Bob Odenkirk would 'love to do more' Nobody movies
Bob Odenkirk he would "love to do more" Nobody films. The Breaking Bad star led the cast of the first action movie in 2021 and has returned for a sequel - Nobody 2 - which hits cinemas on Friday (15.08.25) and Bob is adamant he wants to return to the role again in future but he's currently focused on the release of upcoming crime thriller Normal and then wants to take a break from action to focus on comedy. He told The Hollywood Reporter: "I'd do more [Nobody movies]. I'd love to do more of it, but I don't think I'm going to dig right in. "I have another action film called Normal that's coming out [in September], so that's already in the can. "But, right now, I think I want to do some comedy if they'll let me ... " He added: "I would do more [Nobody character] Hutch. I would do a third or fourth [Nobody] film. "It would be about the journey of the family and the tensions that change as you move from one chapter to the next. "You tell yourself: 'This is going to be it now. I'm going to enjoy this chapter of my life and I'm going to be carefree'. But then you find that it has just as many frustrations and shortcomings as the last chapter." In Nobody 2, Bob reprises his role as family man and former assassin Hutch, who is seen taking his family on vacation before being drawn back into action-packed drama and the actor admits it was difficult finding he right plot for the second film. He told the publication: "We played around with different stories for Nobody 2, and it was hard to find a story that felt right. "I kept asking myself: 'What is the real reason people liked the first one so much? What is it?' "And I didn't mean the obvious stuff like the fights being good and a little more visceral than what you're used to seeing. "At the core of Nobody was this guy, his family and the tensions within it that all seemed authentic ... "We wanted to have Hutch take his family to a place [called Plummerville], which, in his mind, is the coolest place [from his childhood] ... "We wanted to have that series of disappointments that can happen when you're a parent and you take your kids on this trip that you're so excited about doing. "The unimpressive waterpark is then closed when you get there, and you even booked the wrong hotel rooms. You didn't think twice about putting the two kids in the same room. You just weren't thinking, and you go: 'S***, this is supposed to be fun. F****.' "

Bob Odenkirk recalls Better Call Saul heart attack
Bob Odenkirk "turned grey right away" after suffering a heart attack on the set of Better Call Saul. The 62-year-old actor has recalled how he was lucky that co-stars Ray Campbell and Patrick Fabian were nearby after he suffered a medical emergency during filming for the Breaking Bad spin-off in 2021 as he likely would have died had the incident happened in his trailer. Bob told Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend: "It was during Covid shooting, so we were separate from the crew. "And luckily, I didn't go to my trailer. If I'd gone to my trailer, I wouldn't be here, because they don't bother you (in the trailer)." Odenkirk recalled how Campbell and Fabian's screams for help were initially mistaken as laughter at first due to the social distancing provisions in place on the set. He said: "It took a few seconds to realise people were screaming." Bob was grateful to the show's medical officer Rosa Estrada as she "immediately" began CPR after learning that no defibrillator would be available for 15 minutes. The Nobody actor later had two stents put in his coronary arteries after suffering the widow-maker heart attack but has no memory of the time he spent in hospital. He said: "It was just a blank... I'm leaving the hospital a week later. That's my first memory is talking to the doctor on my exit interview. So I was there for a week. I don't have any memory of the hospital at all." Bob previously discussed how his heart attack had ended up giving him a massive boost as it provided him with the inspiration needed to take advantage of his second chance at life. The Emmy-winning star said: "I came out of it with a strangely fresh energy towards my whole life, like I was born again. Like: 'Hey, everybody! ... Let's go back to work and make stuff!'" He added: "I really want to stay in touch with what happened there because it really was a great reconnection to being alive. And so I'd love to ruminate on it every day and try to reconnect." Bob previously credited his daughter Erin with helping during his recovery as she left him notes in the style of Christopher Nolan's movie Memento after he woke up every day struggling to remember previous events. He told Entertainment Tonight: "You made a chart for me of what happened the last week. "Every day I woke up and I didn't know what had happened to me or kind of almost what was happening, and Erin made a nice chart it was her version of the movie Memento, where I could look up and see: 'You had a heart attack, these people visited, then you came to, you had the surgery.'"

Bob Odenkirk admits to being 'too hard' on Saturday Night Live
Bob Odenkirk "had a lot of attitude" when he joined Saturday Night Live. The 62-year-old star served as a writer on the long-running TV comedy series between 1987 and 1991, but Bob admits that his attitude towards the show has evolved over time. He told Entertainment Weekly: "I was too hard on the show. "I had a lot of attitude when I got hired there, like, 'This show could be better, this show could be Monty Python, this should be more cutting edge, this should be more dangerous.' And I was frustrated by it not representing purely my point of view. I wanted it to be me, my show." Bob now realises that his ambitions were unrealistic. He said: "It's not my show! It's a show that is shared by everyone who's in that cast, and everyone who's in that writing staff, and it's shared by generations, and not one generation. "Everybody in America watches it, and it's a reference point for everyone. I think the 50th just made me more aware [than] ever of the amazing work that's been done there." Bob's attitude towards Saturday Night Live has changed as he's aged, with the actor now more aware of what is and isn't possible. He said: "It's a bigger challenge than I thought it was when I worked there. "When I worked there I was 25, I was like, 'C'mon, dammit! We can do better! This is easy!' And it literally was the years since I've left that I went, 'Wait a second, that show is almost impossible to do at all.'" Bob would actually love to host the TV show one day. He shared: "I would love that opportunity. I have mad respect for the effort of that show, and I would dream of being able to host." Bob has already spoken to Saturday Night Live bosses about hosting the show, and he remains on friendly terms with the cast and crew. The actor said: "There's been conversation about it. They don't have me locked out. I'm friends with everybody there, and I know so many of the writers, and I know so many of the actors. It's just part of my life."
