Breaking Bad’s Walt Jr. on Crime, Fame & the Show’s Dark Truth | RJ Mitte
RJ Mitte, who played Walt Jr. on Breaking Bad, opens up about getting bullied as a kid and how acting helped him find a way out. In this exclusive interview, he breaks down how he landed the role of Walt Jr., what it was really like filming Breaking Bad, and how closely the show reflects real-life crime. We also talk about how his character mirrors the families of real criminals, where Walt Jr. would be today, and whether the show glamorizes the very world it portrays. This is a must-watch for Breaking Bad fans and anyone who’s ever questioned the line between entertainment and reality.
