Better Call Saul S06: Giancarlo Esposito Takes "Gus Fring" Challenge

Not only is the calendar inching closer to April, but it's also inching closer to the return of Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould's Bob Odenkirk & Rhea Seehorn-starring Better Call Saul for its sixth & final season. In honor of AMC's Breaking Bad Season 2 marathon yesterday, the cabler released not only a new teaser but a very cool one-on-one with Tony Dalton and Jonathan Banks where Banks we tasked with giving viewers an overview of Mike Ehrmantraut in 60 seconds or less. This time around, it's Banks who's in the control seat as he offers Giancarlo Esposito (The Mandalorian) the same challenge in offering Gus Fring's backstory. But between Gus's "colorful" past and Esposito's love of the spoken word, could this be a challenge too great for even him?

So for a look at Esposito doing his best to tell us everything we need to know about Gus heading into the final season, check out the following brief featurette:

Now here's a look back at the newest teaser for AMC Better Call Saul, released earlier today. And make sure to stick around after for a look back on what's still to come:
