There were many memorable deaths onBreaking Bad: R.I.P., Jane, Hank, Gus, Krazy-8, etc.
Initially, I wanted Walt Jr. to have a good death scene, Mitte tells EW.
Doug Hyun/AMC
I thought they were going to kill me off for a second.
And I thought, Walt Jr. should be brutally murdered.
Pretty much bludgeoned and beaten to death.
Thatd be a good scene for him.
And then I realized financially it wouldnt be good for me.
Did he have anybody in mind who might whack Walt Jr.?
The Cousins, he says.
Mitte had reason to ruminate on Walt Jr.s death.
My writers essentially told me I was drunk.
So, how did Mitte approach the role of a sweet-hearted teen who has cerebral palsy?
It wasnt about creating a disabled character; it was about creating an able-bodied character, he says.
We did the opposite.
These werent contrived characters, there werent artificial characters, these werent just thrown together.
They were thought-out and methodical, and thats what makes them so real.
That whole little second half of that scene was all improv.
I dont really eat breakfast that often, he says.
Im a bacon guy.
Is Mitte interested in more Flynn?
We have not talked about it, he says.
Im open to it.
At the end of the day, we had a hit.
Why ever stop the hit?
And I would always be open to developing more of that, and just continuing the world.
Yeah, why not?
But Im not cheap anymore.
So its going to cost them.
