Better Call Saul Season 7 Confirmation News: Will There Be Another Season?

Peter Gould, the showrunner, revealed about the series on Express: “From day one of Better Call Saul, my dream was to tell the complete story of our complicated and compromised hero, Jimmy McGill – now AMC and Sony are making that dream come true.”

“We couldn’t be more grateful to the fans and critics who are making this journey possible. Next month we start work on the sixth and final season – we’re going to do our damnedest to stick the landing.”

Sarah Barnett, AMC Studios president, added to this by saying, “Green Lighting, a prequel to one of the most iconic series in television history, is one of the boldest swings that AMC has ever taken. But, thanks to the creative genius of Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould, it has also been one of the most rewarding.”

Now, the big question is whether the creators are looking forward to working with the series or not. The release of the final chapter makes everyone wonder about the possibility. Vince Gilligan, the creator, has recently had an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, where he explained the plans of the show, “You’ve got to know when to leave the party.

You don’t want to be the guy with the lampshade on his head… I know I was asked the same thing at the end of Breaking Bad and I gave the same answer, but I need to prove to myself that I’m not a one-trick pony.”

Peter Gould Revealed the Plans for Better Call Saul Season 7!

Talking to The Hollywood Reporter, Peter Gould revealed Bob Odenkirk’s serious medical condition on the set and how he suffered a heart attack while filming for the series.

“There’s no backup plan for your lead [having] a heart attack. That’s impossible. It reminds you that as preoccupied and as important as entertainment feels – and we all feel like it’s life and death as we’re working on these shows; I always feel like I’m on the verge of getting crushed by a boulder – it’s not,” he recalled. “It’s a piece of entertainment.”

Five weeks later, Odenkirk returned to set so that they could finish filming the last few episodes of Better Call Saul. And, as Gould tells it, Bob was raring to go:

“When he was still in the hospital, [Bob] was calling me and saying: ‘Maybe you should send me some scripts.’ Naomi, his wife, was in the background, saying: ‘Don’t send scripts.’ I don’t know if I’ve answered the question about backup plans, but there can be none. We wouldn’t have had a show. We would’ve scrapped the whole thing.”

Are Creators Planning to Release a Movie for Better Call Saul?

While it looks like the story of Better Call Saul is complete, there is a possibility for Better Call Saul to start as a fresh movie. In an interview with Gilligan, he admitted, “I could do more with this universe. And maybe someday I will. Especially if I fail at everything that comes next. Then I’ll come crawling back.”

“Right now, whether there’s more room to grow or not—and there probably is—I feel like it’s time to do something new,” he explained.

“Without naming any names, I look around at some of the worlds, the universes, and the stories that I love, whether they’re on TV or in the movies. And I think there’s a certain point, and it’s hard to define, where you’ve done too much in the same universe. And some universes are much bigger and more elastic. Ours is a very small one, Albuquerque, New Mexico, versus some of these worlds and series of movies and TV shows.”

On the other hand, in June 2022, Dan McDermott, AMC president, hinted at the possibility by saying, “I can tell you that if I could do anything to encourage Vince and Peter to continue in this universe, I would do it.

“I think you’d have to ask them, but the door is always open, and I long for the day my phone rings and Vince, Peter, or our friends at Sony call to say: ‘Hey, I think we have another show set in this universe.'”

“We all know our characters so well having played them for years, so it felt good,” Paul recently told The Hollywood Reporter. “[Jesse] will always have a special place inside of me, but I can confidently say that [Better Call Saul] was the last time we’re going to see Pinkman. So, it was a nice farewell.”

“We came out of, maybe, a lot of people’s favorite show ever and we could’ve been hated for simply trying to do a show. But we weren’t, we were given a chance and hopefully, we made the most of it.”
