'Better Call Saul' season 3 spoilers: Bryan Cranston hints 'Breaking Bad' character could return

(Facebook/Better Call Saul)According to Bryan Cranston, there could be another familiar face that fans will recognize in "Better Call Saul" season 3

With the third season of "Better Call Saul" fast approaching, fans are looking forward to finding out who could return to the small screens from "Breaking Bad."

The "Breaking Bad" spinoff series is expected to bring some familiar faces to the story. That being said, there are rumors indicating that Bryan Cranston will be back to play the role of Walter White in the season ahead.

However, Cranston was able to share some interesting insights about the rumors. According to Paste Magazine, he explained that although he is happy to have been part of an iconic television series, he is convinced that it's best to let go of things.

Despite this, the actor still teased a possibility for his return. Cranston revealed that he recently visited the set of the companion series in Albuquerque where he was able to speak to the show's executive producer regarding his character's return. He said, "I told Vince [Gilligan], if you want me to be on the show, I'll be there in a second."

With that, many fans are curious as to how the character could be reintroduced to the series since it takes place six years before the events of "Breaking Bad." 

Meanwhile, although he did not confirm the return, the lead actor of "Better Call Saul," Bob Odenkirk, teased that the villain Gus Fring (played by Giancarlo Esposito) could be back with more obstacles for the characters.

Odenkirk told Conan O'Brien when he appeared on the latter's talk show: "Well the writers always do clever things, there's little clues all over the show, visual clues, and one of the things they have done...somebody worked out the puzzle that the acronym or the first letter of each episode of last season spelled out a sentence, 'Fring's Back.'"

Fans will see the return of "Better Call Saul" on AMC sometime next year.
