Bryan Cranston Says Walter White May Have Survived Breaking Bad Series Finale

Breaking Bad ended with Walter White (Bryan Cranston) taking a bullet to the stomach, which caused him to slowly bleed and pass away on the floor of a meth lab as the police came rushing into the room. But is there a chance Walt survived?

Cranston appeared on CNN on Thursday to hype his latest movie, Godzilla, and host Ashleigh Banfield asked some Breaking Bad questions. Specifically, did the man known as Heisenberg possibly make it through the ordeal in the series finale?

"You never saw a bag zip up or anything," Cranston said with a smile. "Never say never."

This is likely just some playful ribbing on Cranston's part to make fans of the beloved series go a little crazy with theories of how Walt could have survived. But it's at least fun to think about, right?

In that interview, Cranston also talked about his guest-starring role as Patrick Crump on The X-Files, which put him in the same space as Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan. How did Cranston get the part? "I just happened to have the right hair," he said. Ironic for a man who would later shave his head for five years of television.

In other news, the "Spoiler Chat" column at E! Online reports that Anna Gunn, who played Skyler White on Breaking Bad, could appear on the new series Better Call Saul:

"Seth: I saw your article the other day about how Anna Gunn may be coming to Better Call Saul. Are there any other Breaking Bad characters who are set to appear?  
We've got a strong feeling that many of our favorite Breaking Bad characters could be popping up here and there in the AMC spinoff. However here's one thing we know for sure: In the very first episode of the highly anticipated series, fans will meet a handful of middle aged women who will appear consistently throughout the entire season. Our personal favorite is Mrs. Tran-that lady is one tough pill to swallow."

What do you think, Breaking Bad fans? Is there any shot Walt is alive? Let us know in the comments below.
