Not impeded by the stunning graphics used by Ubisoft's cinematic trailer of Far Cry 6, the role of Anton Castillo isn't the first gaming performance Esposito has done. This is where, rather than auditioning for a role he feels suited for, roles are starting to be written with Esposito in mind.īy now, Esposito has fully and completely grounded himself as the mastermind.

When the spinoff titled Better Call Saulwas set into motion, a much deeper dive is seen for Gus, thanks to a very quick decision by the writers to add his character back into the mix. Gus Fring is always looking for the most efficient solution to his problems, whether it's dealing a violent punishment to Walter and Jesse or coldly eliminating one of his closest associates. He approaches murder, not as a moral dilemma, but a business obstacle. As the head of a major drug scheme, this is where the sophisticated villain was truly set in stone. His role as Gustavo began with the second to the fourth seasons of Breaking Bad. To this day, not only is this one of Esposito's most beloved roles, acting as a sort of symbol for his career, but an establishment of all he can do. Gus Fring is, of course, Esposito's most renowned role, and perhaps the biggest turning point in his recognition as an actor.
