That's crazy that he just lives with the knowledge that he's already played the greatest role he'll ever play... That's gotta be such a bitter sweet feeling.
Most of the actors doesnt even come close to that opportunity, he must be really proud, some will watch this series 100 years from now. He immortalised himself.
A great feeling he’s basically immortalized
Bob probably feels the same with saul
The show and his performance is timeless and historic… and he accomplished this in his mature years.. now he’s an absolute legend. It’s more sweet than bitter!
@@marceloaguires absolutely! Two GOAT characters and shows!!!!!
“The greatest role of my life” Bryan Cranston - and he brought Walter White to life for us. 👏🏻
O oo o o
I dunno Brian, "Your Honor" is shaping up to be pretty damn good
I heard an interview where Anthony Hopkins referred to Bryan Cranston and his Breaking Bad character as the best acting he has ever seen.
Correct. Mr. Hopkins wrote a personal letter to Mr. Cranston, telling him about how outstanding his performance was.
@@shoWbitz I bet hella $$$ Bryan Cranston has that thing framed
@@Afrimusican shoot, I would do it if I were Bryan.
gandolfini was better 🤜🏼🤜🏼
@@vibinwpsilocybin1424 not even close
Yes Howard, actors have to memorize scripts. I can’t believe you stumbled upon such a revelation.
Next time, he’ll ask a classically trained musician whether he knows how to read sheet music.
Broderick delivering the line "I am the danger..." will be laughable.
Skyler you are not in danger. You just can't think of anything else to do. Let's go to the Cubs game.
Cusack would have killed it. Matthew Broderick, not so much. LOL.
Funny this is I’m sure a lot of people would have said the same thing about Bryan Cranston had he not got the role for WW and people found out he was considered.
@@Two_But_Not_Two I can't see either Cusack or Broderick shaving their heads for the role. 😆
I heard Jerry Seinfeld was also considered for the role. "Hey what's the deal with all this danger????"
Let’s be honest. He’s a better actor than both of them. He can be vulnerable and scary.
I don't know.....maybe a little. Cusack's pretty amazing. The character from Being John Malkovich is every bit as good as walter white in my opinion.
They're all pretty amazing actors.
@@doublestrokeroll lol
It definitely took me a few episodes of me calling him Malcolm's dad before I started calling him Walter White. However, once Heisenburg came out, that Malcolm dad went out the window.
Not having ever watched Malcolm in the Middle, I had no preconceptions going in. I mean...I knew there was that show and he played the dad...but nothing really beyond that.
Bryan Cranston as Hal was also genius but in a different way.
@@dgxkeyboards4535 the tighty whities important to both stories
Humble that's what makes him wonderful
Walter White is quite possibly the greatest character in TV shows..
Nope, that would be Tony Soprano, but WW is definitely 2nd
Along with Tony Soprano ..
@@jeff7764 no Walter White is the best drama character of all time, because of his evolution, but if we’re to talk about the best character of any genre, then it’s going to Homer Simpson. That’s a fact
Elliot Alderson and Walter white the GOATs
Jimmy mcgill
Always LOVED Cranston. Incredible actor
Going back and watching Hal speedwalking or rollerskating is just incredible after seeing Walter/Heisenberg be one of the greatest characters of all time
Thank you for the video! ☺♥
Choosing Albuquerque of all places was another good decision by Vince Gilligan
Bryan Cranston knocked it out of the park-no question. However, Cusack would have been excellent too. He spent the first half of his career playing nice guys, and he's been evolving into more complex characters, and this would have been a nice chance to play a megalomaniacal character. He could have done that nice balance. I hope he gets the chance to do something equally good.
He's decent but Bryan Cranston is far superior. It's not even close.
No
I think they have a certain look all 3 but it’s just the acting and what they bring idk how weird it’d feel or if it’d be the same or worse
I would of loved to of seen a John Cusack version, really like that dude
I cannot imagine anyone else playing that role of Walter white
In another interview I saw he said he regularly gets asked for Walter White's "recipe."
Its hard to think of anyone else playing him, totally defined by Cranston. But I could honestly somewhat imagine Cusacks take on such a character too.
He’s such a pro! Respect ✊
Broderick and Cusack would have been ok. They’re very talented. Cranston is at an entirely different level. Difference between a pro and a hall of famer.
I’m probably in the minority here but I think Broderick would have done a fantastic job. Probably not as good as Cranston. But I look at his performance in Election and think he could have done a pretty good Walter White.
The end is meaningfull: you gotta do your best with anything becomes it might be the greatest thing that would happen to you in your life.
Obviously everything Cranston touches turns to gold, but damn I can picture that Cusack would've been really good
I was thinking the exact same thing...Broderick ?..not so much
@@roccopatrone8843 we are in complete agreement on this, although it woulda made for a hell of a sequel to ferris bueller's day off
Yea man. I’m totally with you, Cusack would’ve been great.
I wouldve probably watched the show if he was in it
Would’ve loved Cusack he’s got the same features that Bryan Cranston brought to Breaking Bad and Jason Bateman brought to Ozark. Would like a series with him, no matter the content
John Cusack that's interesting
Yea, Bryan nailed it but Cusack would’ve been amazing.
I want to see him in that episode of X-files
It’s on RUclips somewhere. Its a good episode, you could really see the basis of Walter and where it all came from
I agree, it was a good episode
a small clip here ruclips.net/video/EXxlJfalvrk/видео.html
"Drive" season 6, episode 2.
It was really good, highly recommended watching it
Damn Howard interrupts him all the time
Welcome to the Stern universe.
That's why it's called "The Howard Stern" show I guess. lol
I know. I wish he would just stfu
Howard is in love with his own voice
1:27 brilliant.
Thanks everyone.
Give me the formula!
Holy crap!
I love Hal....
I cannot think of any flaws with the way he played that character.
The episode aired shortly after Season 4 aired and yet Bryan's confidence that the writers woudn't end the show in a "bullshit story" tells you all you need to know about the crew.
can we have interviews from yesterday rather than yesteryear?
I can see a version of this story with John Cusack. It'll be a much, MUCH, different story, but I can see it.
There’s a certain relief in knowing you’ve already had the best you’re going to have in life.
Relief or depression? 🥴
@@chiefscheiderrelief
I'm thinking of watching the series. Is it good?
Yes definitely, then watch Better call Saul.
Yes. Also great because each season is better than the last so you don’t have to worry about the quality ever dipping.
@@sparkymcplug3765 shouldnt you watch Better Call Saul first? i thought that happened before Breaking Bad. Especially now that BCS is finished
Scott u MUST watch it. I'm a 74 yrs young lady & it blew My mind!! It'll blow yours also 👍👍👍
If you do you absolutely have to watch El Camino and Better Call Saul after. Best universe ever created
Seems like they were ahead of their time, originally thinking of those actors. Like later the folks at “Ozark” deciding that Bateman was perfect.
Spoiler alert 🚨 !!! The scene in the desert when Hank.. y’know… Ends…. That whole scene is the only scene I can remember in my existence, where I had to stop the series to literary get my puls down, or else i could have risked a heart attack or something. I remember thinking to my self: I will never watch a series this good again. Because it’s impossible. My fav of all time is The Sopranos, but man, Breaking Bad was something else. Wow… just…..wow. 9,5 on IMDB with like 1,6 million votes? Can’t beat that. It’s unbeatable I think.
I was shocked beyond belief when hank was killed as well. Hit a part of my emotions I didn't know existed. He was my favorite character.
For me it's the Muhammad Ali of tv shows
@@KD400_ 😂👍🏻
for me it was the 4th season episode where walter white laughs maniacally when skylar tells she gave all the money to ted. That was the moment i thought to myself this is the greatest show i'll ever watch.
The best acting performance in the history of acting imo
We are all forgetting Aaron Paul’s portrayal of Jesse. I thought that beat Bryan Cranston’s.
King
This is the Greatest role of my life - Walter White aka Bryan Cranston.
Tonight the Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul universe concludes...
Been into it for soo long it’s def a rough feeling
This interview is from?
The Howard Stern Show
I might be wrong but I also thought I saw that they were also considering Bob Saget and Jerry Seinfeld too as WW which ngl I’d be curious to see
Rip Ben Stern
We’re done WHEN I SAY WE’RE DONE
I remember reading the script for a Better Call Saul scene, and it didn't seem "verbatim" at all. There was some improv.
He looks so young here
bryan cranston is unreplaceable
I would love to see and imagine if john cusack got the role, i mean he's a good actor also
Cusack could have done it possibly, but he's a bit too neurotic and doubtful to be Walter White, let alone Heisenberg.
Good stuff loved Bryan as the dentist in Seinfeld
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I swear I heard Vince himself in an interview say he wrote the role of Walter white with Cranston in mind
After 20 seconds into the interview confirmed. So how was he not the first choice? Click bait title.
Good actor
from Walter White to LBJ..... That is talent.
One of my favorite X-Files episode is the one he's in.
In Valen's Name
Bryan's role was perfect in BB, definitely Grammy performance
Huh?
Give him a Tony and an Oscar too.
@@daveclark8337 and the World Cup trophy for good measure?
they should do a BB Musical, and then put out the songs on CD for a Grammy consideration.
He should've gotten a Grammy for that version of "A Horse with No Name" in the shower alone...
Breaking bad ended perfectly. if Sopranos is #1 best all time (which i think it is), the ending to Sopranos was "meh" i wanted more, Breaking Bad ending was just spectacular just perfect bliss to an amazing show.
John cussack would have made the whole drama into a comedy. And it still would have been amazing.
Cusack yelling is gold.
Cussack is in my top three actors list, along with Jim Carrey and whoever gets the third position. I fucking love John cussack. And Jim Carrey.
Jack black is cool too.
Really? I thought it would be the other way around. I think Cusack doing it would be darker than Cranston.
That’s hilarious thinking that John Cusack or Mathew Broderick is a bigger name than his now
Bryan Cranston and his character Walter White act so similar
That’s why there are so many burnt down trailers in LA.
Stern is such a simpleton.
Cusack would’ve nailed it. Would love to have seen that. Cranston IS Walter White but Cusack would’ve been great.
Cusack wouldn't have been able to pull it off. The show would have flopped.
@@DustinHawke In an alternate reality you'd be saying this about Cranston
@@DustinHawke Agreed. Zero range.
Broderick and Cusak would have been a disaster.
Walter white is my hero
God I'm so happy they didn't pick Matthew Broderick. Anytime I ever see him all I can think about is how he killed two people.
method actor
I think Miss Grey was giving him a hândy or a you-know-what when the accident happened. Both of them conveniently have no memory of how they ended up on the wrong side of the road.
Hal > WW
Seriously. Who is Hal?
Hal = WW
It’s kind of like apples and oranges but Bryan nails both roles
Cusak would also have been good!
I thought Tim Whatley DDS was Cranston’s greatest role.
Mazeltov
Hal was his greatest role
Cranston did a phenomenal job but I'll bet John Cusack would have done pretty good also.
I beg to differ: Hal was the greatest role of his life
Just because we used to watch malcolm in the middle with the family on tv 📺
Hard disagree. But it is a great sitcom for sure
Bryan looks good for his age 👍🏼
Hope he’s not kidnapped and forced to cook meth now that everyone knows he had DEA cooking lessons. 🤣
😂😂
Matthew Broderick would have been interesting
well Bryan Cranston wasn’t that big before Breaking Bad so it makes sense
Hmmm Cusack... Could have been brilliant
Cusack would have killed it. Matthew Broderick, not so much. LOL.
B.A. Baracus should have got the role.
Tim Whatley was his greatest role.
Thank God it wasn't Matthew Broderick
Oh God Cusack would've been a joke
If Vince decided to cast Matthew Broderick instead,then the show wouldn't have lasted nor got the awards it did
Matthew Broderick as Walter White would have been a transcendental experience.
What about Fei Long!?
I skipped the first season because I thought it would be cheesy but wow, i own my mistakes
No disrespect but broderick or cusack would have been a joke lol
Matthew Broderick? Seriously? That would have ruined the whole show.
Broderick and Cusack make zero sense. I could see Edward Norton.
Too baby faced imo, cranston has an older presence which fits more
Not saying Bryan Cranston wasn’t absolutely perfect for this role, but I could see Matthew Broderick playing it. John Cusack, not so much …
