Another 'Breaking Bad' character is coming to 'Better Call Saul'... kinda

Better Call Saul is calling in another Breaking Bad character next season — but one that not even the most hardcore fans are bound to recognize.

As announced during the Better Call Saul Comic-Con panel Thursday, Tony Dalton will show up in Season 4 as Lalo, a character who was referenced in Breaking Bad but never actually seen.

In fact, it's Saul (née Jimmy) himself who references Lalo in the Breaking Bad Season 2 episode "Better Call Saul."

As a masked Walt and Jesse hold Saul at gunpoint, Saul pins the blame for some unexplained crime on Nacho (played by Michael Mando in Better Call Saul), and then asks if "Lalo" sent them.

At the time, it was just a throwaway line. None of the characters explained who Lalo was, or what he might want, or why he might be angry enough with Saul to send goons after him.

But it looks like we're about to find out, and the Comic-Con audience got a little clue in the form of a first-look photo. In it, Dalton's Lalo is talking to Hector Salamanca (Mark Margolis).

Ugh, we have a feeling that whatever it is, it's gonna spell trouble for poor Nacho.

The Better Call Saul and Breaking Bad cast hinted that Lalo might not be the only familiar(ish) figure resurfacing on Better Call Saul this season. With the show headed into "Breaking Bad territory" at some point soon, there are so many possibilities.

Two who definitely won't appear, however, are Walter White and Jesse Pinkman.

"You will not see Walt or Jesse in Season 4," said executive producer Vince Gilligan. "Not to be a downer, but we don't want to jerk you folks around."

That doesn't mean, though, that they'll never appear on the show. "I suspect that we would be sorely remiss if those characters didn't appear on the show before it ended," he admitted.

Better Call Saul returns Aug. 6 on AMC.
