Walter White is back.
Bryan Cranston steps back into the character he played for five seasons on AMC’s Emmy Award-winning drama Break bad for Pop Corners. Snack brand Frito-Lay teased the reveal on Instagram in December, but waited until today to release the full image of Cranston as White holding a bag of white cheddar chips.
“Breaking soon,” Cranston wrote on his Instagram. And by soon, he means February 12, when the commercial will air as part of this year’s anticipated Super Bowl campaigns. It will be PopCorner’s first Super Bowl spot and in-game commercial.
Bryan Cranston appears as Break bad character Walter White in a new ad for PopCorners slated to debut for the 2023 Super Bowl.
Thanks to Frito-Lay
Cranston won four Emmy Awards for Outstanding Lead Actor for his work as White in the drug drama created by Vince Gilligan. The show ended in 2013 and he has since appeared as the character in El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie and in cameos on the spin-off You better call Saul.
Super Bowl LVII will be played on February 12 at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, with halftime performer Rihanna. The game will air on Fox.
