It’s kinda great to picture Anthony Hopkins bingeing out for two weeks solid to watch the entire series…
Anthony Hopkins wasn’t a Breaking Bad fan until just a few weeks ago, but after a marathon session bringing him from episode one through the series’ conclusion, he’s become simply stunned by it. “Your performance as Walter White was the best acting I have seen — ever,” Hopkins allegedly writes in an email to Bryan Cranston, which was published yesterday by actor Steven Michael Quezada, who played Hank’s partner, Steven Gomez. “This work of yours is spectacular — absolutely stunning,” Hopkins writes.
The compliment should mean something coming from Hopkins, who is widely considered to be among the finest actors around. While Hopkins begins by commending Cranston alone, he continues to express his love of the entire series and its full cast. “What is extraordinary, is the sheer power of everyone in the entire production,” Hopkins writes. “It was like a great Jacobean, Shakespearian, or Greek Tragedy.”
