‘Breaking Bad’ Statues of Walter White and Jesse Pinkman Unveiled in Albuquerque

On Friday, bronze sculptures of Walter White and Jesse Pinkman from the Breaking Bad series were unveiled at the Albuquerque Convention Center.

Created by Trevor Grove, the statues were commissioned by Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan as a gift to Albuquerque for hosting the show.

Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul, who portrayed Walter White and Jesse Pinkman, were both present for the unveiling.

Albuquerque's mayor Tim Keller noted that the success of the shows have generated almost $400 million in production fees and tourism for the city.

The unveiling comes amidst the final season of the spin-off series Better Call Saul, where it is confirmed that Cranston and Paul would return on next Monday's episode titled, "Breaking Bad."
