El Camino Breaking Bad cast: These 10 characters could join Jesse Pinkman

Jesse Pinkman is back in El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie. The character was last seen fleeing after Walt White (Bryan Cranston) opened fire with an automatic machine gun in incredible final

scenes. But now it has been revealed some familiar faces are expected to join Jesse in the upcoming film.

According to the series creator Vince Gilligan, who has written and directed the film over the past 18 months, the film premieres six years after Breaking Bad, but is set moments after the

series finished.

In the final episode, Walter was dying on the floor after being shot, while Jesse escaped the Aryan Brotherhood compound in his El Camino, and was heading for freedom.

Now, El Camino follows Jesse and what happens to him after he leaves the compound.

But Gilligan also revealed the movie will feature more than 10 familiar characters from the show.

Skinny Pete and Badger, played by Charles Baker and Matt L. Jones, are the first who were revealed to be in the new film.

Badger and Skinny Pete are dealers for Jesse for most of the series, though they both start attending Narcotics Anonymous meetings and start to get clean until they are tempted back with

meth by Jesse.

They are also briefly seen in the finale, when Walt uses them to threaten the Schwartzes and they inadvertently tell him Jesse is alive at the compound.

The third actor who revealed his involvement in the film, Jonathan Banks, who plays Mike Ehrmantraut in both Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul.

In Breaking Bad, Mike works for drug lord Gus as well as Saul, AKA Jimmy McGill.

He is a former Philadelphia police officer who does various jobs, including work as a private investigator, security, cleaner and hitman, and by the end of the series, he has joined Walt and

Jesse after Gus’ death.

At the end of the series, Walt shoots Mike after grilling him for the names of his associates to whom he is sending money.

Walt follows him to the edge of a river where Mike lays down, asking Walt to leave him to die in peace.

It is clear he is dead as he appears in the film as a flashback, as he sits with Jesse and contemplates leaving the drug business.

The next person who was rumoured to be appearing the film was Walter White, who did indeed return to the film despite being dead.

His presence is also in the form of flashback, as he and Jesse speak about their dreams if they were not doing what they were doing.

Though many may have expected his return, Saul Goodman (Bob Odenkirk,) who, since the events of the Breaking Bad finale, has been working as a manager in a Cinnabon in order to fly under the

radar, as we have seen in the show's spin-off Better Call Saul, does not appear in the film.

However, we see Jesse with Todd Alquist (Jesse Plemons) and see some of the captivity he struggled with while he was forced to cook for them.

Other characters who return are Jane Margolis (Krysten Ritter) with whom Jesse speaks after he has made up his mind to leave and go to Alaska, asking Ed the disappearer (Robert Forster) to

help him do it, meaning these two faces appear in the film.

Jesse's parents crop up in the film, with his mother appearing frequently in the first few seasons of Breaking Bad.

As well as these characters, some minor characters also crop up, including Kenny, who helped keep Jesse prisoner with Todd, and Old Joe, who owns the junkyard and fails to help Jesse get rid

of the El Camino in which he drove away from the Aryan Brotherhood's lair.

The film follows Jesse as he tries to make a new life, with the help of Skinny Peter and Badger as well as some of his old partners, such as Ed and Old Joe.

But naturally, Jesse also comes into some difficulty in his bid for freedom, with some old memories both helping and hindering his progress.
