It was beautiful while it lasted

The Breaking Bad universe is known for its cruel and abrupt character finales. Most of the time, when a character starts getting lovable, the show infamously kills them off. This was also with the case of Lalo. Interestingly, GTA also follows the same pattern. With characters like Lance Vance, Johnny Klebitz, Roman Bellic, Trevor, etc., being killed off as a part of storytelling.

Thus, it is very likely that fans could think of something like this. According to some fan theories, Tony can befit the role of a voice actor for GTA, and if it is true, then it will surely hype things up!

Notably, Giancarlo Esposito, who played the role of Gus Fring in the Breaking Bad universe, also became a video game antagonist for Far Cry 6. Thus, it wouldn’t be the first time any fictional character from the Gilligan universe might get the attention of game developers.
