One of Breaking Bad's Best Episodes Is Coming to Theaters Soon
One of the most iconic episodes of Breaking Bad will be shown in theaters next month.
Breaking Bad's Season 4 finale, Face Off, is headed to Alamo Drafthouse theaters on September 7. The episode will be shown in honor of "Breaking Bad Day," which is on Walter White's birthday. The showing will be a one-night special event exclusively at Alamo Drafthouse locations, and fans can attend with the purchase of a $10 food/drink voucher. Attendees will be gifted a Heisenberg hat, blue rock candy, Hector's bell, and a Gus Fring half-face mask upon arrival. You can get tickets by clicking here.
For those who don't remember the Season 4 finale (or haven't watched it), the episode sees Walter and Jesse finally trying to take down their boss/nemesis, Gus Fring. It's an incredibly tense showdown with an explosive conclusion, leading to one of the most memorable and iconic moments in television history. Seeing it on your TV is pretty exciting, but witnessing it on the big screen is even more thrilling for Breaking Bad fanatics.
It's not the first time the Breaking Bad franchise has been on the big screen, though. El Camino, the sequel film which follows Jesse Pinkman after being freed from the neo-nazis, had a brief theatrical run alongside its Netflix debut. Unfortunately, it's unlikely we'll get another Breaking Bad film or even a TV series in that world.
Series creator Vince Gilligan has moved on to Pluribus a new Apple TV series with Better Call Saul alum Rhea Seehorn. Gilligan did pitch a GTA-like game for Breaking Bad at one point, but it didn't move forward, unfortunately. Actor Bob Odenkirk has also suggested more Saul Goodman will only be possible if they set a hypothetical show or film in prison, as he doesn't see Goodman going free.
