Aaron Paul got his big break on the award-winning fan favorite series Breaking Bad, in which he starred alongside Oscar nominee and Emmy-winner, Bryan Cranston. The pair have remained friends, but Paul remembers a particularly cruel and hilarious prank that Cranston pulled on him while making the series.
On a recent appearance on the hot wing talk show Hot Ones, Paul first praised his co-star, saying of Cranston, “He’s the hardest worker in the room, the most lovable… but he’s also the most immature I’ve ever met in my life. I say that with just love and respect, the list was endless.”
He went on, “I remember on Breaking Bad, he came out of the production office and came up to me and said, ‘It’s OK’ and give me this long hug. I’m like, ‘What are you doing?’ He’s like, ‘At least you go out in a big way, huh?’ And I’m like, ‘What are you talking about?’ He goes, ‘Did you read the latest script?’ I go, ‘No.’ He goes, ‘Well, just read it, and I’m here if you need me.’”
Paul continued, “So, I sprinted into the production office… of course, I go to the final pages [of the script] and nothing happened, I’m still around. But he just made it seem like I died. He would not stop. He would get everybody in on it, like the costume designers said, ‘Hey we gotta do your measurements for the casket.'”
Paul’s character Jesse Pinkman got out of the series, not unscathed per se, but alive, and went on to star in the follow-up Netflix film, El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie. Breaking Bad is currently streaming on Netflix.
