Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Amazingly, more than 10 years since the series finale of Breaking Bad there’s still an insatiable desire for content within that world, and one perfect option for a prequel series would be to focus on the early history of Gus Fring. However, to achieve this, a daunting task must be completed, and that’s recasting Giancarlo Esposito with an actor capable of living up to his iconic performance.

With impressive supporting roles in movies like Straight Outta Compton and The Tomorrow War, Keith Power has exactly the kind of up-and-coming quality needed to truly shine in a Breaking Bad prequel. Having already showcased his acting chops across film and television, including a main role in the thriller series What/If, Powers has both the looks and the skill to lead a Gus Fring series focused on the Los Pollos Hermanos founder in his early 30s.

6 Caleb McLaughlin Caleb McLaughlin is known as Lucas Sinclair in Stranger Things Close As Stranger Things heads toward its grand finale, it’s only natural to wonder what projects the cast will be a part of next, and one great role for Caleb McLaughlin, who played Lucas Sinclair, would be Gus Fring. At just 22 years old, if McLaughlin was to be considered for this Breaking Bad prequel, it would focus on the earliest years of Fring’s adulthood.

3 RJ Cyler RJ Cyler is known as Earl in Me and Earl and the Dying Girl After receiving critical acclaim for his role in Me and Earl and the Dying Girl in 2015, RJ Cyler appeared in across film and TV in works including The Harder They Fall, Scream: Resurrection, and Swamp Thing. However, Cyler has yet to truly showcase his skill as the leading man of a television series, and one perfect part for this would be as Gus Fring in a Breaking Bad prequel series.
