Better Call Saul: Gilligan & Gould Share Some Season 6 Trailer News

For fans of Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould's Bob Odenkirk & Rhea Seehorn-starring Better Call Saul, this Thursday, March 10, is going to be a very big day. In fact, it's going to be such a big day that Gilligan and Gould have taken to social media to announce just how big of a day it's going to be. Because with the sixth & final season hitting next month, fans will get to learn a little more about what fate has in store for Odenkirk's Jimmy McGill aka Saul Goodman aka Gene Takovic, Seehorn's Kim Wexler, and others, as well as how the series plans to hand off to the "Breaking Bad" universe with the release of the official trailer.

Here's a look at Gilligan and Gould sharing the good-to-bittersweet news that the official trailer for the final season drops this Thursday (so start stalking social media accounts now):

Recently, Odenkirk shared some thoughts with Empire in an interview that took place shortly before filming wrapped. "I'm just trying not to get Covid, and show up and do a fucking great job with this awesome show, and this amazing ending," Odenkirk explained as production neared its end. But the award-winning actor has nothing but praise for the show's final run, describing the finale as "this powerful, surprising, subtle, kind of low-key piece that's been written with the greatest integrity by [co-creator] Peter Gould and the team of writers."

But as the worlds of "Saul Goodman" and Jimmy McGill begin to merge, Odenkirk makes it clear that as much as he's been enjoying the challenge of tackling those personas? Don't assume that means he's a fan of both personas. "I mean, people ask me if I like Saul Goodman. The answer is no. I like Jimmy McGill. Saul Goodman is the kind of person I would avoid, pretty much at all costs, for a million reasons. Not the least is fashion sense. Keeping those two people in the same body, and having them matter and connect up, can be a challenge for the writers and for me, but it's been a great, great effort to try to make it work," Odenkirk explained. "I can't wait for people to see this final season. There's so many different places it goes, and there's so much happening. It's amazing." Get ready for a bittersweet goodbye."

The extended 13-episode Season 6 kicks things off with a two-episode premiere on Monday, April 18 at 9 p.m. ET/PT. With the season split into two parts, viewers will have seven episodes to process before a break ahead of the series' final run of episodes beginning July 11. Now here's a look at the two newest mini-teasers that were released to coincide with the news of the show's return, followed by an overview of the sixth & final season:

Better Call Saul's final season concludes the complicated journey and transformation of its compromised hero, Jimmy McGill (Bob Odenkirk), into criminal lawyer Saul Goodman. From the cartel to the courthouse, from Albuquerque to Omaha, season six tracks Jimmy, Saul and Gene as well as Jimmy's complex relationship with Kim (Rhea Seehorn), who is in the midst of her own existential crisis. Meanwhile, Mike (Jonathan Banks), Gus (Giancarlo Esposito), Nacho (Michael Mando) and Lalo (Tony Dalton) are locked into a game of cat and mouse with mortal stakes.
