First of all, make no mistake: Walt White will be going full badass for the series' final run. With fried-chicken entrepreneur/meth baron Gus Fring out of the way, White is ready to fully make the transformation from mild-mannered science teacher to the new boss in town.
"This year, I gotta tell you, what you're gonna see new is Walt winning," Gilligan says in the preview. "Gus Fring is dead, and Walt is the kingpin."

"[Hank] knows it's not over, and he's not going to give up until he catches Heisenberg," says Dean Norris, who plays Schrader.
And, yes; while previous seasons have set expectations ridiculously high, they are about to get surpassed with the upcoming season.
"Just when you think it can't get any bigger, badder, darker, it all does," says Anna Gunn, who portrays Walt's wife Skyler White.
