Aaron Paul blessed fans with another Reddit AMA over the weekend to promote his new film Triple 9, which also stars Kate Winslet, Woody Harrelson, Gal Gadot, and more. Of course, people were rarely actually focussing on the new movie, with Paul best known in recent years as the bitch-loving badass Jesse Pinkman on television’s Breaking BadBut if his AMA answers are anything to go by, he seems like a pretty chill dude, and was happy to engage with his fans more about his star turn on TV rather than the star-studded movie that hit the cinemas in the US this week. Of course, a Reddit AMA isn’t really a success unless you can get some sort of scoop from the participant and Paul did seem to hint at a probably appearance in Breaking Bad spin-off Better Call Saul. Take a quick look at some of our favourite insights below and check out the full, epic thread here.

You can also catch Aaron Paul in Triple 9, which releases in Australia on March 3.

01. On whether he's carried any of Jesse Pinkman into his real life

I don’t know that I really carried anything from Jesse with me into my day-to-day. I definitely say “bitch” a lot more — that was never really a word in my vocabulary that I used. Now — I’ve said this before — I feel like it’s a term of endearment.

You know, I’m the one, sole person that lived and breathed every moment of Jesse Pinkman’s life, onscreen and off. So while shooting the show I would have nightmares as Jesse, which was interesting. But I kinda liked it for some strange reason.

But yeah, I say “bitch” a little bit more. A lot more. Way more

02. On how he feels being called bitch all the time

You know, you gotta take it with stride. I feel when people call me a bitch, I think it’s a term of endearment… I hope!

Breaking Bad became such a cultural phenomenon, and I feel so blessed to have been a part of it. I’ve had grandmothers come up to me and ask me to call them a bitch, which I think is awesome! You know what I mean?

A little odd, but, pretty great as well.

03. On a potential "Better Call Saul" cameo

Crabcakes and football? That sounds awesome.

Yeah of course! I’m such a huge fan of Better Call Saul, and of course everyone behind the show. So, who knows?

… maybe I already shot it?

… it might be airing this season?

I don’t know.

Well, actually, I do know, but you’ll have to watch and see. But yeah, I’d absolutely be opened to it and we have discussed the possibility

04. On the perks of voice acting over IRL acting

I love voice acting, because normally I look like shit, and so I can go into work and not have to deal with the whole make-up of it all… trying to make me look somewhat presentable. So I can go to work in my pajamas, and hang out. I can read my lines rather than memorize them.

05. On where he think Jesse Pinkman is now

God, I think there’s 2 stories.

I’d like to think Jesse got away. I like to think he kept driving. But we all know he has no money, he gave it all away, and we also know his fingerprints are all over everything where Walt was found dead. They’re gonna be searching high and low for Jesse, so I don’t know. I like to think he was building something in Alaska…but he could be locked away in a prison somewhere. But we don’t like to think about that version of the show.

So, I think he’s living happy on a lake somewhere in Alaska, fishing a lot, making things out of wood, probably kicked the habit of meth.
