series for Apple TV Plus.

Breaking Bad enters the world of medieval fantasy in a strange AI video. Created by Vince Gilligan, Breaking Bad first aired on AMC in 2008, introducing audiences to Bryan Cranston's Walter White, a high school chemistry teacher who becomes a drug kingpin after receiving a terminal diagnosis. The show, which concluded in 2013 after five acclaimed seasons, was set in Albuquerque, New Mexico, firmly in the modern day.

An AI-generated video shared by demonflyingfox on Instagram now imagines what the cast of Breaking Bad would look like if the show was instead set during medieval times. Check out the video below:

The video features Walt wearing a wizard's robes and hat, and even puts a medieval twist on one of his classic lines when the AI creation says: "I am the one who smites." Other characters in the video include Jesse, Walt Jr., Saul Goodman, Skinny Pete, Skyler, Jane, Tuco, Hank, and even Hector Salamanca as a king.

Will The World Of Breaking Bad Continue?

Why There Probably Won't Be Another Spinoff Like Better Call Saul Anytime Soon

The Breaking Bad finale concluded what is now widely seen as one of the best TV shows of all time. When it was subsequently announced that the franchise would continue in the form of a prequel for Bob Odenkirk's Saul Goodman, it wasn't clear whether this spinoff would be able to recapture the magic of the original. Better Call Saul, however, ended up being just as critically acclaimed and beloved as the original show. The same can be said for El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie in 2019, which concluded Jesse's (Aaron Paul) story on a thoughtful note.

Since the Better Call Saul finale in 2022, no new projects in the world of Breaking Bad have moved forward. In October 2023, Gilligan said of the franchise that he's wary of returning to the same well too many times and that he'd like to "leave it be" for the time being. He also says in the same interview, however, to "never say never."

Gilligan's next project is a currently untitled Apple TV Plus series starring Better Call Saul star Rhea Seehorn. Few details are known about the project, which is said to have sci-fi elements, but it will presumably continue for additional seasons beyond its two-season order if it's a hit. While it's certainly possible that more Breaking Bad shows eventually come to fruition, it doesn't look like it will be happening anytime soon.
