Breaking Bad Premiere Episode Promises to be Riveting, Charlie Ross to do a Cameo, Hit AMC Drama Series' Premiere Party
Breaking Bad's premiere episode of the final eight episodes promises to be "riveting" from the opening scene to the closing.
The Hollywood Reporter reports that the premiere episode, written by Peter Gould, is "riveting from start to finish." The opening scene is a flash-forward and Hank (Dean Norris) will be the backbone when the AMC's hit drama series returns for its swan-song on August 11, 2013. Norris had told TV Line, the final eight episodes of Breaking Bad, "will hit you like a freight train."
American television talk show host and journalist, Charlie Ross, will don the actor's hat for a cameo in the penultimate season of Breaking Bad, according to a report by The Huffington Post.
Bryon Cranston and Aaron Paul had arrived in an RV -- probably borrowed from Heisenberg and Pinkman -- on Wednesday night to the premiere party for the cast of 'Breaking Bad., the final premiere party for the hit, critically acclaimed drama series.
The Huffington Post reported that the RV sported the first season received bullet holes that were spewing smoke and had a blue glow inside. All inspired by the meth cooking in the show, there were blue-meth rock candies on the menu, themed cocktails, and Breaking Bad's creator Vince Gilligan's head atop a cake.
"Cranston raised more than $300,000 through Omaze.com for The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children by allowing donors the chance to win a trip to the premiere in the RV," according to The Hollywood Reporter.
The first glimpse of the future Kingpin Heisenberg (Bryon Cranston) was in the sixth episode of Season 1. The mild-mannered Chemistry school teacher had stepped out of his behind the curtain, comfort zone to confront the Mexican drug-lord Tuco (Raymond Cruz) and get away, without a scratch.
The end of Heisenberg is likely to happen in one of the final eight episodes, or will he escape and become just the Kingpin, fugitive Heisenberg. Hank, the DEA agent and his brother-in-law, may speed-up his end, now that he knows that Heisenberg and Walt are not two people but are the names of one person. What is Walter going to do?
"He lives moment to moment. He doesn't have the luxury of retrospective thought," Cranston said in an interview to The Hollywood Reporter. "He's trying to stay alive."
Breaking Bad has scored 11 nominations at the Primetime Emmy Awards, 2013, including for the outstanding drama, outstanding actor and two for out for outstanding supporting-actors.
