Bryan Cranston was initially considered for 'Breaking Bad' by top Hollywood actors John Cusack and Matthew Broderick, who both declined the role, leading Vince Gilligan to cast Cranston after seeing his impressive performance in a 'X-Files' episode, which ultimately proved his suitability for the complex role of Walter White.
Gillian Anderson expressed openness to the idea of returning as Dana Scully in a potential reboot of The X-Files, following Ryan Coogler's interest in reviving the series. While acknowledging the possibility, she praised Coogler's talent and hinted at potential involvement. The original series, which ran for 11 seasons, featured Anderson alongside David Duchovny as FBI agents investigating paranormal cases, and a two-season revival aired from 2016 to 2018.
