Fans of Breaking Bad will soon get the chance to see two of television’s most recognisable characters reunited, this time without the Albuquerque desert, the RV or a batch of blue meth between them.
Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul, the actors behind Walter White and Jesse Pinkman, are heading to Australia and New Zealand in January 2027 for a five-city live tour, An Evening With Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul.
The pair will appear together on stage for the first time in Australia, promising an unguarded conversation about the making of Breaking Bad, the characters that transformed their careers and the friendship they forged during five years of filming the acclaimed series.

What to expect from Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul
Cranston and Paul will sit down for an unguarded conversation about Breaking Bad—from the writing and production’s long days to the mistakes, dangerous scenes and moments that had them laughing, as well as those that ended in despair.
They’ll talk about what the series gave them, what it took out of them and the friendship that grew over five years of filming. They’ll also discuss what drives them, their lives away from acting, advice for young performers and, naturally, whether they’ve tried Vegemite.
The pair will also share news about Dos Hombres, the tequila and mezcal venture they co-founded in 2019.
More than a decade on, Breaking Bad still resonates
Cranston and Paul became international stars as Walter White and Jesse Pinkman, whose volatile partnership drove Breaking Bad through five seasons and 62 episodes.
The series has just been named The New York Times’ number one show of the 21st century, based on votes from more than 500 actors, showrunners and other industry figures. It has also won 16 Primetime Emmys and two Golden Globes, including four Emmys for Cranston and three for Paul.
Now, more than a decade after the finale, the pair are returning to the story, to share it in their own words.
