Every Time Bryan Cranston Played Walter White Outside Of Breaking Bad

Bryan Cranston, renowned for his iconic portrayal of Walter White in the critically acclaimed series Breaking Bad, has continued to immerse himself in the character outside of the show. He appeared in the prequel series Better Call Saul in 2022, reprising his role in episodes 11 and 13 of Season 6. Cranston also returned to the character in the stand-alone film El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie in 2019.

Beyond these projects, he has appeared in various other works outside the Breaking Bad universe. In 2013, Cranston lent his voice to a Seth Rogen-led Funny or Die sketch, where he portrayed Walter White after Rogen committed a series of crimes. He also made a surprise guest appearance on Saturday Night Live in 2016, where he humorously recounted his imaginary appointment to head the Drug Enforcement Agency, referencing Walter White's famous line.

The Simpsons referenced Breaking Bad indirectly in Season 24, Episode 17, with Walter and Jesse watching the episode on their iconic couch. Additionally, Cranston has appeared in multiple TV advertisements, including an Esurance commercial in 2015 and a PopCorners commercial in 2023, both featuring Walter White and Jesse Pinkman cooking. Most recently, he appeared in a 2024 New Mexico anti-littering campaign titled Breaking Bad Habits.
