The stars of one of the most iconic television shows of the '00s and '10s reunited recently as statues depicting the characters they played were unveiled in the city the show took place in.
Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul attended the unveiling of a set of statues of Walter White and Jesse Pinkman from the hit series Breaking Bad.
Bryan Cranston, who played the main character Walter White, and Aaron Paul, who played his younger sidekick Jesse Pinkman, got to reunite at a special statue unveiling in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
Not only were Cranston and Paul there, but so was the show's creator Vince Gilligan, Albuquerque's mayor Tim Keller, and other local politicians.
The statue stands at the city's convention center, and is made out of bronze.
"While the stories might be fictional [...] jobs are real every single day," Keller told The Associated Press, "The city is also a character. [...] We see ourselves in so many ways, good and bad."
"In all seriousness, no doubt some folks are going to say, 'Wow, just what our city needed.' And I get that," Gilligan said, "I see two of the finest actors America has ever produced. I see them, in character, as two larger-than-life tragic figures, cautionary tales."
And for fans of the show, which was and remains a massive staple in modern pop culture, even producing the successful spinoff prequel Better Call Saul that airs today, it'll be a great monument to visit in order to celebrate a bastion of quality television.
