14 DAY TRIAL // The "Breaking Bad" spinoff will be called “Better Call Saul” and Netflix has just acquired the international rights to it. This new AMC series will be made available online for streaming after the first season will air on TV.
Apparently, the series will focus on Saul Goodman, the mall-based super lawyer, years before he became Walter White's attorney. The studio describes his adventures as, “From parking tickets to mass murder, from slip-and-fall to bond frauds, Saul handles it all.”
Creators of the show, Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould, revealed that the new show would have more comedic moments than its predecessor, but still retain some dramatic elements.
The role of Saul Goodman will be played by Bob Odenkirk, as in the original series, and Jonathan Banks will reprise his role as Mike Ehrmantraut, Saul's former private detective.
The series comes to TV in the early fall of 2014, banking on the huge success of the “Breaking Bad” series.
