Better Call Saul: Everything We Know So Far

7. There's No Hank

Sadly, one iconic Breaking Bad character who will not be reprising his role is Hank Schrader, played by Dean Norris, who is currently starring in the second season of Under The Dome and who expressed his excitement to see €“ but not star in €“ the show: "I don't think they'll let me do a little cable show. I think that experience was that experience. I'm not a big fan of kind of revisiting something that has already been done. But I think it's going to be awesome. So I can't wait to see it." With the focus presumably shifting to Goodman's dynamic with his criminal clients who are already in trouble, and the likelihood that drug crime will be only one aspect of the criminal activity depicted, the DEA won't play as much of a central role, which would explain Hank's absence, but there's surely going to be some police presence to replace Hank, who will leave a considerable hole in the cast.
