Would you mind playing piano in a scene?” I said “absolutely.” I worked for the rest of that month three hours a day working on playing that entire song perfectly. They called me about a month before, and said “we noticed you played piano.

STORY: ‘Breaking Bad’ Writer on ‘Hard-Fought’ Finale: ‘We Put it All on the Line’ We took a lunch break and there was a piano in the back room. While we were shooting in that church, there was a piano in one of the back rooms. We were shooting the narcotics anonymous scenes where Badger and I are trying to sell meth. I held that in the back of my head for a while. I had heard one of the writers talking about how they watch the actors behind the scenes to pick up clues about them that they can use in the writing. How did that come about?īaker: I made that happen. THR: Last year, Skinny Pete plays the piano, which was a surprise. Is this different in that it’s a funny role?īaker: I try to play it serious and straight, but I know when we finish and everyone in the crew is laughing their heads off while we’re doing the scenes, we know we’ve got something. When it’s as completely out there and ridiculous as it is, the more serious you play it, the more funny it comes across. Are you aware there is humor as you shoot?īadger: I’m aware there is humor in the scenes.

We don’t really feel like it’s our place to try to get it out of him. We know that something is affecting him, but we don’t really know what is affecting him. I think that’s why we work so hard at taking him away from it.

We’re kind of trying to be respectful of his privacy and just trying to be there for him. Does Skinny Pete notice Jesse has changed?īaker: He’s noticed the change, but, like they say, ignorance is bliss. THR: In that scene, the point is that you guys are happy and Jesse is miserable. He would help us with some beats, some comedic timing, which he’s brilliant at, but for the most part he let us do what we do. That was the first time I’d worked with Bryan as a director. Bryan mostly let us go with it to see what we do. What kind of direction did Bryan Cranston give you on that?Ĭharles Baker: Those scenes come from Peter Gould, most of the time. The Hollywood Reporter: In the premiere you and Badger (Matt Jones) have this lengthy conversation about Star Trek.

PHOTOS: ‘Breaking Bad’ Principals Strike a Pose for THR’s Cover Shootįind THR‘s full conversation with Baker below, where he talks about what makes Bryan Cranston a master actor, what the cast and crew were like shooting the final episodes, and which piece of Skinny Pete memorabilia might end up in the Smithsonian (seriously!). “Somewhere in the middle of the third season I told the writers ‘If you kill me, make sure I’m crying, make it an emotional scene, because it’s going to be hard for me not to go ‘I don’t want to die’. “Every time I got a script, the first thing I checked was, ‘do I live?'” he says. He isn’t saying whether Skinny Pete ends up dying in the final episodes (the second of eight airs Sunday on AMC), but he does reveal it’s something he’s thought about since the early days of the show. “Most of my close friends who knew me before I was on Breaking Bad, they laugh hysterically just seeing me play this character,” Baker says.
