Vince Gilligan lernte Cranston während der Dreharbeiten der von ihm geschriebenen Akte X-Episode "Die Fahrt" kennen. Als Gilligan seine neue Serie "Breaking Bad" erdachte, schien Cranston als der perfekte Wahl für die Hauptfigur Walter in den Sinn:
- "I was fortunate enough to not know who Bryan Cranston was when he came in and read for us — and I say that ironically, somewhat. This was about 18 months before 'Malcolm in the Middle' came on the air, and we were having a hard time casting the part. What we knew we needed was a great actor who could be scary and very intense and deliver a lot of really horrible, nasty lines. ... And yet, as nasty as he is, you want to feel bad for him when he expires at the end of the episode [of 'The X-Files'].
- And we knew we needed an actor who could pull all of that off. ... And Bryan walked in and nailed it." (Quelle: Vince Gilligan: The Man Behind 'Breaking Bad'
