AMC and Sony Pictures Television made it official today, acknowledging that a Breaking Bad spinoff is definitely in the works. Although Breaking Bad is wrapping up its five season run, the Saul Goodman character (played by Bob Odenkirk) will be sticking around on his own show.

According to AMC, the spinoff series will be called Better Call Saul (or at least that’s the current working title). Per the press statement: “Plans call for Saul to be a one-hour prequel that will focus on the evolution of the popular Saul Goodman character before he ever became Walter White’s lawyer.”

No further details were disclosed and there’s no word yet on when this could move forward or where it will air.
