Bryan Cranston is stepping back into the shoes of the character he played for five seasons on AMC’s Emmy Award-winning drama Breaking Bad for PopCorners.
The Frito-Lay snack brand teased the reveal on Instagram in December but waited until today to release the full image of Cranston as White clutching a bag of white cheddar chips.

“Breaking soon,” Cranston wrote on his Instagram. By soon he means February 12, when the commercial is scheduled to air as part of this year’s anticipated Super Bowl campaigns.

It will be PopCorners first Super Bowl spot and in-game commercial.

Cranston won 4 Emmy Awards for outstanding lead actor for his work as White in the drug drama created by Vince Gilligan.

The show wrapped up its run in 2013, and he has since appeared as the character in El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie and in cameos on the spin-off Better Call Saul.

Super Bowl LVII will be played on February 12, at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, with halftime performer Rihanna. The game will air on Fox.
