Heisenberg movie debunked: ‘Breaking Bad sequel’ explained

Bryan Cranston as Walter White and the fake Heisenberg poster

Bryan Cranston isn’t returning for Heisenberg, a Breaking Bad movie said to be coming out in 2024.

Cranston’s Walter White in Breaking Bad is one of the most iconic characters in TV history. So, naturally, people are curious if he’ll somehow return in a prequel or spin-off.

He reprised the role twice after the original show’s conclusion: in El Camino, the only film follow-up to the series, and in Better Call Saul‘s final season.

So, what about the rumored Breaking Bad sequel that supposedly is being made? There’s a simple yet unsatisfying explanation.

A Heisenberg movie isn’t happening

The Heisenberg film is fake. If you’ve allowed yourself to get excited about it, you’ve been duped by YODA BBY ABY.

The Facebook page specializes in fake movies and TV news. Previous hits include the made-up Golden Girls revival and a Zac Efron Knight Rider reboot.

Why? Maybe it’s engagement farming, or maybe they see it as an art form. We’ll never know. However, that same poster has been recycled multiple times by YODA BBY ABY and other pages, continually fooling people. Trust me, it’s not happening.

The page made a fake poster

The page shared a poster showing Cranston in a hospital bed, presumably from the gunshot wounds at the end of ‘Felina.’ While it may look convincing, we must reiterate that it’s not real.

The caption reads: “WALTER WHITE RETURNS!!! HEISENBERG brings the iconic Bryan Cranston back to the screen in a pulse-pounding sequel that unfolds after the legendary finale of Breaking Bad. When an ambulance delivers Walter White to a fate seemingly sealed by cuffs and concrete, his most daring escape begins, unveiling two hours of unmatched brilliance and ingenuity.

Coming to theaters in August 2024 from AMC Films, witness Walter White’s final level, now more powerful and merciless than ever in a masterful game of survival and danger.”

A Walter White movie probably won’t ever happen

After the end of Better Call Saul, creator Vince Gilligan confirmed he was ready to move on from the Breaking Bad universe; in other words, we’re done when he says we’re done.

Cranston has also stated he’s ready to let Walter go.
