Why Gus From Breaking Bad And Better Call Saul Looks So Familiar
While you were trying to solve the mystery of Kaiser Sose, you probably missed another Giancarlo Esposito appearance. Playing FBI agent Jack Baer, he's the one who first introduces the tale of Sose to the detectives.
Esposito enjoyed making the film and especially loved Benicio Del Toro's strange but genius performance. The actor said, "I really believe that in order to succeed, you have to be willing to fail, and to go to the ultimate level. When Benicio del Toro came on the set of The Usual Suspects after our first reading of the piece, the first day, he comes out and speaks that gibberish language that he was speaking, and I was like, 'Benicio, that's brilliant!' And everybody else said, 'Are you really gonna do that?' I said, 'F*** yeah, he's gonna do that! Because he's brave!'"
