City Of Albuquerque Unveils Breaking Bad Statues

Walter And Jesse Immortalised In Bronze

Breaking Bad is the TV show which put Albuquerque, New Mexico on the map and the city has just unveiled bronze statues of Walter White and Jesse Pinkman there…

“We’re humbled by this,” Bryan Cranston, who won four Primetime Emmy Awards for his performance as Walter White, spoke at the event. “We’re delighted, slightly embarrassed to have statues of you. And when they first came to me and said we want to make two statues of you, and I thought, ‘Wow, fantastic, Heisenberg and Walter White!’ I’m really grateful….There’s no preparation for saying you’re getting a statue. I’m just rather grateful that it’s indoors so that the pigeons won’t crap on our heads.”

The statues of their characters can be seen at the Albuquerque Convention Center in the city.

Next week’s episode of Better Call Saul features both as it flashes back to when Saul was first introduced in Breaking Bad.
