AMC Approves 'Breaking Bad' Spinoff That Will Focus on Saul Goodman

After the fifth and final season of Breaking Bad ends this month, AMC's hit drama will live on through a spinoff about criminal lawyer Saul Goodman. Tentatively titled Better Call Saul, the series will serve as a prequel to Breaking Bad's five seasons.

AMC and Sony Pictures Television revealed Wednesday they signed a licensing deal for the spinoff, adding in a joint announcement that the new series "will focus on the evolution of the popular Saul Goodman character before he ever became Walter White’s lawyer."

Actor Bob Odenkirk plays Saul Goodman. No further details were divulged, but it appears a AMC-driven "Better Call Saul" website -- full of client testimonials -- already exists.
