The first trailer for El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie presented viewers to a police interrogation room. There, Skinny Pete (Charles Baker) was interrogated by the police about the location of his good friend and most-wanted fugitive Jesse Pinkman (Aaron Paul). “I have no idea where he is,” insisted Skinny Pete. “Don’t know where he’s headed either. North, south, east, west, Mexico, the moon — I don’t have a clue. But yo, even if I did, I wouldn’t tell you.”
Audience will finally received their first glimpse of Jesse, who was last seen dramtically busting through the gates of a Nazi compound in his first few moments of freedom after serving as a meth slave. The new trailer did not reveal much about this unexpected and mysterious Breaking Bad movie, but it showed Jesse parked in Todd’s El Camino in the dead of the night in the middle of… well, nowhere, head shaved, on the run.
This trailer: the film focuses on the next chapter of Jesse following the events of Breaking Bad. According to the official logline, “Jesse must come to terms with his past in order to forge some kind of future.” The cast is being kept under wraps, though Netflix has confirmed that Jesse’s buds Badger (Matt Jones) and Skinny Pete (Charles Baker) make appearances.
The Emmy-winning drama — which followed terminally ill chemistry teacher Walter White (Bryan Cranston) and not-so-stellar former student Jesse as they created a meth empire — ran from 2008 to 2013. In 2015, Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan returned to the world by co-creating the Breaking Bad prequel Better Call Saul, and he wrote and directed this two-hour film. Netflix will begin streaming the film October 11, and will make it available in movie theaters across the country the weekend of October 11-13.
Breaking Bad celebrated the 10th anniversary of its premiere last year.
