“Better Call Saul” season 5 is confirmed to arrive however it will now be released on schedule. It was said to have been delayed until next year because Vince Gilligan is busy with the ongoing works for the “Breaking Bad” movie sequel.
It was Sarah Barnett, president of AMC, who announced that “Better Call Saul” season 5 is not returning until 2020. Speaking to Vulture, she said that they need more time and talent to produce a show that will be enjoyed and appreciated by the viewers.
“It’s driven by talent needs, which we would not override if it would result in a worse show," Barnett said.
Further, she shared that after “Better Call Saul” season 5, few more seasons are left before the series sign off. This is because they have already planned from the beginning that the series will not be longer than “Breaking Bad.” Plus, they have already written the end show a long time ago.
"We know clearly the end was already written before the beginning began, the AMC president revealed. "The writers, they have a very particular, very clear sense of the arc of their show."
“Better Call Saul” season 5 showrunner Peter Gould also said, "We are talking about roughly the same number of episodes as Breaking Bad”
“Breaking Bad” completed 62 episodes while “Better Call Saul” has 40 so it means that the latter may conclude in two or more seasons after the fifth installment. Meanwhile, when “Better Call Saul” season 5 returns, Tony Dalton will come back as Lalo and his character has been upgraded to series regular, Deadline reported.
Lalo was first mentioned in “Breaking Bad” season 2 when Saul Goodman (Bob Odenkirk) was first introduced. In “Better Call Saul,” Tony Dalton appeared as Lalo in the last few episodes of season 4 until its finale.
