Breaking Bad star Anna Gunn clears up Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul's cryptic tweets

Alas, the donkeys did not mean what we all thought...

Breaking Bad star Anna Gunn has shot down speculation Aaron Paul and Bryan Cranston were dropping movie hints with their simultaneous donkey tweets.

However, Anna Gunn – who played Skyler White – put a firm end to any speculation over the future for the successful show, revealing that the animal tweets were a nod to a new tequila the pair are bringing out.

“I believe it is a nod to a mezcal tequila that they are bringing out, the two of them, called Dos Hombres,” Gunn told The One Show. “Bryan was going to have a launch party on Cinco de Mayo last month and he promised that there were would be donkeys there.

“I got very excited about that and said I’d bring my kids and then [it didn’t happen].”

Asked outright by host Mel Gierdroyc if the posts were anything to do with a film, Gunn added: “No, I’m sorry!”

Earlier this year, The Hollywood Reporter claimed that Netflix is set to make a film from the successful TV franchise, which also inspired spin-off show Better Call Saul.

Sources told the publication that the future-length movie will centre on Paul’s character, who will reprise his role.

Further details are being kept under wraps but many fans are hoping Cranston will appear in some way after he was the first to confirm it was in the works.

“It's a great story and there are a lot of people who felt that they wanted to see some kind of completion to some of these storylines that were left open [in the series finale],” he told The Dan Patrick Show.

“This idea, from what I'm told, gets into those — at least a couple of the character show were not completed, as far as their journey.”
