Here's a lesson: don't tease the rabid fans of an immensely popular show with the possibility of a series revival and then, instead, try to sell them something totally unrelated. That's a lesson that Breaking Bad stars Aaron Paul and Bryan Cranston learned the hard way this week. Read on for details.
After former “Breaking Bad” stars Aaron Paul and Bryan Cranston appeared to hint at a movie based on the series last week, the actors revealed what they were really secretly collaborating on — a new brand of Mezcal.
On Tuesday, Cranston took to social media to share the story behind their new booze.
“We had the time of our lives while shooting Breaking Bad and truly built a very special bond,” the 63-year-old actor wrote. “Knowing that we couldn’t share the screen for quite a while – our thoughts turned to a new project.”
He continued, “We searched high and low all over Oaxaca, met incredible people along the way and after a beautiful yet grueling search throughout that majestic landscape we believed we may have found our place. Our Mezcal. It was on a dirt-road, in a tiny village, hours away from the center of town, we found it and it was perfect. Holy s–t it was perfect. We looked at each other and just simply nodded. This is it. We named it Dos Hombres – two guys on a quest.”
