Filming for the upcoming sixth and final season of the AMC television series Better Call Saul is almost done. The filming was originally scheduled to begin in September 2020, but it was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. After several hiccups, Esposito said filming would begin in March 2021, which was echoed by Odenkirk in February 2021. Filming for Better Call Saul Season 6 finally began on March 10 in New Mexico.

Unfortunately, two months ago, the show’s lead actor Bob Odenkirk suddenly collapsed from a heart attack while filming for the show. Thankfully, returned to film set in early September.

Now, Better Call Saul Season 6 is gearing for its release. It is expected to premiere in early 2022 in the United States and will consist of 13 episodes.

Giancarlo Esposito who plays Gus Fring said to Collider in a recent interview that he is nearly at the end part of the shootings. There are only “a few loose ends” to film before signing off for the last time.

“Can I say it? Yeah. We're still in the sixth season. I have wrapped most of my acting work. I have a few loose ends to take care of,” said Giancarlo Esposito.

In terms of the plot, Bob Odenkirk believes Better Call Saul Season 6 would change the way viewers had always perceived Breaking Bad. He hinted at Kim Wexler's (Rhea Seehorn) fate. She has been struggling with her partner in her latest ventures. Jimmy's nefarious influence seems to have impacted the beloved lawyer.

Viewers are passionately waiting to see what store in Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould's Better Call Saul Season 6. The series EP Thomas Schnauz stated the writers are working hard and expect that the audience would "rewatch both Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul because of the way we wrote them: we didn't go in with an overall plan, and when we finished writing one episode, we weren't exactly sure what was going to happen next."

The journey of the last five seasons became successful and was acclaimed worldwide for their excellent cinematography, brilliant portrayal of the story and outstanding acting.

Bob Odenkirk (Jimmy McGill / Saul Goodman), Jonathan Banks (Mike Ehrmantraut), Rhea Seehorn (Kim Wexler), Patrick Fabian (Howard Hamlin), Michael Mando (Nacho Varga), Tony Dalton (Lalo Salamanca), and Giancarlo Esposito (Gus Fring) will reprise their roles from previous seasons.

Better Call Saul Season 6 doesn't have an official release date but it will be out in early 2022. Stay tuned to Devdiscourse to get the latest updates on television series.
